My first observation while taking this strange pan out of the box was how big it looked, it measures 13 x 15.5 and another 2 inches counting the handles, also a generous 1.5 deep. The thing is rubbery and flexible and I was skeptical. The sled is great for keeping it stable. I very lightly oiled it rubbing with an oiled paper towel (PAM would work well) as the instructions said and put my whole wheat bread dough into each compartment. Into the oven it went and WOW did it come out great! The loaves puffed up all around even on the bottom, they pulled away from the pan and fell right out! I tried mango bread yesterday without oiling it, it did try to stick a little where the fruit touched the pan, so DO OIL IT LIGHTLY, you also need to cool quick bread a bit as usual before unmolding, unlike yeast bread which jumped right out. I also like that the sides are straight up not angled so when you slice the loaves you get a nice square slice! Nice you can work the pan off the loaf pushing the pan inside out thanks to it's flexible nature. I also like that 3 mini loaves is exactly the recipe for 1 regular loaf, baking time was just a hair shorter then for regular loaves at the same temp. You will be amazed how nice they rise up and evenly cook. Order several when they are only 9.99, they make nice gifts!

When I purchased this item I had been looking for something to make smaller loaves of bread since I had a zucchini bread recipe that overflowed in my traditional loaf pan. I used this the last time I made it and it works like a dream! I sprayed the area down with non-stick spray before putting in the zucchini bread and it popped right out with no breakage when it had finished cooking. Cleanup was so simple. I am now looking to buy more of this type of product (silicone with the sled).

Worth twice the price! Would make a wonderful gift!
