Very nice, even baking. Great product.
Wife was surprised and pleased with this gift. She’s been exploring how to use sourdough bread dough for something other than a traditional round loaf. And sourdough does make a very nice baguette. These pans make a short baguette - not the long, long loaf you’ll see at a French bakery. Also, the bottom of the loaf will have little dots from the holes in the pan - but those holes allow for more even heat and moisture transfer, and the little dots look fine. Inexpensive for the quality you’re getting with these pans.

Perfect Size for my Ninja Oven
I make fresh baguettes regularly. This pan is the perfect size for my Ninja oven and I had to look at a LOT of pans to find the right size in metal. I like silicone, but not for my baguettes. Very happy with the product.

Crisp baguettes - althought I pushed past the recommended max of 428 fahrenheit
Yes, my baguettes are ugly, but this was my first time, so cut me some slack.I have to admit that I threw the cardboard away and only now when I'm coming to do the review do I realize the recommended upper temperature limit is listed as 428 degrees Fahrenheit. I found a recipe for baguettes that took me step by step through the process and had good reviews. That recipe called for pre-heating the oven to 500, then dropping it to 480 when the baguettes first go in, then dropping it to 450 half-way through when rotating the pan. On the plus side, I didn't experience any warping of the pan at this temperature.The baguettes were nicely baked through with a good crust on the outside. The air holes help to get a more even crust, but getting that even crust is also part of the timing. I made 2 batches and the batch that I baked for less time did not have that same level of crust on the bottom.As other reviewers have noted, these are not full size baguette pans, so when rolling out your dough before its final rise, it's good to keep this pan handy to measure against.The baguettes came right out of the pan after baking and the pan was easy to clean.I would say it's a worthwhile purchase (for small batches).

Incredible Pan From A Well Establish Company.
To be honest, I have several pieces of bakeware from Chefmade, and have found them all to be fantastic. I was absolutely happy to review a piece of what looks to be be a new line of their carbon steel bakeware from them.I have never been able to justify purchasing a baguette pan, as they are rather pricey for that they are, but this pan showed me the error of my ways. This pan is awesome - no other description is possible. It is sturdily made, smooth surface, and has an awesome non-stick finish. It is everything in a baguette pan that I never knew I really wanted.I used an old family recipe for baguette bread dough for this trial. It involved a 24 hour Poolish yeast fermentation, with an additional 4-6 hours of proofing. I have baked a baguette loaf with this recipe previously, but it was never ideal, as I just used a parchment paper coated baking pan. This awesome baguette pan makes all the difference. The perforations in the pan allow just the right amount of steam and heat to penetrate the loaf, creating a perfect baguette. I truly did not know what I was missing. The rounded ends of the pan's individual loafs makes each loaf you make perfect. As an FYI, yes I used 2 small additional pans in the oven, with a small amount of boiling water, to create the steam necessary for a perfect baguette load.My family has recognized that this pan has helped elevate the baguette that I have make. As a frequent traveler to Paris, I recognize baguette as an ideal bread form, and am happy to make a close version of the original. Thank you Chefmade for making this possible.

Makes terrific, crusty on all sides, bread!
I know, I know, my little bread roll looks wonky. I cheated and bought canned French bread dough to first try out the pan. I put my oven on preheat and uncanned the dough on a silicone mat. I cut the dough in half and rolled each section into a cylinder, not perfect, as you can see from the pic, almost the length of the pan. I lightly Pammed the trays and plopped the rolls in and put the pan in the oven. After baking about 30 minutes, I removed my bread from the oven. It was crusty and crispy all around the rolls. They had baked up nicely golden on the outside and soft and airy on the inside with a bit of chew. It may have been canned dough, but it was really good. I think I will bake it about 5 minutes longer next time for a darker crust. This pan would be great to make all kind of bread rolls like hoagie rolls, stuffed bread rolls, it's not just for baguettes. Clean up was almost non existent. I really like this pan.

Bread doesn't stick to it, and it can go in the dishwasher.
I was sure that when I used this the first time the bread dough would simply stick to it, or that after proving, it would ooze into the holes and so the loaf would be stuck when I pulled it out of the oven, but that did NOT happen. Instead, the bread rose beautifully and after it was baked, I was able to simply grab the bread (after it cooled) and take it right out of the pan. There was no sticking at all. I probably could have just rinsed it off and it would have been clean, but I like to run things through the dishwasher. This held up beautifully in the dishwasher as well.Works great, easy to clean, makes great bread! I'm very pleased with this pan!
