Oven Trays

Thanks, it is all helpful.
The last time i resesrched a bit, I saw people complaining that some trays listed as stainless steel aren't actually 100 percent steel.

Its quite a rsbbit hole!
I seem to remember roast potatoes leaving the crispy outer part stuck to the tray, and being left with the soft "inner", so thats why I've always gone for non stick.

That, and the fact that i can get a non stick tray in poundland!!.
Mine do look pretty disgusting, though.

Not much use to you but I am using my mother’s stainless steel trays. They come out of the dishwasher sparkling. They are a heavy gauge and must be 50 Yeats old! Go for stainless steel, no coating to chip and have never understood why you would want non stick surfaces on them.

I read a review somewhere of a particular brand of bakewear.
A guy said that his mum had been a domestic science teacher, and had owned her for over 30 years, then, when she died the son had tsken them and they were still going strong.
Just wish i could remember the brand!

Thanks for the tips! Ours are currently all on the way out, but I refuse to replace anything until adult children wrecking, errr, using all our things “bugger off”,
(Move out!).

Yes, they clean easily, just a normal dish scourer is fine.

Thank you.
Hot soapy water should do the trick here (no dishwasher)
I assume i can scrub them if necessary.

Yes, they are good for anything really, I put them straight in the dishwasher and they come up clean every time.

I was thinking about stsinless steel, Casdon.
Are they ok for things like roast potatoes?

I’ve had Prestige for years. They’re the right depth for most baking requirements and they don’t warp.

Mine are all stainless steel, I’ve gradually replaced everything. They last forever, and still look perfect.

I've bought carbon steel ones, seem good, we will see how long they last.

Oh I'm glad to see this.
I have a forensic expert living in the house who has to examine everything in intricate detail for any specks.

My trays don't pass.
Guilty!

I-got mine many years ago fromM&S, they are non stick and have worn exceptionally well.

Dunelm do a range of non-stick 'heavy gauge' baking trays, if it's non-stick you want. 10 year guarantee and worth a look.

We got a set of three Joseph Joseph oven trays of different sizes, they were expensive but they are excellent quality.

I got one sent from Lakeland by mistake. I phoned & told them but they said just donate it, of which I did to myself.
Very good. Hasn’t warped or gone rusty.
Ended up buying another larger one.

Have a look at Lakeland. Where feasible, I like loose-bottomed trays/tins, which Scoville don't seem to do (might be mistaken on that).

Scoville are the only ones to buy.
