I like Chicago Metallic COMERCIAL Pans... However, I think Chicago Metallic
NON Stick Pans are over priced and are terrible. They need a spray coating
according the "Owners Manual", like "Pam for Baking" spray. The darker the
pans the darker and almost burnt like sides of the bread. The temperature
needs to be about 25 degrees less than most bread making instructions. Also
they do not last forever, the non stick coatings wears out.

I personally hate, I mean dislike, the non stick pans. It is better to
grease the cheaper pans. In my unprofessional opinion.
