When you pay under $20 for a set of 3 springform pans you can not expect them to be the best pans out there. They are lightweight but for me they work great! I have had not problems with mine and I use them a lot. I needed an affordable set that would allow me to more easily get my cakes out of the pans once baked. These have never let me down.

I WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THIS ITEM AND ASKED AMAZON TO RETURN IT.I WANTED HEAVIER QUALITY PANS. THE SERVICE ON THE RETURN WAS EXTRAORDINARY. THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS THAT I LIKE TO DEAL WITH AMAZON. IT WAS TAKEN BACK AND CREDITED WITHOUT A BIT OF A PROBLEM. VIVA AMAZON FOR QUALITY AND SERVICE.
