Calphalon Classic Bakeware 9-Inch Round Nonstick Springform Pan

It works great! The latch tarnished a little after cooking but other than that it works great.

I'm really happy with this pan, I've made several cheese cakes with it now and haven't had a problem. The latch has a very solid feel when opening or closing. Cleaning has been extremely easy so far, a quick soak in warm water and everything wipes right off.

Last Christmas, I had some last minute baking to do and purchased this pan along with Nordicware's 3-pc. Springform Pan Set (seemed like a good deal for 3 stackable pans). I used the calphalon 9" and also Nordicware's 9" to make a layer cake. Both pans worked well, but I preferred calphalon because of the weight. It seemed so solid and had a good feel to it. I've used it for cheesecakes and also a regular white cake for coconut cake - turned out beautifully without sticking.

I was going to return the nordicware, but decided to could use the smaller pans for small cakes/cheesecakes.

USEFUL TIP:
To avoid rusting on any metallic cookware, I wash them by hand and pop them in a warm oven (200 degrees or so). This eliminates any possibility of rust forming in hard-to-reach corners. Do the same for cookie cutters, etc.
