USA Pan 1145LF Bakeware Aluminized Steel 1.25 Lb Loaf Pan, Medium, Silver

I can't give this little pan and its parent company enough stars! Since purchasing it last year, my husband has made us a loaf each week of his killer Banana Nut Bread with dark chocolate and walnuts.I bought the 1-pound size and was a little surprised that the pan seemed just a tad smaller than my other loaf pans, and was sad at first - but it didn't matter at all. I have nothing but good things to say about this pan.The tea cup is in the photo for size comparison. This is a very hefty and heavy pan. It is extremely well-made.When my husband makes the banana bread he coats the pan with butter only - no flour, etc. The loaf literally falls out of the pan and in one year, there has never been any "stickage" or missing chunks of the loaf left in the pan.Washing up only requires hot soapy water and a paper towel or soft dishrag. Most times when he leaves the pan on the counter after baking, I have to ask him, "Is this pan clean or dirty?" I do pay attention to the corners and make sure there are no crumbs left there, as the corner seals are so tight.We have been so happy with this pan that I have purchased 3 additional pans from the same company - the 12-well muffin pan for our dessert-like bran muffins, the 8-inch cake pan for our peach cobblers and dark chocolate cakes, and the 9-inch pie pan for my pies. This company makes amazing pans!Before getting this first loaf pan, we hardly ever had Banana Nut Bread because it always came out burned on the outside and wet and gooey in the center and it was awful. My glass loaf pans just were not putting out a reliable dessert.But since having these USAPans, there is NEVER any guesswork or cleanup and it doesn't get any better than that! They are all worth every cent you pay for them.

I purchased 2 of these pans to make homemade cocktail Rye Bread for the holidays. Wanted to try them ahead of time with something other than the bread to see how much "stick" they would have. They are heavy duty and so well made. I made mini meatloafs in them and they slid out like butter from the pans! Placed them in the sink with a little water and not even any soap and all the sticky glaze simply melted away. They look like I had just taken them out of the packaging when I received them. This is bakeware that I will definitely pass down in the Family for generations of scrumptious recipes to be made. I just can't say enough good things about how happy I am with these pans! Buy these pans if you are looking for quality. I am NOT a paid influencer for this product, just a Mom & Grandmom who is delighted with this purchase. Definitely worth the money! Happy Baking!

This pan is amazing. I appreciate the lines in the pan to see how much of a yeast/rise is achieved. Cleans up really easy as well.

Best pan company out there. Works well, sturdy and never disappointing! I have other pans from same company and recommend them to other bakers.

This pan is amazing for making bread. Nothing ever sticks and it's so easy to clean! I bought 4 bread pans total. I also bought a muffin pan and 2 sheet pans and they are amazing as well. If you're looking for non stick easy to clean pans, these USA pans are a must.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have the accompanying baking sheets and tey have held up under years of aggressive baking. This loaf pan is of the same dureable quality. Would order again!Quality:Very solid and heavy, perfect for loaves of sourdough!

I've been using my pans for over 4 years and they will likely go many years more. They are extremely durable pans with a tough non-stick finish that releases like a dream. The finish is just like it was on day one.I really wanted to give these pans 5 stars as I'm a huge fan and have more than as complete set. But had to dock one star for the following reasons:1. The rectangular and square pans (including this one) have inside seams in the corners that trap build up. Make sure to clean them carefully from time to time.2. The edges are rolled with a metal rod to provide the edges added strength and rigidity. But that rod rusts. Do not ever soak these pans. Only hand wash and dry then immediately to prevent that rod from rusting. The rust doesn't get in the inside/touch my food and I clean it off whenever I see it forming. But I think this is definitely a material/manufacturing flaw of an otherwise fabulous product.Tip: Never put these in the dishwasher.

This has been a great bread pan. It is heavy and has worked great, we mainly use it for banana bread. We have had it for a few months and you can even tell that we have used it. It is perfect size for banana bread loafs.
