This perforated half pan is great for draining blanched veggies, pasta, even lettuces that you washed and need to drain. It is part of the super pan family so it is well made.

We bought both varieties of hotel pans for our steam table, and this one is about triple the price of what we paid for the cheaper kind. I have to say that it was worth the extra money for sure. The corners and edges have held up well, while the cheaper ones have curled corners and edges that no longer hold steam underneath as a result. Spend the extra dough. It's worth it!

I started shopping here because I was trying to find a great selection of the Vollrath Stainless hotel pans. They are the best on the market and the only ones I buy. The sturdy, shiny stainless, design is easy to clean, and last but not least Made In the USA! Most of our pans spend hours in the smoker but I like to keep them looking new and they are. While the smoke has to be scrubbed off by hand, they come clean with very little effort and stay shiny and they do not have a scratched-up look. Never warp. I use the racks and covers. There is not one point I could suggest for improvement. I really like that my purchase helps give another USA worker a job.

Amazing hotel pans!! I’ve been using these for years for everything from large scale prep to basic transport of our holiday meals to the in laws. Easy to clean, good quality as always from Vollrath, and whatever anti jam mechanism it has is wonderful as I can stack for storage and not spend time trying to separate the pans as I have had to do with other hotel pans in the past. Definitely a recommend!

Vollrath makes excellent quality products and this perf pan is no exception. It is truly anti-jam and great for steaming small quantities of starches or vegetables.

This pan is so versatile. I really wanted a pan that could go from freezer, to oven, to fridge. This pan is so solid and perfect for many applications. I frequently bake chicken and this pan is great for that.

These pans are awesome! They are well worth the extra money. More than double as thick as the cheap pans, and the edges seem very strong. I will update review if we have any problems with them. The cheap pans lasted us 2-3 years, so hopefully these last much longer!

As of my review this is the most advanced hotel pan Vollrath makes- the most durable corners. For the home chef, it's overkill. Looks nice, pleasant satin texture, and the stainless is resistant to corrosive stuff without having the endocrine disrupting chemicals of plastic. I've used it to brine meat and it worked a treat.

Vollrath Super Pan Vs are made of excellent quality stainless steel which is sturdy and stiff, however they came a bit jammed together in the box. We use these for freezer and refrigerator storage of sliced steaks, definitely worth the extra cost compared to other pans.

I ordered two of these pans to see how they would work for a specific application I had in mind. I wasn’t completely satisfied with them, because I needed flat bottoms for best results, and these are slightly bowed up in the middle. But they’re sturdy, well made and stack properly without jamming, so I decided to order four more pans. Unfortunately, the pans I just received seem to be defective, because they are NOT anti-jam. Straight out of the box, they were wedged together so tightly, it took me nearly an hour to separate them. I removed the plastic bag between the pans, assuming that was the culprit, only to discover they still won’t stack properly. The pans are way too snug to sit on the lugs. I’m surprised by the poor quality control from Vollrath.

We appreciate your feedback! We’re sorry this is defective. A Customer Solutions Representative will be contacting you soon.

The Super Pan V Vollrath is worth the extra money compared to the cheaper higher gauge stainless! They stack nice without sticking to each other and are very durable.

Vollrath is the way to go when purchasing a half hotel pan. They are definitely worth the extra few dollars for the quality of the item. They are tough and durable. I will never buy another brand.

These Vollrath Super Pans are awesome! Honestly, for the price, I expected a flimsy pan. Not at all. These pans are sturdy. I use them for baking and marinating as well. I would highly suggest these.

Great pan for the price. It's extra heavy weight compared to the other hotel pans, so it can stand a bit more heavy (or careless) use.

We use these half pans for our steam table on our food truck. These hold heat really well, much better than foil pans. They are durable and can be used for cooking too. We haven't had any problems with using these and these have increased the quality of our food service.

I have had many of these for many years and they last forever. I would always go with the Anti-Jam hotel pans as they make switching out pans on a buffet so much easier.

These pans are the best in the industry. Compared to other brands, Vollraths are noticeably heavier and really stand up over time. Other pans tend to discolor or even rust with heating / cooling / washing -- but not these. They are great.

We recently held a community dinner on our farm and these hotel pans were perfect for keeping the potatoes nice and warm. The pans are light weight and durable. After the meal they came clean really easily. This is a must have item for folks cooking for large groups!
