I bought this before reading the mixed reviews on the many KitchenAid silicone items. I thought about returning it after reading about how food sticks and the plastic smell while cooking. There were other reviews, however, that were just the opposite.

I sprayed the Loaf Pan with a non-stick spray pryor to use and the Loaf Pan worked beautifully. There was no sticking nor was there any plastic smell. I think the key is the non-stick spray. I believe that the bad reviews related to those not using a non-stick spray - with or without flour.

I cooked meat loaf and decided to remove the meat loaf from the Loaf Pan before cutting. I reduced the rating by one star because I don't think the soft silicone is "knife friendly".

Can't understand why people are worried about cutting brownies or something like that in this pan. Just use a table knife! Actually, I just tried cutting my silicone with a sharp knife and it wouldn't make a mark.

I'm able to microwave my cake (for 2-3 min, till it rise-up) before put it into the regular oven for 5-10 min. By doing this, it save me a lot of time & energy; now I am able to make the cake in 20min. This is great. But remember, you'll still need the non-stick cooking spray.

These silicone baking dishes are great except for one flaw that can be major or minor depending on your personal use: You can't cut anything in these pans. If you like to bake something and cut it while it is still in the pan, forget it with these, because the knife will cut right through the pan.

I haven't used this more then a handful of times. It isn't the most useful size of the silcone baking products I have bought for what I usually cook. When I do have the time to make bread, I have to say this is so easy to clean. The bread pops right out. If someone makes alot of bread then this is a must have.
