Just ok
I'm using this as a mold for my home made soap. The sides of the silicone mold bulge out a little when Its filled and I don't like that so much because it changes the shape of the bars of soap. I do like that the soap releases from the mold very easily with absolutely no sticking. It's easy to clean in soaps and warm water. This is the first time I've used silicone and it just may be the nature of the material (silicone) but I wish it was as a little more sturdier.

Exactly The Bread Pan I NEED
I love this bread pan! I've been looking for one like this for years, ever since I accidentally gave mine to my sister. She won't give it back. I'll try very hard to think of some 'cons', but in the meantime, here are the 'pros' for this little gem:(I will note here that I did follow the manufacturer's directions and I washed the pan before use (in the dishwasher) and greased it before the first few uses.)PROS:1. Vertical buttresses: Those vertical ridges you see on the side are THE reason I bought this particular bread pan. Keep reading for more info.2. Horizontal buttresses: See those flat projections from the bottom of the bread pan? The ones that connect to the vertical buttresses on the side? This is the second part of the ingenious BPSS (Bread Pan Support System) built into this marvel of engineering. Together, these two features provide unmatched support for this pan and for whatever is in it. Together, they keep the floppy silicone sides from bowing outwards, and prevent the bread from collapsing under its own weight. I cook gluten free, and many of the doughs I use are very thick and heavy, and they cause my other silicone pans to collapse, resulting in "pancakes" rather than "loaves." It is extremely difficult to make convincing PB&Js for picky 10 year olds from "pancakes." But just this morning I made a loaf of French bread in this pan, and by the time it was finished rising and baking, my loaf was close to six inches tall. If you know anything about gluten free breads at all, I'm sure your jaw is on the floor now too.3. Non stick: And when they say non-stick, they mean NON STICK. It's so non-stick that washing it after use is sort of pointless. I wash it anyway, though, because....4. Dishwasher washable: Not that it needs washing, but I stick it on the top rack and walk away. Makes me feel virtuous and competently housewifely -- baking AND cleaning up. Yes, there are some water spots after my dishwasher is done, but I bought this to bake in, not to look at.5. Smaller than your average silicone bread pan: Because I'm baking gluten free, my breads need all the help they can get to rise nicely. The silicone bread pans I have been using are HUGE (well, OK, they're 10.5" X 5.5") and allow the dough to sprawl all over the place, even before the floppy silicone sides bow outwards. The nice, compact size of this bread pan (combined with the excellent side supports) gives my dough no place to go but up. Fluffy dough = children who will eat GF bread they claim to hate = happy mother = no jail time for anyone. This is a series of events I can get behind in a very positive way.6. Crispy crust: Top, bottom, and sides. Oh, yum.CONS:I thought of one: The color is really hideous. There's just no other way to say it. But, like I said, I bought this to bake in, not to look at.I am certain there are other excellent silicone bread pans on the market, but this is the one I needed -- for all the reasons mentioned above -- and this is the one which makes me do a little happy dance whenever I have to bake. And, since I hate baking, that's really saying something.

Stains and doesn't hold form
Every time I bake using this product, it becomes harder to get it clean. After 4 uses - the edge/rim/lip is stained. I even used metal scrubbers - it's not coming clean. Inside where the bread is - it does clean out easily. I think the stains are from the cooking spray (recommended for the first several uses by the manufacturer). In any case/whatever the reason, combined with not holding form and allowing the sided to push out - I wouldn't buy it again.

This is a great bread pan
This is a great bread pan. I use it to make a delicious protein/paleo bread and it works perfect. It does seem a bit "cheap", but works great! I had to pick off some left over silicon chucks before using, I assume from manufacturaing. No big deal though. These work very well.

Use to bake bread inside of a dutch oven
I just used my pan for the first time. Used a portion of no-knead recipe whole wheat bread dough that had risen in a mixing bowl. Filled the silicone pan about 2/3. Second rise tool it to about the top go the pan, then placed it inside a 6-1/2 qt dutch oven. Baked for 22 minutes at 425F.The bread baked/browned perfectly, and easily removed from my new pan.To make slightly larger slices next time I'll fill the pan a bit more so the crown of the baked bread finishes higher than the top of the pan.This silicone loaf pan is a great product, highly recommended, and thanks to the vendor for the little gift spatula that was included with my shipment!

Used once and returned to my old metal pan. Just not what I expected.

but this pan by Slick Cups is amazing, and other people need to know about it
I don't normally review things, but this pan by Slick Cups is amazing, and other people need to know about it. Its very well made, with little silicone ridges on each side to help hold the pan sides up, which my old silicone bread bad lacked. It also has little feet, to keep everything stable. The bottom is wavy, which I thought was odd, but helps to keep everything from sticking. After I ordered, Slick Cups sent me an email, thanking me for my order, and giving me some tips on the best way to use it. I can't recommend this bread pan, or this company enough.

Disappointing at best. I've used silicone baking ware before and had no problems. My Paleo banana bread stuck to the bottom of this and the bread did not cook uniformly. Have made the same recipe in a traditional loaf pan and it was perfect.
