Know before you buy
Yes, the rack measures 12 inches by 8.25 inches, which is specifically designed to fit perfectly inside standard quarter-sheet baking pans.
The rack is oven-safe up to 450°F. It is suitable for most roasting and baking tasks, but you should avoid using it under a broiler where temperatures can exceed this limit.
To preserve the integrity of the non-stick coating, we recommend using silicone, wood, or nylon utensils. Metal tools can scratch the surface and reduce the lifespan of the coating.
While the cross-wire design is sturdy, it does require a bit more attention than a flat surface. We recommend soaking it briefly if food residue gets stuck in the intersections, followed by a gentle scrub with a soft sponge.
While the rack is durable, hand washing is recommended to maintain the quality of the non-stick coating over time. Harsh dishwasher detergents can degrade the finish faster than gentle hand washing.
