I bought this to cook all the foods I want crispy all around. I love USA Pans. I’ve been replacing all my pans with them. They are totally non stick. Heavier weight for even cooking. You need to hand wash to preserve the non stick. But don’t let that discourage you. It’s supper easy and quick with just a swipe of a sponge or nylon scrubber. Nothing sticks! The grid is sturdier than most. There is support in the middle that keeps it from sagging in the middle. I am such a fan of USA Pans. They are not expensive. Give them a try. You will not be disappointed, in fact you will be pleasantly surprised at the quality. Read more
I bought this pan specifically for making crispy baked chicken (from a link in the recipe I had found). Works great to let the fat drip off and allow air circulation all around the skin-on chicken legs I baked. They came out delicious with minimal prep needed (buy skin-on chicken leg quarters, rub on oil, salt, pepper and other seasonings of your choice, place on baking sheet with rack and bake). Cleanup of the sheet is easy and straightforward. Cleanup of the rack is a little more time-consuming because I move the soapy dish cloth in multiple directions over every inch of each side, giving special attention to the feet in case any food is stuck in them. Then I run water over every spot, while rubbing with my hand to ensure all the soap is off. Then I examine carefully under good lighting and touch-up any missed spots. The non-stick coating definitely helps to make cleaning this set easier, as I've been able to clean them without any soaking or heavy scrubbing needed. Just time-consuming because there are so many nooks and crannies and I'm thorough to go over everything well. I am really glad I have a large sink to wash/rinse these in, or I'd have soap and water splashed everywhere with a smaller sink. After washing/rinsing I towel dry immediately (well, the pan at least... the grid gets more of a blot-dry). Overall, very happy with this set. Seems sturdy, cleans up well for something with so many nooks and crannies, and makes yummy crispy baked chicken. Read more
This pan is great! Used this for a 17lb spatchcock turkey. It fit perfectly and clean up was a breeze! Everything rinsed off without needing to scrub! Read more
Very sturdy this is a great heavy weight pan. Read more
I recently purchased the USA Pan 1607CR Bakeware Extra Large Sheet Baking Pan and Bakeable Nonstick Cooling Rack and I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase. As someone who loves to bake, I was looking for a high-quality pan and rack set that would help me achieve perfect results every time, and these have definitely delivered. One of the things I love most about the USA Pan baking pan is its size. It's extra large, which makes it perfect for baking big batches of cookies or other treats. The nonstick coating is also top-notch – my baked goods release easily and come out perfectly every time. The pan is also made of heavy-duty aluminized steel, which ensures even heat distribution and prevents warping. The included nonstick cooling rack is also a great addition. It's the perfect size for the pan and it's made of sturdy wire that supports heavy baked goods without bending. The nonstick coating makes it easy to remove cookies and other treats, and it's also great for roasting vegetables and other dishes. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with the USA Pan 1607CR Bakeware Extra Large Sheet Baking Pan and Bakeable Nonstick Cooling Rack and I highly recommend them to anyone who loves to bake. They're a high-quality and durable set that will help you achieve perfect results every time. Read more
Good firm/sturdy construction. Been used and abused; didn't warp, scratch, and held up well. Read more
It's extremely hard to determine a pan's quality by looking at pictures. I was watching a bacon cooking demo on a social media chanel using this pan and highly recomnending it for making 'very crispy' bacon. The full sheet pan is very heavy and large, bordering on awkward, which may be an issue for some people. If that's the case, it may prove easier to buy the 'half sheet' size. As-is, the full sheet size will barely fit in a regular sized sink standing-up, if that helps. The baking screen that fits in the pan is impressive as it is non-stick. The squares on the screen are relatively small however, which is great for cooking, but they do make clean-up somewhat more difficult. Keeping oven heat lower, spraying Pam on the screen and using foil on the pan bottom helps immensly. Being slightly on the large side, it will fit an entire pack of bacon on the screen's surface, with a little bit of room left over. The pan itself is very, very sturdy and relatively deep, providing very even heat, there's zero flexing or movement compared to using thinner baking pans. Because clean-up time is a mild pain, I tend to cook two packs of bacon back-to-back in the same run. Overall, very impressed. Read more
I absolutely love this pan! It is durable and handwashes well, though you do have to spend a little time with the rack if you cook meats such as bacon or chicken. But this is to be expected. I have baked cookies without the rack and there is no sticking whatsoever. Definitely read the instructions that comes with this pan as I feel this will help it last a very long time. Read more
