OXO sells the Good Grips Non-Stick Pro Ceramic Coated square cake pan as part of its ceramic coated metal bakeware, and the brand describes it as a bakeware solution that's "beautiful, durable and easy to clean." This review goes through what the Amazon listing says about the pan's build, coating, design and care, including the places where the listing's own fields use different wording.
What Is the OXO Good Grips Non-Stick Pro Square Cake Pan?
It is a single square cake pan from OXO's Good Grips Non-Stick Pro line. The listing shows a unit count of one, and the pan itself is the only included component.
OXO calls it ceramic coated metal bakeware: a body made with heavy-gauge aluminized steel and a ceramic non-stick coating. In the product description, the brand says this square pan is "ideal for layered cakes." The listing's Item Highlight field also names brownies and cakes, and the description mentions both sweet and savory baking.
Build: Heavy-Gauge Aluminized Steel
The Material and Material Type fields both list aluminized steel. The feature bullets and product description describe it as heavy-gauge aluminized steel.
According to OXO, the pan is constructed this way for "stability, even heat distribution and durability for years to come."
The listing also describes a square-rolled edge. The feature bullet says it provides structure, strength and durability, and the description says it "adds structure and strength to the bakeware."
The Ceramic Non-Stick Coating
The feature bullets say the ceramic non-stick coating easily releases food and protects against scratching, staining, corrosion and abrasion.
The product description repeats those points and adds that the "efficient ceramic non-stick coating heats quickly and evenly." The Item Highlight field lists "Easy Turnout" as well.
Beyond calling it a ceramic non-stick coating, the listing does not describe what the coating is made from.
Zero-Draft Walls and Even Browning
OXO groups two features under the heading "Consistent Baking Results."
The first is zero-draft walls. The listing says these give straight and uniform cake layers, and the product description connects them to layered cakes, saying the zero-draft walls "allow for straight and uniform cake layers."
The second is the light interior coating color. OXO says it is "optimized for even browning," and the description applies this to both sweet and savory baking. The Item Highlight field also includes "High Walls for Even Browning."
Rim Handles and a Secure Grip
Under "Thoughtfully Designed," the listing describes expanded rim handles for easier handling in and around the oven.
The product description words this slightly differently, saying the wide rims "provide a secure grip for easier handling in and around the oven." "Secure Grip" also appears in the Item Highlight field.
Cleaning and Care: Dishwasher Safe or Hand Wash?
The listing says the rounded interior corners allow for easier cleaning, and OXO describes the pan overall as "easy to clean."
On washing, the listing uses two different wordings:
- The Item Highlight field includes "Dishwasher Safe."
- The product description ends with "Hand wash for best results."
There is no separate care instructions field on the listing, so both statements are shown here exactly as they appear.
Dimension Markings on the Pan
Under "Easy Size Identification," OXO says each pan features pan dimension markings on the top surface, "so you can find the right bakeware item for your recipe."
Size and Measurements
The listing gives two sets of measurements. A feature bullet lists internal and external figures in both inches and centimeters, while the Product Dimensions and Item Dimensions fields list a separate set of figures. Both sets are shown in the specifications table, along with the listed weight.
Color: Strom Blue or Storm Blue?
The Color field lists the shade as "Strom Blue." The Item Highlight field spells it "Storm Blue." Both spellings appear in the listing, and both are kept here as written.
What the Listing Does Not Include
The listing does not give an upper temperature rating for the pan, and it has no manufacturer warranty description. It also makes no coating claims beyond the ceramic non-stick coating described above.
Final Thoughts
Going by its Amazon listing, the OXO Good Grips Non-Stick Pro square cake pan combines a heavy-gauge aluminized steel body with a ceramic non-stick coating. OXO adds rounded interior corners, expanded rim handles, zero-draft walls, a light interior coating, dimension markings on the top surface and a square-rolled edge.
The brand presents it as "ideal for layered cakes," and the listing also names brownies, cakes, and sweet and savory baking. The two things to note are the mixed care wording, with "Dishwasher Safe" in one field and "Hand wash for best results" in the description, and the absence of a listed temperature rating or warranty description.
