Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid 12-Cup Muffin Pan with Wire Sled, RedCustomer Review: Might want to stick with metal Summary: 2 Stars
The sled that comes with this muffin pan does solve the problem of the flexibility of silicone pans nicely--without it, you have to use a cookie sheet--something has to keep the flexible pan from spilling its contents as you try to get it into the oven.
I think perhaps that silicone bakeware is a technology that has promise but needs improvement. The pan is not really very non-stick. It must be sprayed with quite a lot of nonstick spray for easy release; otherwise, the contents will be edible, but mangled. Perhaps it's my sample, but while cooking, the pan itself emits an odor of scorched plastic that I find unpleasant. Because of the sled, it takes up more storage space than I think a muffin pan warrants.
It's interesting as a novelty, but I really see no advantage over a good nonstick metal pan, and several disadvantages. I love the silicone baking sheets, but this material is not like that, and I think I will not be buying any more silicone pans. In fact, I think I'll toss this one.
