Having learnt about silicone bake ware for many years, but having actually never ever used it, I was doubtful about how well it would work as a non-stick material and as a method to reduce the long term wear and tear on baking sheets great deals of ditching and scrubbing can be agonizing on metal baking sheets after a couple years of use. I have bought many non-stick baking pans over the years, and have actually been very dissatisfied with them. None of them are truly all that non-stick and the non-stick finish has always begun exfoliating after a year or two of use. After making use of these a couple times, all I can say is wow, I am offered on silicone bake ware. The non-stick-ability of these silicone mats is excellent. The very first thing I cooked with them is a homemade pizza. The pizza and any misplaced garnishes such as cheese, which typically bakes on as brown/black cement when it touches a metal pan did not stick to the silicone at all. The pizza literally slid around on the mat a little as I was taking it out of the oven. I was completely impressed with how well it worked. There was a slight chemical smell the first time I made use of the mats. I expected this. It did not influence the scent or the flavour of the food that cooked on it and was not over powering. If you are stressed over this impacting your food, I would bake the mat by itself in the oven for like half an hour to an hour. This item can hang on to grease a bit.

I baked bacon on one of the mats, and mat felt somewhat greasy/oily up until after a couple more baking/hand wash cycles. I nearly consider this a reward as bacon is amazing, and I wish to believe that the greasy feeling flavoured foods prepared on it flavoured them with bacon. Generally, I am extremely pleased with my purchase and would recommend these to anyone looking for a better baking experience..
