Yes the sides are straight and the corners square. Very good for layer cakes. I have several sizes and love these pans.

Yes, perfect for nice square & sharp sheet cakes. Use mine all the time & love it!!!

The bottom corners are mostly square. The reason they are not absolutely square is because it would create a problem with release of the cake as well as cleaning. You will notice that most bread pans have some taper to their sides which reduces frction when releasing the bread. Absolutely square corners would increase the friction on the corners of the cake causing them to tear. This pan is non-stick but not quite like like teflon. If you put some release agent on it (crisco and flour mixture) they release nicely. DO NOT USE METAL UTENSILS ON ANODIZED COOKWARE. We use cloths or pan protectors to prevent damage to the anodization. Nice pans but have increased substantially in price over the last year. The bottom corners are mostly square.

Yes, the sides are straight and it does have square corners which was one of the reasons I originally chose it. It is a very nice pan for making large cakes.

The sides are straight but rounded where the side meets the bottom. The corners are rounded. That is there is no straight, sharp corner (like a box)

The sides are straight with square corners and no seams! So easy to clean! A seamless flange around the top edges makes it easy to lift when full and carry. There are NO seams! Love it! Great quality!

Yes and Yes. The bottom corners of the pan do look a bit rounded, but i assure you that you'll have a straight-sided cake with good corners! Don't forget to line the entire bottom with parchment. Most of the reviews say this pan is non-stick, but it absolutely not.

The board I purchased has straight corners. But it is a year old. Love it, but they might have changed. Best to call them with your question. I use mine as a countertop on two base cabinets. Sits flush against the wall.

I'd call it an oval, but maybe a long oval? It doesn't have sharp square corners. Rounded corners.

The pans are of the same size but the sides are not straight, it's at an angle. You need to trim the sides if you plan to make a layer cake.

Yes, the sides seem to be perfectly straight, and the top edge has a small rolled lip which is maybe about 1/4 inch. The pan is sturdy and doesn't have any "give" or bend to it. After you invert the baked cake layer, the top edges are "sort of" rounded, as compared to some cheaper pans which are usually squared off, so it doesn't seem to crumble quite as much when I put on the frosting. I love these.

I've had great success with this pan, no dome. And I love the square corners. I have this pan in 2 sizes and it's great.

The corners are rounded and sides are tapered. In comparison, I also have a pair of Wilton square cake pans and they have true squared corners and straight sides.

No...All corners are rounded. Almost like a regular mattress is. I have memory foam mattresses for our bed and my son's bed and they all have rounded corners too. Hope this helps! I've never seen a mattress with squared off corners. :-) Except foam pads and this is definitely not a foam pad. Very very very nice...we are in love with it!!

I didn't buy the round pan, but the 8 inch square one seems straight to me.

I can only say it is square. Our old double sink had rounded corners ,so I had to square off corners. Easy to do with laminate, not so easy with granite

The corners are square (not rounded) but I wouldn't call them sharp. My two year old plays with his kitchen daily and we have never had any problems.

Unfortunately the corners are sharp. This is a kitchen for an older kid. Mine just turned 5 and we bought it for him last Christmas and before that he had two other kitchens that were plastic with all rounded edges. Hope that helps.

Yes the bottom is flat with curved sides. My husband loves this pan because he is a amateur chef and he is strong enough to flip contents over an open fire with this pan as well.

No, the container is not square. One way is ok, the other comes in just barely below 6 inches. Also, the sides are not vertical, so the bottom is about 5 3/4" x 5 7/8".

The edge on both sides is slightly rounded. Edges are not squared off. The flat part is about 5/16 th thick. Very narrow.

Sides are straight but bottom is curved.. Not as deep as a wok, but would definitely work better on a gas range rather than ceramic cooktop (which I have). With that said, I love it.

Speaking only of the six inch pans, the sides are straight. Would have preferred sloped sides since the three pans I bought do not stack and take up a lot of storage space.
