Opinion Please: Best Springform Pans?

Jan 30, 2007 4 Replies

Hi:



I'm new to the forum with a question. Who makes the best springform pans for cheesecakes and similar? I use one about once a month. I bought a set at Bed Bath Beyond a few months ago. They were cheap, like $12 for a set of three. I would have gladly paid more for ones that were more durable. These were made in Taiwan and I was skeptical, but figured for $12, I'd give it a shot. Well, within a couple months of light use and no abuse, the teflon coating is peeling off. Don't know about you, but I'm not to keen on eating teflon with my cheesecake.



So, any opinions based on experience would be welcome. I'm thinking of probably going with ones that aren't teflon coated. Not sure that the teflon is all that important. I don't necessarily need the ultimate pan, but am definitely willing to pay more for one that is durable and will last for years. Also, any recommendation of where to get them at a good deal.



TIA



You are right about the teflon- totally unnecessary

I don't believe that BB&B is an expert in quality kitchen supplies & equipment.

I agree with you about BB&B, I probably would recommend a local restaurant supply store before recommending Williams-Sonoma. WS is a great place for eye-candy, but their prices are uniformly ridiculous and they seem to value form over function.-j

I bought that same set, same problem, after 2 uses. I replaced it with a similar set of Onidea from Wal-Mart similarlly priced and they're working well.

I also own two 9"x9" squares from Wilton that are great and a 9"x13" from Kaiser that has proven to be good, so I would imagine the rounds from the same companies would be good as well.
