Kaiser Noblesse Mini 6-Inch Springform Pan

Comment: Received this springform pan with a another Kaiser pan purchase. Just baked a small New York style cheesecake this evening and the pan was perfect. No leaks, non-stick, just perfect. All the other reviews are obviously from people who don't bake since they didn't actually try it before reviewing it.

Comment: I already had the Kaiser 9" springform pan which is nicely made and works well for cheesecakes, etc. This smaller 6" springform was a free gift with another purchase. The first thing I noticed was that it did not come boxed and none of the instructions were in English! It is a much lighter metal than the 9" pan so not sure how well it will work for baking. My intention was to use it for a small dessert for 2 people but I haven't tired it yet. There are just two of us at home now and we are trying to eat lighter and stay slim -- but this is a small pan and when you put effort into making something it is nice to have some leftover to eat another day or freeze!

Comment: Like Pinkitty, I got this pan as a bonus with the purchase of another Kaiser baking pan. What a joke! It's very thin metal, the label doesn't even say Kaiser, and it's only about 1 inch tall. Wal-Mart sells a comparable one - actually might be sturdier - for 1/6 the price. If it is a freebie, ok. But don't purchase it. It is a disgrace to the fine Kaiser name.

Comment: I received this as a "bonus" with the Avanti thermal carafe for free. It's cute, but there is no way I'd pay $25 to purchase this separately. It is simply too small for a serious baker and too expensive for a child's first springform. Will make nice individual baked goods.
