Is this a little cushy like cake pans are? I'm cutting it up for wire bale jar gaskets and I need it to compress a bit.

Did you find a good product for gaskets? I am looking for the same, and it must be a food-safe material.

It compresses like a sponge. Just pushed it down and slid it under. Some sections were longer and you had to move more under the brackets, but definitely worth it!

I just got this machine as a gift. I thought the pan seemed to sit a little loose in the enclosure, so I tried adjusting the fit by bending the fittings on the sides of the pan up a bit. Then the fit was too tight. I bent them down just a little and now the fit seems about right. It doesn't take much pressure to bend the fittings, I did it using just my hands. It only takes a little bit of bending to make a big difference in the fit. So for people who are having trouble removing the pan, I'd suggest bending the fittings down just a little.

its not to heavy, extremely stiff, I wouldn't think it would compress compactly.

I have this AirBake Ultra pan, but I never baked a cake in it as of now. Just baked macaroni. It works fine for that, and then has the cover to go over for any left overs.

I think most coins are about the same thickness so I'll use coins as a gauge.It's a little thicker than a quarter... about the same thickness as a nickel.The pan feels very rigid. My pan has often been used on the stovetop with fairly high heat and it has not warped.

I bought this when it was $9, it came with a few dented spots, not a big deal for the price. I am feeling the handle & it feels rubbery, might be silicone which is oven safe, but not sure...I would ask Calphalon. Another note, grease still spatters & condensation forms on the underside, I am giving mine to my son to use as a pizza paddle.

I agree with Barbara. This is a lightweight pan, not designed for serious use. I've had this pan for less than 2 months and plan to purchase a replacement that is reliable.This one sure can't cut it.

It sounds like your pan warped in the middle like my old, less expensive one did. This is a much better quality than the others are. Weighs more and has a different interior surfacing. This one is FLAT and should stay that way, too.

There is a slight groove, it is shallow and smooth, but it is not raised in the middle. It is a very sturdy pizza pan, the stainless steel is very thick. I definitely recommend this pan.

I haven't used my pan yet. I read the instructions and it is good for electric or gas ovens only. I can tell it is made of good quality.

It is not a tight seal. It slides around similar to any other pan I have in the house. Nice looking pan. Bought it for my wife and she has not used it yet.

Not sure how you'd measure that, but it's definitely a thicker/heavier base than standard skillets that you'd find at the store for a similar price. I use this pan frequently to make dairy-based sauces and gravies, and they never stick or burn as they would with a thinner-based pan.

It is not terrible thick, about like a cardboard liner or silicone liners you can buy for cookie sheets. But it lays flat and cleans up easily. I cut it to fit the pan you place in the toaster oven

The pans just have AIRBAKE on them, but from what I remember they were Tfal. I must confess I haven't used them yet as I am saving them for Hot Cross Bun season-the only thing I will use them for, as they don't over brown the bottoms. .at least my old ones didin't. Guess I should check them out!! Hope this helps.

Jamie, mine measure that same as S. Sparke commented. I would not order them as the quality is not nearly as good as the brand I had before. The "arm" does not sit fully down on the cake pan bottom, so the cake does not release without taking off a bottom layer of the cake. The arm being raised also makes them a hassle to clean. Hope this helps with your purchasing decision. Deanna P.
