Yes, this pan DOES have holes in it!

This means if you make your own dough, it is not a good idea to try to roll it out and spread it right in the pan. You should roll the dough out to the right size to begin with, and then transfer it to the pan and lightly press on the edges to make it fill the whole pan. If you try to roll it out in the pan, the dough will likely squish through the holes and possibly even stick to your countertop. This isn't the end of the world, but it can be a little annoying.

Otherwise, this pan works great - crust comes out nice and crispy, without needing to add any oil.

As other reviewers have pointed out, you won't want to be using a metal pizza cutter on this pan, but again, not a big deal - just transfer to a cutting board, cut it up, and then slide it back onto the pizza pan.

I have two of these pans, and I get rave reviews on the crust whenever guests try my pizza.

Another note - this pan works great for toasting garlic-cheese bread. Because it has holes, the bottom of the bread gets nice and crispy too. I used to put the bread right on the oven rack, but then crumbs get all over the place.

I bought the Cuisinart pizza pan as well as other bakeware - round cake pans, tart pans, and square baking pans. All are fantastic - great nonstick finish that washes easily. Love these pans.

THis is the best pan that I have ever found. I got one by chance and I loved it so much I purchased another one. This Pizza Pan works better and cooks more evenly than any other baking dish I own.

If your looking for a pizza pan, I promise you will love this one!

I've been using a pizza stone for homemade pizza for years, and always struggle with the problem of the underside being undercooked. I've learned to cook the crust a bit before adding toppings, and during that time I flip the crust to allow the bottom to cook. This pan eliminates that problem altogether. No flipping necessary! I've used this pan three times now, and my family says it's the best pizza I've ever made! I paid $10, but it's a bargain at twice that. If you want to make pizza in a standard oven, a pan like this with an aerated bottom is the way to go! I really like the heft of the pan (solid and substantial without being too heavy) and the nonstick feature really works.

I am new to making homemade pizza but after discovering Trader Joe's ready made pizza dough, I am now making it several times a month. This pan is wonderful---cooks the crust up just right, easy to handle and makes a large size pizza. Get two!

This is a really great pizza pan. One review states you cannot immerse the pan, this is true. This is not a problem because nothing sticks. You can put it in the dishwasher, but a quick wipe and rinse and its clean. Also great for oven fries, chicken nuggets and other items you want oven crispy.

Perfect for smallish large pizzas. If you get a big pizza, forget it. This is a small pan. But it works GREAT for frozen pizzas.

I love the way this pizza pan works, and recommend it as long as you're willing to replace it every year or so. The nonstick surface works for a while, and then crud starts building up that's impossible to remove. Eventually it gets too gross to keep using. It comes with a silly "lifetime warranty" that requires you to ship it to New Jersey at your expense plus send $7.00 for return shipping, so buying a new one from Amazon ends up being less expensive. I wish it were just solid, uncoated aluminum so I could scrub the dickens out of it when it gets encrusted with melted sauce and cheese. But I do like the big holes that expose the crust and help make it ... well, crusty.

I ordered this pan when it was <$10, what a deal! I have used it three times with fresh dough from the supermarket. I was sick of my dough sticking to my wooden peel if I did not make the pizza in lighting speed. With this pan I can take my time, I like it because I can strech the dough some in my hands then lay it down on the pan and stretch it the rest of the way out and the dough will stick to the pan and stay all spread out nicely but once it is cooked and crisp it slides right off. Nice weight to the pan too. The box it came in was huge, they need to find a flatter one.

Excellent pan for your home made pizza! A great buy, and will last forever ;)

This pan is great, easy to clean and makes crispy pizza. The only drawback is that you can not use a regular pizza cutter because the pan is non-stick so I use a plastic cutter which is not as good.

This pizza pan is a good quality. However, hand washing is recommended. The instructions say "DO NOT SOAK OR IMMERSE". So if you want one you can throw in the dishwasher, this is not it. I don't mind handwashing if the pan is a good one. The only other thing I would change would be to get a slightly smaller version of this pan. This one is larger than my previous pan and I can't seem to fit 2 in my oven at a time.

I've only used this a few times for heating frozen pizzas so far, but it's been well worth the money to have yummy crispy crust instead of soggy, unevenly cooked pizza. This pan is great! Buying them for my family members as gifts.

I just love them! they make perfect pizzas! Just what I was looking for. I fully recommend this product.

Bought this for my son and it's heavy, easy to clean and makes a nice crust that is just right, never soggy. Best buy on Amazon!

I love Cuisinart products, and this pizza pan has a solid build, with a nice non-stick coating, as one might expect. Unfortunately, the holes are far too large. Stretching dough on the pan with your hands to fill out the surface area becomes extremely frustrating, because the pizza dough gets caught in the large holes and gets "stuck." It also is an unforgiving pan because once the dough is in place, it can sag into the holes, depending on its consistency. I went with an Airbake by Wearever aluminum pizza pan that had a larger diameter (15 3/4") and smaller holes, and this supported the dough far better, and the pizzas I made came out great - crispy crust and no sogginess on the bottom.

These are great pizza pans. The pizza that was made in them was the best pizza ever. I am sure the cook had a bit to do with that as well. I would love to see them offered in a bigger size.

Great Quality! Nice & heavy, no warping. I love this pan.

This is a substantial piece of metal! It turns out excellent crusts for your favorite pizza recipes. Look no further, this will be the last pizza pan you will purchase. Five stars and two enthusiastic thumbs up!

I'm semi-famous in my circle of friends for making fabulous homemade pizza. I make homemade pizza at least twice a month and these are definitely the best pans I've ever used, at any price. The crust is crisp, which is essential in my opinion, and they wash up very easily. They are very heavy weight and unlike other pans they don't warp! Bought 2 before and I'm back to buy 2 more!

This pan is made of heavy gauge metal and does not flex when picked up by one hand. The large perforations allow even baking of the crust and makes it crispy which is the way we like it. I also like the size as it makes enough pizza for us to have two meals from one pie. Clean up is a joy!

I add lots of cheese to my pizzas and it tends to get all over the pan. With other pans, the cheese sticks and I have to pry the pizza off with a spatula. BUT NOT THIS ONE!! It just slides right off with one shake. My party pizzas come out crisp and heated evenly. Also, I have cut my pizzas on this pan and there was barely a scratch on it. Very heavyweight with no warping. What a buy!

This is a very well built pizza pan. I was visiting my moms the other day and took this to make homemade pizza with, and when she picked it up, she said "Wow. This feels like it'd be expensive!" But I don't think it is expensive for the quality of this product. I might buy another for when I need to make 2 homemade pizzas at the same time.

I had no expectations when I bought this pan. It has turned out to be the best one I purchased! It's a great pizza baking pan. I follow the directions and am careful not to immerse it in water when I wash it. It has held up for 1 1/2 years and is doing great, still looks brand new.

I thought this heavy weight was a bargain at $10.99. At $7.99 (including free shipping), it's almost obscene. It's also ideal for reheating the 'delivered' pizza that arrives a little less than crispy. I think there will be some happy recipients on my Christmas holiday gift list! Another fine Cuisinart product.

This is, by far, the best add-it-to-my-cart-to-get-free-shipping purchase I've ever made. The pizzas come out perfect and there's absolutely no sticking.

I only use this pan to make pizza with fresh, hand-made dough. For those having problems with the holes in the pan, I recommend rolling the dough on the counter and once you've stretched it to the size of the pan, lay the dough on the pan. If you roll the dough directly on the pan, it will press through the holes.

I've had this for almost four years, making around one pizza a month and it still performs as-new.
