Magic Brownie Pan

not so amazing
This is one of those gifts you get that looks like a much better idea than it is. First off, the pan is a non standard size. Most brownie direction base timing on the size of the pan. Next there is the BP like oil spill you get from all the cooking spray you have to coat this thing in. I don't know many people who actually like the taste of cooking spray and with the pools of oil that are created by coating every surface you will taste it. Now the biggest problem with the pan, the bottom of the pan has a hole, a metal panel sits in that. The panel isn't perfectly flat so there is a gap between at least 1 corner and the pan. The weight of the batter isn't enough to press the panel down. I thought the fact that you heat the pan first maybe as you pour the batter it would cook the outside layer and seal the pan, NOPE! That's why the directions suggest you should put foil under the pan, basically to catch the large amount of batter that will be leaking out. Removing the brownies...

It's junk. Pure junk.
The only reason I gave it one-star is because zero-stars wasn't available.

Firstly, who makes a product meant to hold a liquid that has a removable (but not sealable) bottom? I followed the pre-heating instructions (which supposedly "keeps the batter from leaking").....and yet as soon as I started pouring the batter in, it was leaking. When I picked it up to put the pan in the oven, about 25% of my batter was pooled up under the pan. I'm just thankful that I caught the problem before putting it in the oven. Otherwise, my cleanup would have been a LOT worse.

Oh....and it should say something about the quality of the product that the manufacturer doesn't even put their name, address or URL on the packaging. There is literally NOTHING on the box or enclosed paper that indicates the name of the people who manufactured this thing.

It's junk. Don't buy it. It was a Christmas present for my son who, needless to say, is disappointed.

what a bad purchase this was!
I bought this item because I thought it would MAKE MY LIFE EASIER WHEN i BAKE BROWNIES.
WELL, IT DID NOT! ON THE CONTRARY, DESPISE THE BETTER I PUT ON EVERY SINGLE PART OF THE TRAY, SEPARATOR ETC, THE FINAL PRODUCT WAS FALLING APART AND WAS UNEATABLE.
I PROMISED MYSELF THAT I WILL NEVER AGAIN BUY SOMETHING SEEN ON TELEVISION.
BE AWARE OF IT FOR THE FOLLOWING BUYER. YOU MIGHT HAVE MORE THAN COMPLAINS.
MY ONE STAR RATING IS EVEN TOO MUCH!!! BUT I COULD NOT SEND THIS WITHOUT MARKING IT.
