Hi all,

A restaurant supply store (more like a liquidation store) is selling full size sheet pans for $3 each. Is that good for a used pan? And will that fit in a regular size home-oven? I was thinking of buying a few but not sure. The picture they used to advertise them only shows about 50+ stacked up high.

That is a very good price BUT........without seeing it it's hard to say if it's a good buy.  They may be caked w/lots and lots of grease, dented, warped out of shape (won't sit level) and other things.  You would have to measure your oven to know if it would fit but most likely it won't.  Remember, there is a lip on each end that you need to figure into the measure.

No, they will not fit in a regular sized oven. But I use mine for storing and drying bc roses and royal iced cookies. That is still a nice deal though.

Wow I didn't know they were that cheap at Sam's. If you do but any I agree with kaeladi, check them for levelness and any warps or rust. When I bought mine used for five bucks, I went through the whole stack and picked out the best ones.

Thanks for all of your replies! I guess I'll leave those pans alone then. Some of them looked warped, but they only showed the side, no tops. I guess I really don't need anymore cookie pans, but I'm always looking for a good deal and an excuse to buy another kitchen item! :)

I purchase the pans from Sam's last year. I love them. They are well made. I use parchment paper on them and after a year of abuse, they still look like new. And they fit in a standard oven. ;)

GET OUT! REALLY?, thanks for the tip!

 

* I just measured my oven racks, they measure 24X16 1/2  the ones on the Sam's link are 26X18 :(  I already have those.

 

I thought that you might have gotten a special sheet pan for home ovens. I think I'm going to look around for some half sheet pans. You most have a pretty big oven, lol.

A half sheet pan will fit in my ovens, but not a full sheet...a place in Columbus, Ohio sells full sheets new for about $4-5...I use them for a lot of diff things...I bought cooling racks that fit them and use them not only for cooling, but for glazing cookies and just all kinds of things

By the way the name of that restaurant supply in Columbus is Restaurant Equippers
