The Chicago Metallic Duncan Hines 2-Piece Toaster Oven Pan with Rack is a very good quality item. It's made of heavy gauge steel with a non-stick coating. Many pans of this type have a chrome wire rack that discolors over time and is difficult to clean. This rack appears to be made of the same non-stick coated steel as the pan. I haven't used it yet, so I can't attest to the durability of the pan/rack or the coating. I line my T/O pans with foil anyhow, so the coating isn't much of an issue. The pan itself, however, is far heavier/stronger than the flimsy aluminum one that came with my toaster oven (which I summarily melted by accidentally setting it on a hot cooktop burner!).
I was disappointed to find that this pan is not quite as large as the 10.2 x 7.2 inches shown in Amazon's product description. I could easily use an 11 x 9 pan in my toaster oven, so I bought this one believing that it would be larger than others I had found. But, due to the lip around the edges, this pan actually measures only 9 x 6 inches. Two slices of toast, or maybe (in a pinch) four english muffin halves are all it will hold. I rationalize that limitation, though, by concluding that the convection feature (air flow) of my T/O is probably more effective when using a pan slightly smaller than the rack it sits on.
Overall, I think this is a great product.
Customer Review: great pan
First let me say that I looked all over for this pan and couldn't find it. And then one day I just decided to look on the internet. All I did was google in toaster oven rack and Amazon came up with the pan immediately. I was so pleased because I never thought I would find that pan. And it was only $9.99! I immediately ordered it and it came in two days! I was very pleased. I have ordered many things from Amazon and am always pleased with their prices, their service, and their products.
