Vollrath 72060 5 lb. Seamless Stainless Steel Bread Loaf Pan - 10 3/8" x 5 3/8" x 4"

Bearing in mind that I am not a professional chef, I AM an avid cook and I was really tired of cheaply-made loaf pans with poor quality non-stick coatings that peeled off after just a short time. I really wanted a SOLID stainless loaf pan, which has proven difficult to find in retail consumer stores. I decided to purchase a professional-grade loaf pan for making meatloaf, pound cake, etc as my other glass pans were a bit on the small side. I have not been disappointed with this pan. While the internal dimensions are a touch smaller than the stated dimensions, it is still plenty large enough for a 3 pound meatloaf. The flared rim and straight sides make it easy to drain off grease and the finish is SO easy to clean, and I can soak it without having to worry about a non stick finish coming up, the pan rusting or having to line with foil. Every time I clean it, it looks brand new. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Product description states Length: 8 3/4" and Width: 4 5/8" which turns out to be the border rim dimensions. The usable Length is 8 3/8" and Width is 4 5/16". Capacity is 3.625 lb. of water and not 3.75 lb. as stated on the product's description. By the rim it looks like 28 Gauge while the product's description mentions 22 Gauge. I have a loaf pan from another brand with about the same size, same material, 22 Gauge and it weighs more than double than this one, which confirms that this one.

I love these. Heavy, easy to clean, no weird coating so I can start at a higher temp to get good browning on gluten free loaves, they stack nicely, no warping, and best of all the bread releases perfectly cleanly. I could go on all day. They are well worth the price and if I ever manage to damage them beyond repair I am definitely buying more.

This is a well made, sturdy pan, and breads come out very well in it. I like the height of the pan that gives straight sides to the loaves instead of the mushroom shape I get from shallower pans. The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is the dimensions are misrepresented on the listing. It is listed as 10x6x4, but it’s nowhere near 6 inches wide. When measured rim to rim, the widest possible measure, it’s 5 3/8, not 6. While I am pleased with the performance of this pan, I was expecting something larger.

This pan comes in a good decent size and very easy to wash if needed to be reused. Great and reasonable price for it. It isn’t heavy and comfortable to hold. Highly recommend to all of you.

really like these pans your breads with a high rise. the stainless is easy to clean and retains heat. the finish is good no real sharp edges.

This pan has performed excellently for both quickbread and sandwich loaf use. Even browning, goes through the dishwasher with no issues. I am very pleased with the sturdiness as I wanted a nonreactive pan for overnight retarding of sourdough sandwich loaves.

This product is well made and sturdy. I know we will be able to get a lot of use out of this item. Only complain is the finish is not polished, therefore, there's always going to be finger prints showing. If you are ok with this minor problems, this is a fantastic product. Ship fast.

I searched for quite a while for a large size pan suitable for my mom to make Banana Nut Bread if she ever decided she was strong enough to cook again. She is an 89 year old widow who spent most of her life creating wonderful meals for her family and friends. Sadly, after dad died and she broke her hip and had to give up her house to move into a small apartment, she also had to give up most cooking. It made her heart hurt to give up most cooking. She recently agreed that, although severely limited on her ability to cook, she would try making some Banana Nut Bread since I told her I had found the perfect loaf pan to use. This experiment at cooking was very, very important to her. It wasn't just about the food--it was about creating Read More

After having used glass loaf pans for quite a while, I decided it was time to move on to stainless steel. This was in light of all of the horror stories I had heard from glass shattering while coming out of the oven. I looked around for a while to decide on which loaf pan specifically would work best for my situation. This was the right fit for a few reasons. First, it is stainless steel. I did not want aluminum or another metal that could be less durable and/or leach things into the food (i.e. lead). Second, Vollrath makes these in America. It is very difficult to find cookware made in the USA these days - really anywhere but China. Third, the size was just right for the loafs I enjoy making. I use this pan twice a week and it is perfect. It is not too thick nor too thin, and I imagine I will get years of use out of it.

The first thing that strikes you is that this is a Quality product that is rigid and not flimsy. Next, when baking bread or custards, remember that stainless steel is not a great conductor, so you might have to add baking time to your recipe. Finally, you will be pleased with the larger size, 10" x 6" x 4", that allows larger loaves of bread and renders itself to cooking for "Big Eaters" when it comes to custards. Remember, you will have to adjust your recipes for the larger size and the fact that stainless steel will require more time in the oven. Sorry to say, I did not try any meat recipes.

works very well, I purchased this mostly to use for quick breads, it does a great job. Unlike the typical standard pan, this one gives you a little more room to grow, even if you just make the standard loaf in this pan.

This pan is great! I always get stuck making the bread for holidays with the family and now I dont have to bake as long with just one pan!!

I have nothing but good things to say for this pan. It is made of extremely high quality and it bakes a great, albeit huge, loaf every single time. Highly recommend!
