Five Star Reviews: | 89% Finally the perfect size mat! January 15, 2017 I bought some amazing large aluminum baking sheets but found it difficult to find mats that would fit the entire pan. The pans are half the size of a commercial pan. I took a chance on these mats in hopes they would be the right size and they fit perfectly!!! The mats reach every corner leaving none of the pan exposed. I cook everything from veggies to cookies on the mats and never had anything stick. They clean up beautifully!!! With four pans and all the baking I do these mats have saved me tons of money in not having to purchase parchment paper that never fit. I will buy more should I ever get additional pans. Great nonstick cooking. Excellent for homemade pizzas too. July 30, 2016 Have had a chance to use these a few times this week and they work great. What I really like is that they automatically release things that would normally stick. I like to make little low carb pizzas out of healthy tortillas. Typically, when the cheese runs off the side a bit it gets crusty and sticks to the pan so I have to scrape the pizza free with a spatula. Now that I'm using the mat, it actually pops up off the edge a bit and helps form a better edge to the pizza. They're super easy to clean and haven't put off any smell or flavor that I can detect. Will probably get another set to have some extras. Recommended for Baking Macarons July 24, 2016 Thank you, Max from Velasco! When I saw that you answered customers’ questions, that impressed me as much as the price. Soon after the silicone mats were delivered, I also received an email asking me for a review. I didn’t review them at that time because I wanted to use the mats twice in order to make a determination of how effective they were.These are fine silicone mats. I’ve only used them to bake French macarons. My macarons turned out well. I now prefer silicone mats to parchment paper. The mats are easy to wash and dry.Tip: If you want your mat[s] to be dry, roll each one between two towels. In less than a minute, you’ll have a dry mat. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is for the mats to be clean and dry when baking macarons! I have seen some silicone baking mats others had and ... April 17, 2016 I have seen some silicone baking mats others had and was reluctant to buy some for my baking endeavors but took the time to read the customer reviews and chose one. The Silicone Baking Mats by Velesco were of surprising quality considering the price I paid. They are thick, soft, flexible and appear to be durable. Nothing about them feels or appears to be cheap. I also use these to put my par-boiled Manicotti shells on in preparing (stuffing) them for the oven to be baked. Nothing sticks to them. If you purchase these don't be so narrow-minded to think they are just for baking a bunch of rolls on, they seem to have many uses, in my opinion. Great baking mats very well made November 23, 2015 I used to work at subway as a teen and had always remember using something similar to these baking mats at work to bake the cookies and bread on they were fantastic . Being in my 30's with 4 kids and baking a lot for them I wanted to find and order some baking mats so I searched long and hard and debated between which baking mats to buy off of amazon . Finally I decided on these which looked very much like what I remember using in the past . I am so glad I selected these as my choice they are exactly what I was looking for and are very durable and well made . My cooked don't burn on the bottom and I don't have to spray a ton of cooking spray and saturate my food with all the extra oils and fat anymore . These are very easy to clean if any food at all left on them it just wipes right off with no scrubbing or any hassle . I'm very please with these baking mats thank you . Works as advertised November 5, 2015 These sheets work exactly as represented. They fit a half sheet baking pan, lying flat without curling. With a little fiddling they can also line a smaller pan like a roaster. I've used them under several kinds of foods, ranging from frozen fish sticks to beef roasts. In each case the mat was a heck of a lot easier to clean than the pan I lined with it would have been. They seem inert, with no detectable flavor change for the food cooked in contact with them. They also seem durable, with no change in appearance or texture after several uses. Given the bargain price, I recommend them highly. | 80% Clean up nicely! May 31, 2017 Learned the hard way you can't put aluminum in the dishwasher. Bought these as a replacement and I will take care of them the right way! I have a 3/4 sheet from Nordicware as well - they feel pretty sturdy compared to other brands of aluminum pans I've purchased. I will say the 3/4 pan warped just a bit and started "bonging" after a few months, but it's really not a big deal. It's not at all to the point where it's making the pan too wavy. I highly recommend the Amazon silicone baking mats!! FANTASTIC PANS! December 29, 2016 Love these pans! I was so sick and tired of my cookie sheets, that sometimes tend to pop up on one corner. I have bought so many different kinds and still have never been happy with them, even with using parchment sheets. They never seems to heat evenly. So I saw these and took a chance and bought 2 of them. These pans are heavy. So far we have only used them to bake Christmas cookies. But what a difference. . .these pans distribute the heat evenly and round cookies came out perfectly. We were amazed that we no longer had guess at the length of bake time -- after the first couple of batches, we realized that we could then perfectly time the cooking to exactly 8 minutes per sheet for drop cookies, and 7 minutes for shapes. I will be going back to see if this company make other types of pans out of this same material. Hopefully I can then throw out every pie tin, cake pan, and sheet pan. Best cookie sheet ever! November 19, 2016 This is an update of my original review (if I left one). I have had these half sheet pans for about 10 months. I have bought so many high priced "commercial grade" cookie sheets in the past that I hesitated to buy these. HOWEVER... I am so happy with them that I don't think I will ever buy another brand - but also because I may never have to. The attached photo is what they look like today, after heavy use all summer (I sell baked goods every weekend from April through October.) I do always use a cookie sheet liner or a piece of parchment, but even so, I've never had pans look this good after this much use. They clean up like a dream and the NEVER do the "spring" thing in the oven. I can't give 10 stars, so I'll give 5. So glad I finally found the right size I was looking ... December 29, 2015 The prefect pan to make Texas sheet cakes in!! So glad I finally found the right size I was looking for. I've made 3 different cakes in it and I just love it!! Jelly roll is the size to buy! December 14, 2015 I love the jelly roll size. Two of these fit perfectly in the oven on the rack. They are much easier to clean than one huge pan, plus easier to store inside cabinets. It is very well-made with measurements exactly as described. These are by far the most frequently used item in my kitchen. Cooks evenly, wipes clean easily, nice weight to it, great pa! November 4, 2015 I bought this pan for making pumpkin rolls. This pan cooks evenly distributes heat resulting in a perfectly cooked cake for my pumpkin rolls!! It's also very easily cleaned! It's a little lighter pan and its aluminum so it did scratch already, just a little scratch, but other than that I am super happy with it!! I might even buy another one because they're the perfect size for my pumpkin rolls and very reasonably priced! If I didn't notice a scratch the first time I used it, I would've given it a 5 star rating!Update: I just made my orange cookies and they cooked soo evenly!!! Every time I've ever made them on other cookie sheets, the bottom was always brown and cooked more! On this pan the bottoms were PERFECT!! They were the same color as the rest of the cookies!! So I am taking this from a 4 star rating to a 5 start!!! So what it had a stratch!!! | 80% Workhorses in the kitchen March 21, 2017 Love this sheet! I roasted butternut squash in maple syrup to see how the sheet handled it. It was a gunky mess - parts where the maple syrup collected while in the oven were thick and burnt. After I transferred the squash to a different pan to cool, I started to clean this baking sheet. The darkened maple syrup came off within seconds. I couldn't believe it. I thought that surely the sheet was ruined, but that wasn't the case. It came off just running under warm/hot water in the sink. I did use a sponge with dishwashing soap on the darker/thicker spots, but didn't have to exert a lot of effort to remove the rest. After a couple minutes of cleaning in the sink it looked like it had never been used. Since then, I've been hooked. I love this baking sheet, and am SO glad I bought two. Clean up is easy, and cooking/baking with them is super easy. They're a great size for larger quantities of cookies, or veggies, and have held up really well to regular use. I'm really happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend others to purchase to try for themselves. A reliable kitchen workhorse. March 1, 2017 These Nordic Ware pans are kitchen workhorses. I have three sizes in my kitchen now, the quarter, the half, and now the large. They are all made from the same durable aluminum. They clean up beautifully and they last. They heat evenly and beautifully. And, at this price, if you ruin one, you won't cry. I use these for everything from baking, to roasting vegetables, to catching drippings off meats. The large size is especially great for all the sheet pan dinner recipes that have become popular. The larger size ensures that the food won't be overcrowded.One note is that putting these in the dishwasher will alter the color/finish of the pan, although it won't affect it's use. A couple of mine have been run through the dishwashers by others in my house. They aren't as pretty, but still work fine. These sheets are easy enough to clean that I think that it is far easier to clean them by hand. Best cookie sheet ever! November 19, 2016 This is an update of my original review (if I left one). I have had these half sheet pans for about 10 months. I have bought so many high priced "commercial grade" cookie sheets in the past that I hesitated to buy these. HOWEVER...

They clean up like a dream and the NEVER do the "spring" thing in the oven. I can't give 10 stars, so I'll give 5. The only pan I buy now January 1, 2016 Love these pans. I cook and bake daily, making almost all of our food from scratch. And I bake thousands of cookies and lots of brownies and sheet cakes. I used to buy new cookie sheets / baking pans every single year because they would just wear out. And I hated that pop they would make in the oven as they warped from the heat every single time. Not these pans. These pans are gorgeous. Nothing sticks to them but I still use parchment or foil or silicone to keep them beautiful. They are heavy duty, bake and cook evenly, no warping or popping. Keep in mind though, they will get that caked on brown stuff if you use cooking spray and cook on them directly. That's from the spray being baked on over time. That happens with any pan. These pans are so good I still use the baked on pans. I just use those ones when I need a sprayed pan for a meal and I use my beautiful shiny ones with silpats for cookies and such. I will never buy another brand of pan again. Ever. Jelly roll is the size to buy! December 14, 2015 I love the jelly roll size. Two of these fit perfectly in the oven on the rack. They are much easier to clean than one huge pan, plus easier to store inside cabinets. It is very well-made with measurements exactly as described. These are by far the most frequently used item in my kitchen. Quality September 28, 2015 I just bought these from costco at a better deal but they are definitely quality! I did a comparison with my old sheets... Side by side in the oven and used storebought cookie dough (kind that comes in little portioned squares). The cookies on my old sheet started burning on the bottom so I took them out a few minutes earlier than the nordicware. The nordicware cooked the cookie perfectly. they came out rounder and did not start burning on the bottom like the ones on my old sheet. | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Four Star Reviews: | 7% These are wonderful sheets and work very well October 27, 2017 I am an avid macaron baker. These are wonderful sheets and work very well. My only complaint was a small imperfection on one of the sheets that caused one of the shells to stick. Macaron template for consistency July 20, 2017 Will help with piping consistency. Silicone means I don't have to line the pans with paper. Not sure how they will turn out when baked on silicone, as I haven't tried them yet. pretty darn good May 26, 2017 These are great for cooking 375 F or lower otherwise my mats gave off weird fumes at higher temps! I do like to use these for rolling out dough on and making candy on as its nonstick quality make the job easier! | 10% Pretty good pans July 1, 2017 These pans are pretty good. I bake a LOT of cookies and use them often. I haven't found a use for the lids though. I thought I would use them for storing cookies before I decorate them, but I find it better to bag the cookies and store in Rubbermaid containers so they stay fresher. One strange thing I noticed is that they creak when I take them out of the oven and allow them to cool. I've never experienced that with other pans. and fat head crust) and sausage & cheese stuffed jalapenos and sweet peppers. I have not had any problems with ... June 28, 2017 I actually bought this pan, because I bought the Vremi 3 Piece Silicone Baking Mat Set and wanted a new pan that the largest mat would perfectly fit into. I've used it several times already (with the mat) to make keto pizza (chicken crust, cauliflower crust, and fat head crust) and sausage & cheese stuffed jalapenos and sweet peppers. I have not had any problems with it. It's the perfect size for my oven and cooking needs and it cleans up easily and still looks brand new. I'm considering buying other sizes of this brand, if available. unexpectedly disappointed...just fyi December 16, 2016 sigh...not the dimensions listed in product description; can only conclude that these pans have been changed to improve profit margin (similat to canned goods that no longer are full size by ounzes, but priced the same or higher). These pans are nearly an inch less wide in width and length than described..they are 11.35 x 8 inches as described on attached label and 1 inch deep. Had hoped for the bit larger size, as I have a spacious counter oven, but won't quite fit a half sheet. Will make do. Of course they are lovely pans, they are NordicWare. I really have no complaints for the jelly roll pan ... March 9, 2016 I really have no complaints for the jelly roll pan. It has never buckled. My only real complaint is the marks left behind by the sticky stuff used to affix the label. It leaves a dark mark that cannot be washed or scoured off. Oh, and for those who have never cooked or baked with aluminum from "back in the day", aluminum will scratch when used and it may get "chalky" if run through the dishwasher. That is just the nature of the metal. Cleaning in between prep and baking was easy. The pan is lightweight but very sturdy December 2, 2015 I bought two of these. The first was so that we would have two half sheet pans and another after getting the first and realizing what we had prior was not half sheet. I did not use it to bake cookies, but fried chicken. Wife has celiac disease so I decided to fry up some chicken because she had been craving it. Used the pan and a wire rack in the prep. Worked out well.Used them again to finish cooking the chicken in the oven after frying them. Cleaning in between prep and baking was easy. The pan is lightweight but very sturdy. I'm very pleased to have a fine product manufactured here in the USA. Wife should be baking cookies using these soon! Great value! November 28, 2015 Fantastic baking sheet that conducts heat (and cold if left in the refrigerator) amazingly well. I bought the half-sheet and quarter-sheet. Be aware that these items' finish will scratch fairly easily. I accidentally used a heavy-duty Scotch-Brite pad on the quarter-sheet, and the finish is now heavily scratched. However, this does not affect its use - only its look. So, I still highly recommend this product.I do not wash this item in the dishwasher. The product information that you receive with the item says that while you can wash them in the dishwasher, it will cause discoloration but will not affect it's cooking ability. So, if you want a dishwasher safe baking pan that will look brand new after several washings, do not buy this product. | 10% and fat head crust) and sausage & cheese stuffed jalapenos and sweet peppers.

I'm considering buying other sizes of this brand, if available. Heavy duty half sheet May 26, 2017 I've used the half sheet pan a few times a month for almost a year now, and it still looks good as new. I always line it with parchment or foil before I bake, and maybe that's why it's held up so well. But the pan is very heavy duty, and there's no doubt about that. It's lasted longer than any other pan I've bought in the past. I've used it for cookies, roasted vegetables, bread, even a whole chicken! Everything always browns evenly, and come out the way they should. One star is deducted because when I first got this in the mail, it was heavily dented as I had ordered a heavy cast iron skillet as well. Amazon's poor packaging resulted in a circular indentation in my half sheet from the bottom of the heavy skillet. I wish I had complained about this to Amazon since the dent is very unsightly, but it doesn't seem to affect the heat distribution of my baking. So, other than this minor defect, I'm a happy customer. unexpectedly disappointed...just fyi December 16, 2016 sigh...not the dimensions listed in product description; can only conclude that these pans have been changed to improve profit margin (similat to canned goods that no longer are full size by ounzes, but priced the same or higher).

Significant sticking of food to mat. Have to scrub ... July 27, 2016 Significant sticking of food to mat. Have to scrub it and/or soak it to get it clean which isn't any different than using a regular pan without the mat. Before I purchased these I read how some reviewers had ... July 15, 2016 Before I purchased these I read how some reviewers had mats that smelled weird, burned, or were poorly made. I too, bought defective ones. They work, but I'm afraid to use them with the smell they give off and border smearing. Too worried it's getting on/into the food I bake on it. I'd rather use parchment paper. Oil seeps through these ... July 14, 2016 I'd rather use parchment paper. Oil seeps through these mats which means you have to wash the baking tray as well as the mat. And washing the mat just doesn't seem to get the oil out. I had to put it in the dishwasher. Parchment might be more expensive, but it's easier. | 4% Caution recommended October 12, 2017 IF I'm using a silpat mat or a rack for roasting - this sheet pan is fine. IF however, I want to bake directly in this pan - for brownies or a sheet cake, then there are the dings - one of them pretty significant - that need to be considered. And so I always resort to my old sheet pan instead of this 'new' replacement. This is the sort of thing I should have kept in mind before ordering. Sometimes items ordered are pristine & work wonderfully from the get go.. and sometimes you get something FAR from it. This sheet pan is one of those 'far from it' items. I won't buy another sheet pan online, but will shop in a store for a replacement - probably from another brand since I don't know who allowed for a dinged up pan to be sent out in the first place. Disappointed. The logo is unnecessary and just annoys me! August 11, 2017 I love sheet pans similar this and have owned many in my lifetime. Everyone else I know must love them too, as my supply of five sheet pans had dwindled down to two. I needed more - so I ordered these since they were so well reviewed. When they got here I was really disappointed in two things: specifically they feel a little lighter weight than the ones I've owned in the past, and they have a sizable raised logo that stretches across about a third of the bottom of pan – which is exactly what I don't want – I don't want one more place for gunk to get stuck. Not Good! June 22, 2017 This would have got 5 stars if not for the dents and there are a few, before purchasing I read in reviews that others have received them dented as well but I figured I might get lucky, didn't happen! The dents are not from shipping so your guess is as good as mine. I would have returned it but for the price its not worth the hassle. This would be a nice product if not for dents but again... reviews indicate many have received this item dented. I would recommend to others looking at this item to look elsewhere, preferably locally where you can actually see the item. Fits Breville Toaster Oven, Nice quality pan, Metal darkens when washed in dishwasher June 11, 2017 This fits my Breville Toaster Oven (Breville BOV800XL Smart Oven Breville BOV800XL Smart Oven 1800-Watt Convection Toaster Oven with Element IQ, Silver) just right and I like the heft of the pan -- it is the kind that won't warp. My problem is: when my husband accidentally put this into the dishwasher, the metal darkens and now have spots from Silpat that I use on top of it. I don't know if I should toss this away but I wouldn't bake anything without the silpat on it, so I figure my food won't touch the metal directly. For this, I deduct 2 points -- truly, it is very easy to toss everything in the dishwasher and I'm sure we are not the first/last person to have done so. Thin Material November 16, 2016 I am disappointed by how thin this pan is. It's only 20-gauge. While the pan has wire embedded in the rim to prevent or reduce warping, the thin gauge is not so good for even heat distribution. My other sheet pans vary from 12-gauge to 14-gauge.

Easily stained and scratched February 21, 2017 Very easy to stain and scratch. These are good trays and they don't seem to warp in the heat, but you have to be very careful to not scratch or stain them. The first time I used one I got a bit of sugary syrup on it in the oven and it burned right onto the pan, it seemed like it was going to be easy to get off but it just didn't come off and the spot remained sticky. Plus while cleaning it (just using sponges) I scratched the tray as well.

June 19, 2016 Unimpressed. Mine stained even from hand washing. Doesn't say made in the USA. Guessing made in the USA with foreign metal? Who knows. I still really like these but they don't really stand out to me as top quality. Does the job. I'm not a big cooking enthusiast do not a big deal, was expecting a bit more. Perhaps my expectations were unrealistic? NOT Dishwasher Safe March 2, 2016 The pans are nice, decently heavy, and work well in the oven. Unfortunately, I listened to other reviewers who claimed they put the pans in the dishwasher "many times" and had no fading or tarnishing. Have been handwashing them up to this point, but yesterday put the small one in the dishwasher. It is now stripped of the shiny silver coating and is tarnished to a dull grey. Terrible looking and likely unsafe to cook on, so it will need to be thrown away. DO NOT be tempted to put these pans in the dishwasher! | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Two Star Reviews: | 1% One was defective. Other fine. October 28, 2017 One of my mats arrived wrinkled and you can see that the internal fibers are misaligned. It won't lay flat and I am afraid to use it because of potential uneven dispersal of heat. Some of the fibers are sticking out of the silicone. Poor quality assurance.The other mat in the package was fine. Do not last. October 6, 2017 They don't last long as all...after a handful of uses they don't clean well and just as well to go back to foil. Surprisingly disappointed September 2, 2017 When I used it for my macarons, they stuck to the sheets. I was incredibly surprised at the outcome since I was so excited about my first silpat purchase. I used again on cookies with the same outcome. Maybe I just got a bad batch? :( Needs better packaging July 3, 2017 I like the product but hate how the baking sheet was bent so one side of my macaroons are lopsided. The sheets should be packaged more carefully to ensure a crease doesn't form! Quite annoyed. Everything sticks. May 29, 2017 Arrived with one mat warped in the middle, so a whole row of cookies are always misshapen because of a big crease down the middle. Cookies ALWAYS stick to the mat. I do not have any trouble with macarons sticking to any of my other silicone mats, only these. Purchased for the templates on the mat, but are useless.Updated review: The seller did contact me and refund me for the mat that arrived with a big crease, so I added another star for good customer service, but this review is for the product, not the seller. There was a suggestion to change my recipe but I'm sorry, the fact remains that my recipe has worked without problems on two other different sets of silicone baking mats and it is only these that it sticks to, so for me, I do not like them.Reading through comments, I am far from the only person who received damaged or defective mats (several with the same crease as me, others with damage to the silicone material). These were much cheaper than other silicone baking mats out there, which made them appealing with all the great reviews, but I have owned more expensive mats for several years now that work perfectly today as they did right out of the box. I'll stick with those and use parchment paper for a template. | 3% Spotted and ruined after one wash! October 11, 2017 Was looking forward to these pans since they fit perfectly side-by-side in my oven and they have great reviews. But after one dishwashing, they completely lost their lustre & smoothness. Not sure if the protective film came off or what but not the quality I expected when so many customers raved about them.As another reviewer put it "There were map-like spots" after the first wash and they never look shiny again. See pics to see what this means exactly.I still use them even though they look embarrassingly gross, but only because I use them with a cooling rack too, (Stainless Steel Cooling Rack - 10 Inches X 15 Inches Heavy Duty, Commercial, Metal Wire Grid Rack) so my food doesn't actually touch the nasty pans. Started corroding after the first use July 2, 2017 The first thing I cooked on this surface was a batch of 6 tortilla flats with pesto and ham toppings. Upon removing the cooked food, I noticed that the aluminum beneath had turned a rusty brown. I hand-washed it and was able to remove the stains, but they just continued to accumulate from other foods. Now, if I scrub off the brown stains, my wash pad is covered in black residue. The surface of the pan also "springs" when lifted. Considering the fact that I bought these to replace rusty steel sheets on which I could not cook without aluminum foil, this is absolutely wasted money.Never use these without a sheet liner. Not even once. So disappointed! I had high hopes for this pan but ... June 6, 2017 So disappointed! I had high hopes for this pan but it came dented!! Not happy at all - it wasn't the packaging - it was packaged great - has awesome reviews but........... One of them had small dents in it so I didn't feel like I could gift it May 25, 2017 I ordered these for a gift initially. One of them had small dents in it so I didn't feel like I could gift it. Amazon replaced them and I kept them for myself as the event passed for the gift. When I washed them, one of the sheets appears as though the finish has come off in places. It is a darker gray and not shiny at all like the rest of the cookie sheet and the other one. I am afraid to use it now because I don't know what is underneath the finish. I would replace these, but cannot find a link to do so since these are already replacements. Very disappointed in this product and glad I didn't give it as a gift. Loved it until it warped just over a month of use January 16, 2017 Let me start with saying I loved this pan at first. It was the perfect thickness and baked my cookies evenly. My purchase date was December 8th, 2015. Now, just over a month after ordering my pan SEVERELY warped. I was baking pizza in the oven and placed the pan on hot pads. It immediately warped. It was a pretty expensive pan, so I am disappointed. Overall, it has received excellent reviews, so I am kind of shocked it warped on me. Just a little disappointed. like me, you ordered this based on America's Test ... December 23, 2016 If, like me, you ordered this based on America's Test Kitchen recommendation and link, you will be disappointed. This pan is not the one they reviewed which fit their best rated rack. I ordered both intending to give as presents, but the dimensions of this pan are not as large as the previous half sheet pan, so the rack doesn't fit inside the pan. I attempted to order this directly and via the America's test kitchen site, but the pan that arrived was the 'natural' version rather than the original half bakers sheet. | 3% Started corroding after the first use July 2, 2017 The first thing I cooked on this surface was a batch of 6 tortilla flats with pesto and ham toppings.

Not even once. Water gets trapped in the edges! February 16, 2017 I hand wash these in my sink, and water gets trapped inside the folded edges. You can shake it, and it doesn't come out. Nordic Ware also recently changed their company stamp on the sheet pan to a deeper stamp than they previously used. This makes it difficult to remove cooked on oils and fats in these grooves.

I am really Surprised at how flimsy and thin cover is. Won't be ordering again... July 5, 2016 For Nordic Ware I am really surprised on the quality of the lid for the Baker shEat. The aluminum sheet seems like any aluminum Bakers sheet I've bought from other manufacturers, so there is no difference there. However if you plan on using the cover, which I certainly do, I doubt that won't last more than a few uses! The cover is not even a snug fit on the Baker sheet. When I purchased these at a local restaurant supply store, the cover is certainly a lot more snug, fits the pan a lot better, and will certainly hold up a lot longer than this flimsy cheaply made cover, sorry to say... What used to be for Nordic Ware no longer is.. Shame to say This one I will keep as it is in great need at the moment April 28, 2016 This is the second quarter sheet from Nordic Ware that I have ordered. First one was full of dings and dents so was returned. I've just opened the replacement and it too has a dinged corner. This one I will keep as it is in great need at the moment. No more orders tho of this pan or supplier. I'll go to BB&B and see it in person. Quality control on this pan is awful! | 0% There are no reviews yet |

One Star Reviews: | 1% No I did not like it - it began to smoke when I used ... September 6, 2017 No I did not like it - it began to smoke when I used the mat not sure but I would not recommend to anyone ... this Macaron baking mat because this product has a great review. I just received it and already damaged ... May 11, 2017 I bought this Macaron baking mat because this product has a great review. I just received it and already damaged and sheets are very thin compare to other mat I already have. I am returning it and don't buy from this vendor. Really bad. April 30, 2017 I have some of these by an alternate manufacturer & they are wonderful. I "thought" silicone mats would pretty much all be the same, but they aren't. These are awful. Merely roasting veggies today left them stained. My others don't get stained, I didn't know it was possible. Secondly, these are always slimy. Tried straight undiluted Dawn, tried running them through several cycles of the dishwasher (Cascade + Dawn) - nothing works to un-slime them. They're pretty gross. I'm worried now if they're imparting something onto the food cooked on them. Leaves a funny taste February 17, 2017 I love the idea of these mats. They do work wonderfully well. Food doesn't stick at all to them. Only thing is, my food now has a funny after taste to them. I even did a test: Baked a dozen cookies on the sheet with the silicone mat and another dozen without the mat. Also did it with french fries and sweet potato fries. Everything that was cooked with these mats did in fact have the funny after taste. I even cooked items on both sides of the mats to see if it would make a differerence...and nope. All had the aftertaste. We have all together stopped using them. Terrible for cookies March 12, 2016 Don't buy these. I use these mats for cookie baking only and I went back to using my old ones. These didn't bake consistently and my cookies spread on these. I also bought a set as a gift for someone and she had the same issue with her cookies spreading too. | 3% Gross October 12, 2017 A friend of mine ordered one of these and I borrowed it and loved it so I decided to purchase one, however it came with some nasty stuff on the bottom I can't wash or scrub off without scratching the pan and it was completely covered in this gross dark black dirt that was really hard to wash off. This product is a total disappointment September 23, 2017 I don't understand why this product is so highly reviewed. I ordered it based on those recommendations, however, the product is a total disappointment - not nearly as well made as the reviewers and product maker suggest. Have used it 3 or 4 times and the bottom of the pan is completely scratched up. All I have done to it is wash it, take it in and out of the oven, and store it alone on a shelf. These scratches must be from taking it in and out of then oven, a normal process which all my other bakeware seems to survive unscathed.Furthermore, the pan it self isn't solid. That is to say, the bottom pops back and forth depending on which side you touch, like the pop up button on a bottled drink that let's you know if it's been tampered with. It has yet to bow in the oven but I'm sure that will come soon enough as I have only been using it at 375. I wish I could return it but it is out of date as I only bake once a month or so. I will be sure to recycle it. You have been warned. Silver residue after washing -- no thanks November 30, 2016 Sent this back right away. After washing for the first time lots of silver material came off while drying it. After many washes and lots of dry wiping the silver residue persisted. Lost quality after first wash September 25, 2016 I bought these because of the high ratings. When i got the item it looked so promising. But, sad to say, after the first wash, it lost it lustre, smoothness and quality. There were map-like spots. Horrible Product! August 4, 2016 Horrible product! Used them each once and as soon as I tried to wash the sheets trays with a sponge it turned all nasty grey and tarnished looking as if the coating was coming off or something. They were too disgusting to cook on after that so I just threw them in the trash. Don't buy this product! looks dirty, and can't wash away May 10, 2016 after wash, stains left on it. looks dirty, and can't wash away. | 3% Not good quality AT ALL. disappointed November 9, 2017 I bought these June 25th, I used them once, put in dishwasher because they’re heavy duty aluminum and restaurant quality. It totally messed up the whole sheet pan and it came out like it was rusted. No warning about it on package or anything. I usually have good luck with Nordic Ware but can’t believe this heavy duty sheet pan can’t withstand a home dishwasher. REALLY DISAPPOINTED August 7, 2017 I bought Nordic Ware because I thought it was superior product. When I received it, it was full of all kinds of awful dents. Seriously? Next time I'll know better. Damaged July 26, 2017 Opened the set up to find the one on bottom dented. The top one also had stains all along the backside. Hard to clean June 17, 2017 This pan is really hard to clean and stains easily. The first time I washed it there was water spots all over it that would not come out. My food sticks really easily even after I've oiled it the food does not cook evenly on the pan. I have to soak the pan for a long time to get anything off of it. I will be returning. looks dirty, and can't wash away May 10, 2016 after wash, stains left on it. looks dirty, and can't wash away. Damaged and Silpat doesn't fit March 26, 2016 arrived with gouges in the backside, bumps on the inner surface. Does not look like this occurred during shipment, but was there before packaging.Also 9x12 Silpat does not fit inside. | 0% There are no reviews yet |
