In my twenties I bought no less than three non-stick cookie sheets while my Grandmother (an avid baker) was still using her aluminum bakeware from the 40's. I later inherited a few of her aluminum pans and I couldn't believe the difference. My cookies were no longer crispy and brown on the outside and soft in the middle...they were baked evenly. I was also able to scub the sheet and place it in the dishwasher, something you can't do with non-stick varieties. Additionally, there is no danger of having teflon flake into your baked goods. Aluminum is tried and tested and provides professional results. Buy the right cookie sheet and buy it once! I have both the half and quarter sheets by Nordic as well as the 13x9 pan. I'm a devoted fan!

This is a great set. I didn't realize I would also be getting a shallow pan that I could make jelly rolls and HUGE cookies on. Great buy - great product!

Perfect results when baking and cleans up easier than non-stick. Doesn't darken or warp in the oven.

I've owned a 9 x 13 cake pan with a metal lid for years, so I decided a new covered pan would be nice to have. Well! Was I surprised! Right away I noticed the difference in size. This pan is at least 3/4 of an inch shorter in length, and the width isn't 9 inches either. I can set it inside my old pan. This reminds me of the canned goods we buy now that are 14-1/2 ounces. They used to be 16 oz. cans. I wasn't aware that a pan could still be labeled as a 9 x 13 when it certainly is NOT that size. That's false advertising in my book.

My old metal lid clamps down on the cake pan I already had. This plastic one does not snap on. It looks as if it would fit more securely, but it doesn't. If you're expecting airtight storage, you won't get it with this lid.

If I had purchased this pan from a local store, I'd be taking it right back because I wanted a nice lid. Oh, yes, there are also bubbles in the plastic that make it less attractive to me.

Also, the description says you can wash the pan in a dishwasher, but the label says to wash in soapy water before use. It doesn't say the product is dishwasher safe. You also have to grease the pan before each use. Because it is an aluminum pan, I would not want to put it in the dishwasher because that will cause discoloration and pitting, so I don't mind handwashing it. I'll have to see how it holds up to occasional use. Somehow I doubt it's half as good as my old one.

This is an awesome set. The pan is well built (nice and sturdy!) and the lid snaps on with ease. It cooks very evening and does not overcook the bottom. Highly recommended!

I received these pans as a wedding gift. really liked them initially, especially the lids. two months later, and two of the pans have developed holes in them. not scratches, but actual holes through the wall of the pan. i have no idea how this happened- i can't see how food or dishwashing soap could possibly be so corrosive. obviously this is a major flaw with this product.

The quarter sheet pan is absolutely the best for baking Brownies. I've had one for several years and just bought a 2nd so I can do two batches at once. They come out nice and moist. To cut your Brownies neatly, use a plastic knife.

The Cake Pan measures 13" x 9 1/2" x 2 1/2". The Quarter Sheet Pan measures 13" x 9 1/2" x 1". These are excellent pans for baking. The bottoms and sides of my cakes and brownies are perfect. The steel reinforced edges keep the pans from warping. I have used lower quality aluminum pans which have warped...these do not warp. Since they are aluminum, they do scratch easily. Clean up is easy--I always handwash my pans since you are not supposed to put aluminum in the dishwasher anyway. I was so pleased with my pans that I purchased a set for my mother.

cakes turn out great in this pan. quarter sheets are used to roast veggies. easy clean up. and cake pan cover is a plus. love nordicware products
