Best Baking Cooling Racks Stainless Steel

👤This is the second time we have purchased this exact rack. Both lasted less than a month. I challenge the 75lb weight limit. The pan holders are bent. The first unit fell apart. We have never placed 75 lbs on a row. I believe this to be a manufacturing flaw, as you can see in the third photo. I believe weight shimmy's the bolts loose despite setting this up properly and tightening the screw as tight as practical. Over and over. This review would change if they sent locttite, locking washers, etc. The reason the rails bend is because the trays sit on the tips of the rails. If they engineer the bolts to stay tight when rolled around. A food cart is a lot of weight. I have wasted money. I purchased it a second time because they had a fire sale on a damaged unit that I could not pass on.

👤The first box arrived. The directions tell you to check the quantity. There are 8 bolts included to attach the support bars. There are only 6 screws. The second box has 6 screws again and 6 screws twice for 8 holes...what type of games are we playing? Help it make sense.

👤The rack is light and sturdy. It took my husband 15 minutes to put it together. I have an issue with getting pans to fit it and that is the only reason for the 4 star review. I use the Nordic ware sheet pan because it fits in my iven and bakes my cookies evenly. They are too small for the rack. The commercial ones are too large for my oven. The cheap ones from Walmart didn't fit. The Nordic Ware 1/2 sheet is 10 dollars a piece and is the only pans I have found. Two will fit on one slot. I would be looking for 200 dollars in pans to fill this up. It's disappointing that I can't do anything with the Walmart ones because they won't fit in my rack.

👤We left the wheels off, cut the bottom two levels off, drilled new holes, re-attached the support bars, and stuck some end caps on the bottoms from the hardware store. We use it to transport trays to the farmers market and it fits perfectly in my car. We bought a clear vinyl cover. We carry this rack from the back of the car to the table in our tent. It looks professional, we can organize by tray, and the load capacity is huge. It's easy to keep clean. It works on a counter too. It fits our long and half trays. Great product.

👤I bake a lot of bread, cakes and cookies in my small kitchen. The rack holds 20. Baking sheets are half-size. I can have sheets of cookie dough, rolls or bread prepared and waiting to go in the oven on one side, and cookies cooling on the other. I ordered a full size baking sheet to use in the top rack to put my canisters of bread flour, pastry flour, semolina and sugar. I keep the rack next to the John Boos maple work table. It is easy to assemble, very sturdy, and a great price. I use it every day and I am very happy I bought it. Don't hesitate to purchase if you do a lot of baking. I need a double oven now.

👤I was an avid baker and loved my old Wilton stacking racks, but they had rusted and I replaced them with something else. I don't know why they did it, but the slats are too far apart. Smaller food items fall through as soft cookies weep. The quality is not as good because the metal is a smaller gauge. I'm looking for something else. This hurts.

👤I wanted the perfect cookie rack. They are dishwasher proof and easy to put together. What is wrong with them? They were not designed by a cookie baker. cookies fall through the gaps in the Racks. A real ache! Carefully place one cookie at a time. I make a lot of cookies. I'll keep looking!

👤We opened the package after we received it. This well known brand has decided to make this item cheaply. When opening the package, the rust was visible immediately. It was very let down. I will not purchase items from Wilton.

👤They seem to be making them differently. There are no double wires that run through it. It's now very hot! These are very bad with them. Place a loaf of banana bread on top of a pumpkin roll and they bow in the middle, the legs spread out and the rack collapses. All 3 are the same. It's horrible for wilton. Don't waste your money if you don't use them. It's great for baking. They're so handy that I have 4 sets left.

👤These are great! Definitely saves space. I don't know if I'd trust it when stacked for a heavy cake, but it's great for our cookies and muffins. Hopefully this review helped you.

👤I ran into a problem with getting hot things out of pans to cool because I was doing a lot of baking. After using paper towels on the table to cool cookies and turning bread out onto the electric elements on the stove top, I decided to stop being cheap and get some cooling racks. I did a bit of research before buying these racks. I was happy to say that I was pleased with my purchase after trying them for the first time. The racks are easy to clean. I washed them before using and they dried quickly. It is ready to use in a few minutes. I decided to try the stacking feature because I have a large working surface. They stack easily and securely so you can be confident that your baked goods won't fall. I was able to store the cookies in a freezer bag after a few minutes of cooling. I was able to refill the rack several times, leaving enough time between trays for the cookies to cool and be bags. Every time, the cookies were released. I put the racks in the sink for a quick clean up after baking. It is very easy to clean and dry. I'll be making a few loaves of bread tomorrow. I am confident that the racks will be useful again. I bought the mixer and it's been the best investment I've made. If you are looking for a good quality cooling rack, you will be happy with this purchase.

👤The pan is warped within a minute or two of being put in the oven. I heard a noise in the oven. Can't believe it. I had high expectations for this set.

👤The cookie sheets were in the oven for a while. The oven temperature was at 300 degrees, which was the main reason why these were purchased. There is a French dessert called French macarons. The entire batches didn't turn out because of the cookie sheets. I am happy with the mats and the rack. The sheet pans should be made of thicker metal.

👤The cookie sheets were the worst I have ever had. You hear a loud pop about a minute after you put them in the oven, and everything on the cookie sheet goes flying in the oven. The heat from the oven can cause pans to be out of shape, which is a huge safety concern. If you open the oven to check on something and there is flaming hot cookie dough on your face, the mats are hard to clean. If I could, I would not rate this.

👤Pans did not return to their original shape after their second use. The inserts are easy to clean, but leave a faint stain. I haven't used the cooling racks, but they seem fine.

👤I thought they were a bit thin compared to my other baking sheets. It is not a factor after using them several times. The metal used is of a higher quality than the aluminum sheets that are inferior. The mats and rack are of good quality. The pans tend to warp when heated but return to shape when cooling, which is my only concern. Unless there is a lot of liquid in your baking, it's not a problem. A deeper pan would be used in that event.

👤Things stick to them like nobodies business when they warp in the oven. The cooling rack times are too far apart. The only part of this that works well is the mats, but things stick to them after a single cookie. Very disappointing.

👤They are disappointing. When in the oven, they twist up. Several meals were ruined. It's really frustrating.

👤These baking sheets are terrible. I put everything on them and they come out not as good as they should. Sometimes parts are not cooked fully, and everything takes longer to cook than usual. I know it's not my oven because I've never had this problem with my other baking sheets. The cooling rack and cookie mats are great. Don't waste your money like I did.

👤Lleg rpido, son tal. Muy buena calidad.

👤The reasons I recommend this rack are listed below. The construction is heavy gauge, solid stainless steel, the best quality that doesn't attract a magnet. There are two more The finish is smooth and bright. The welds are perfect. It was constructed with an eye for detail. There are 3 more The grid is tight and will keep your food from sagging. There are four Three cross bars are used for a total of six feet. The rack is stable. There are five The dimensions fit in the standard half-pans. I have Nordic Ware pans, and this rack fits perfectly. 6) The company contacted me to make sure I was happy with their product. That is a good sign of Kitchenatics. I received nothing in return for a good review. I'm not one of the reviewers who get stuff for free from Amazon. The review is honest and unbiased.

👤The America's Test Kitchen has been recommended to me many times and I have found it to be a great success. They have always cleaned up quickly for me with a soapy brush at the sink, and I have never experienced rust issues. They have done a great job for my needs. I ran out of rack space for a big project. These caught my attention when I was shopping for more racks. I thought I'd give them a try. How do they stack up? I always expect to be disappointed when I try anything blind. You might call me a cynic. * I have been pleasantly surprised. I could not imagine a rack that could go wrong with these. They fit my half sheets and are shiny. If price is a consideration and you're going to be using them as cooling rack and you're willing to wash your hands, I see no reason not to use the CIA rack. If I had an oven application, I would grab the Kitchenatics. Also a nerd. CIA 18.2 oz. Kitchenatics 17.91 oz.

👤I use a heavy duty cooling rack in my smoker to keep bacon out of the grate. The cross supports are strong. The unit is higher quality and costs more. I was docked for not controlling quality. The one I received had some messed up welds. I expected it to be straight. I tried to bend the wires back, but they are welded solid.

👤I waited several months to post this because I wanted to use the product extensively and see how we liked it. We make a lot of baked chicken, chicken wings, and pork chops, so we were looking for something to keep them out of the grease as they cook. I put this product with a Nordic Ware aluminum Baker's sheet and it was what we were looking for. The wings are very thin on 888-739-5110 It's difficult to clean. One of the best things about the product is the small grid, so I don't know how that could be fixed. It's worth the extra time to make sure you've gotten everything off.

👤I am very disappointed. Within 11 minutes of the oven, the pan warped and twisted. It never did completely change. I was expecting a better price for 34 dollars. This item will definitely be returned.

👤I bought two of these pans to use for Christmas cooking. I spent Christmas eve cooking and baking with these pans. There was a lot of build up in the pans. I baked fish on top of the rack. I loved them! But them. When it was time to clean them, I soaked them in warm water and let them sleep. This is what I woke up to today, as I do with all my pans. My pans are ruined. I have had my 40 dollar pans for 40 years. I loved these pans for 6 hours and then I had to clean them. I'm very disappointed. I wish you a Merry Christmas.

👤I will definitely order another one of these pans. Excellent quality, I love how sturdy this pans is. I checked the Amazon description and it said it was dishwasher safe, but I was hesitant to put it in the dishwasher. I should have washed them with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and dish soap, but they came out with dried spots. I tried and the spots came out. The pan's finish looked scratched. See the picture! Hand wash the pan. There is no clean up if the pan is lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.

👤The pan and rack are small. I like it. The material rusts because of the rolled in edges that retain water. It leaves brown rust water when I pick it up. I think I will have to return it. It's the perfect size and would be great for baking fish.

👤The pan and rack are heavy, so that's a plus, but there are problems. There is a heavy edge, but there is a gap between the side of the pan and the rim, so you can't really dry it well, so rust will build up over time. The top edge of the pan has rough spots that look like a knife was run over it. There is a spot on the rack edge that is stuck and can not be removed. I haven't cooked it yet, but I think it will be a great pan.

👤Within a month my pan is starting to rust in the crevices on the back side and is completely discolored from hot substances making contact with it. The pan is not holding up the way I expected, but the rack is fine. It works well for cooling and drying out food, but the fit and finish fell apart very quickly. I expected it to be a bit more durable, but maybe there's some user error here, I should have seasoned it or it's not for use with high temperature liquids or foods.

👤The pan/rack set is perfect for me. It was used for drying salted steaks in the fridge. The 1/2 size sheet pan takes up a lot of space. This one is large enough to fit on the top shelf. Excellent quality and weight. It's great for baking and other cooking tasks, if you use it on the small size, and I use it to bake a few sweet potatoes at a time. I would buy again in a heartbeat.

👤Well made was put in the dishwasher and came out clean. Doesn't warp and food doesn't stick. I am happy with the price.

👤I have several of these.

👤The rack is large. It doesn't fit in the pan.

👤When cooking chicken in the oven.

👤The cooling rack is made of heavy duty steel. It's well made, not like any other cooling rack that's light and flimsy. My husband used the rack to cook bacon and it came out great. I like the higher raised feet to allow for quicker cooling. It comes with a life time warranty. It's easy to store a dishwasher.

👤I knew I wanted something that fit inside my pans when I had to replace my cooling rack. The cooling racks are constructed with more feet for support than before. They are designed to be used as a rack for baking vegetables or meat. I don't have to worry about the finish coming off of these cooling rack because they are clean. The racks have a lifetime warranty if you register.

👤I used the rack to cook chicken. It was the perfect size for me, I sprayed it with Pam and it made the clean up easy. The weight of the rack was not a problem.

👤The gauge is thick on this rack. They are not kidding when they say it is commercial grade. It's better than my old rack, and I can tell it will last me a long time. It's easy to clean up when you use non-stick cooking spray. I have used it as a cooling rack for cookies and empanadas. I will use it with some meat. Highly recommended.

👤This is a great product. It feels very sturdy and is a nice weight. It is small, so it doesn't take up as much space as my other drying rack. It's perfect for cookies, cupcakes, and more. I am very happy with this purchase.

👤It is a perfect small size so it doesn't take up a lot of space in storage. It's cool because it can fit in a standard pan. It's also oven safe, which is cool. It seems like it would break easily and sooner than it would if it were made out of stronger material, which is the only complaint I have. If you want a basic cooling rack, this will do the job for you while remaining within your budget.

👤I bought this to replace some of the older cooling racks that we have had for many years that are starting to fall apart. The rack was able to fit into a cookie sheet so I could bake things without having to flip it over. I have had other cooling racks and they are not as sturdy as this one. There are dents in the grid that look like someone bent the squares out with scissors. The counter is not flat, but it does not sit perfectly flat. Does not think it will fall apart soon.

👤I had a bad night trying to make Christmas cookies. The cookie press wasn't spurting out the cookies, the recipe wasn't normal, and the cookies were sticking to the cookie sheets. I wasted a lot of time. I bought the cooling rack to speed up the process and found my old cookie recipe. It was a great Christmas gift for me.

👤Purchase based on reviews. It doesn't fit the standard cookie sheet. It's too small for my first cookbook and the new one will work for grilling.

👤These are easy to clean and sturdy, and the wife loves them for food prep and preserving vegetable's. Excellent value.

👤I've seen a lot of them. I've seen long ones and thin ones. I've seen short ones and tall ones. The rack is very sturdy.

👤It's great for all oven meats. There are wings,roasts,chops.

👤These are great value.

👤After taking my canned food jars out of the pressure cooker, I bought these racks to put them on. They are perfect for that. I will use them for many other things, such as cooling baked goods. I recommend them.

👤They work well in a pan. They are made to last.

👤Im Kauf ist das Ofenbleche leicht, das von den Rndern bilden. Dadurch ist nun mindesten 2 Probleme, denn die Roste bei im Backofen verwenden. In die Ofenfcher, die Einschieben, is in die form. Nun ist das Backbleche passen, das somit etwas schief. Allemal und preiswert ist das robust.

👤The Gitter is recht stabil. The problem is the Scharfkantigkeit der Metallenden. Somit besteht bei jedem Handgriff, der bei der Reinigung. Im Rckversand ist die Rckversand selbst. It was Schade.

👤Die beiden Gitter aus. The stabil is ideal zum the Auskhlen von Gebck. Sie ist die Dienste geleistet. Backen whrend. Man is in die Splmaschine legen. Ich ist empfehlen.

👤One of the racks was slightly broken. Does the job for the price?

👤Exactly what my kitchen needed. It's hard to fit them into my baking sheets when they are all different sizes. I needed more to bake goods than to bake cookies.

👤The seller described the cooling rack as sturdy and steel. Excellent price point too!

👤These are well-constructed and not easy to bend or twist. After a few dishwasher cycles, there is no rust. So far, so good.

👤cookies on large one

👤The rod ends are sharp and cut your fingers.

👤I can use these racks for a variety of needs, they are sturdy and well made.

👤Don't bake or fry wings without this thing.

👤Best purchase ever! I am enjoying cookies. I use all my counter space. I thought it would be nice to have this gem. I was glad I did. Cookie orders are coming in and the baby is paying for it. I love how sturdy it is. I keep the crumbs from falling onto the cookies by putting them on the levels. It works like a charm. You can get 24 mini cookies per rack if you choose the size of your cookies. There are 6 large cookies and mini hearts in the photo. If you need more space, this set is for you. Best decision ever.

👤I was really happy with my purchase. The wire rack is great for cooling off cookies. They are easy to clean. The legs are folded up and it is around an inch high. If you don't have a large work area, they are great. I bought four of them. Depending on the size of the cookies, you can fit around 14-20 on each rack.

👤I've bought cooling rack in the past. These are of very high quality. The wires are thicker so you don't feel like they won't support the weight when stacking them. Excellent product.

👤To air fry in a full size oven. It's been exactly what the person wanted.

👤I like the fact that you have the option to use one rack alone or stack all of the other rack on top. I have been using this to dry my makeup brushes. The racks are sturdy. When I first got them, I cleaned them in the dishwasher. After putting my makeup brushes away, I sprayed the rack with alcohol and wiped it down. The racks collapse nicely. The features allow for easy storage.

👤These are great for space. The fridge is pictured on the counter. I'm glad I bought them. They are strong.

👤These are wonderful for curing soap. They are easy to maneuver. As my soap hobby grows, I will definitely purchase these again.

👤These are metal pieces. In my opinion, there will never be anything easy to clean about them. They work like expected. There were no defects. The operator tried to restack them.
