Very Well Made
Bought the 8x3 inch pan. I have half a dozen spring form pans. The Fat Daddio is the bomb. Heavy duty and very well made. Puts the others to shame. I’ve churned out 3 cheese cakes already and no issues. Some folks say it leaks. If so, they either placed the ring on upside down (it’s marked Top and Bottom) or they used too thin a batter. Spring form pans are not “water” tight. I really like the pan lip for moving/picking up the FD. It’s now a single hand operation. Another nice thing is you can tear a sheet of parchment paper off the roll, lay it down on the pan and place the ring right over it and it seals just fine. My other pans, I had to cut a round of parchment or it would tear when clamping the ring. If I had to list a con…it would be that the rivets heads on the inside of the ring (that attach the spring clip) are not flush and leave two dimples on the side of the cheese cake. I had to stretch for that con. Last, and nothing to do with the pan, it was shipped in a non-padded paper envelope. I expected damage to the pan when I opened the envelope but happily had none. Whomever is shipping these should rethink the packaging to avoid disappointed customers. If the rest of Fat Daddio’s products are made to the same heavy duty quality…I’ll be buying more in short order.

Perfect springform pan!
Great pan. Worked nicely for my cheesecakes. Only thing I couldn’t figure out was the caution on the tag to be sure and line up the arrows. They’re already lined up! Anyway, I had no leaks, and I really like this pan. Definitely recommend.

Wow! Nice!
It looks great. I saw a review that said it was hard to tell the top edge from the bottom, and the one I got had "Top" and "Bottom etched into the side with arrows. I have to assume the company has taken reviews to heart and made that change. It really looks nice. I have other springform pans, but I really appreciate how the base where your dish sits is raised. I still need to use it, but looking forward to it. It's just looks so professional and well made.

BEST SPRINGFORM BUT BE CREATIVE FOR CHEESECAKE BAIN-MARIE
A wonderful springform for Cheesecake but worst leaking of any. Just try putting it into a pan of water and see the water pour into the mold. So, following online suggestions for a bain-marie, I wrapped the pan in aluminum foil but it was not tight enough and some water came through. Finally, I settled on overkill: first putting the cake pan into a turkey bag and then covering the bag with a really tight aluminum foil wrap. It worked perfectly!
