Durable Construction

Made from durable 22 gauge, 300 series stainless steel, this pan is built to last through heavy commercial use. The patented design of the Super Pan V® provides added strength, making this pan resistant to dents and dings in the toughest kitchen environments. The more bends in the steel for your hotel pan, the more durable the pan becomes.

Higher Rim with Flattened Edges

Being dent and ding resistant helps to maintain the Super Pan V® flat edge design.  The flat edge design paired with higher rims help to prevent loss of steam from your food wells, saving your establishment both in energy and cost.  This leaves you with a pan that is 38% more efficient compared to weaker pans with bent edges.  Additionally, the flat edges are more comfortable for employees to hold.

Easy Pour Corners

Rounded, diagonally tapered corners make it easier for cooks to pour out liquids and foods into storage containers. Also, rounded corners allow users to scoop out all food products more easily than from a pan with sharp corners.

1/2 Size

This 1/2 size steam table food pan is an essential item for any foodservice establishment. Thanks to its 6.7 qt. capacity, it’s perfect for holding foods like gravy, steamed vegetables, and mashed potatoes.

Anti-Jam Lugs

This pan is resistant to jamming thanks to its patented corner, edge, and rim design. Since it won’t jam, this pan can be stacked when not in use, and cooks can quickly take one off the top of the stack without it getting stuck. Vollrath's easy pour corners provide superior impact resistance. Plus, they act as a convenient pouring spout to eliminate wasteful drips or spills.

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!

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 hotel pans are extremely durable! We use them daily and run them through the dishwasher hundreds of times a month. I have never seen a single spot of corrosion...only light scratches and minor dents. I definitely recommend them!

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.
