I bought these muffin pans because I really wanted something non stick but when I baked my muffins they stuck really bad and I lost both pans' worth.

These pans really work well. The standard size is smaller than I expected but they cook great. I have several other shapes and sizes and love them all. Very easy to clean and store.

I have the 12-muffin pan which I use all the time. But making muffins from scratch, I am sometimes too generous in adding nuts or fruit and have too much batter for 12... I just needed this additional space for when my creativity outgrows my 12-muffin pan... no overflows and no wasted batter!!

I bought these a couple of years ago, just before they started making them in that pretty red, so mine are black. They've held up well. I don't really like washing them, because they flop around when you're trying to wipe them, but it's achievable. Actually, the biggest cleaning hassle is any kind of spray-on oil (if you choose to have any additional insurance against sticking). The excess spray sits on the top of the pan and bakes on. My suggestion is that you just not use the spray: it's not generally necessary.

Floppy pans are not always convenient for moving around. You can just use two hands to move the filled pans, but I like to put two of these six-up pans on a regular wire cooling rack, and use the cooling rack like a tray. It won't interfere with airflow, it doesn't hurt the pans, and it doesn't cost me anything extra because I've already got a handful of wire racks.

The cups are just a little on the small side. I've given up on trying to cram the fluted paper cups into them. You don't need the paper, so just skip it. These pans make a very "human scale" muffin. If you've ever wondered what a reasonable serving size is, this muffin pan will help restore your perception to something less "super sized."

I really do like the silicone bakeware that is out now and Silicone Zone's is as good as they get. My two cons are that the muffin pan is flimsy once full of muffin batter so you definately have to use a cookie sheet underneath to get them in and out of the oven, and two it is smaller than I expected, but in the end I've come to prefer the smaller muffins (this is not a mini muffin pan)for those with bigger appetites, just take two!
