NutriChef 13-Inch Nonstick Pizza Tray - Round Carbon Steel Non-Stick Pizza Baking Pan with Perforated Holes, Premium Bakeware Pizza Screen with Silicone Grip Handles, Dishwasher Safe - Copper Copper 1 Pack
Overview
The NutriChef 13-Inch Nonstick Pizza Tray is a lightweight, perforated carbon-steel baking pan designed to produce a crisp, evenly browned pizza crust in a home oven. With a copper-colored nonstick silicone coating, 0.4 mm thick carbon-steel construction, and built-in silicone grip handles, it balances fast heat transfer and easy handling for everyday cooks. It’s best for people who make thin-crust or frozen pizzas, reheat leftovers, or want a low-maintenance alternative to a heavy pizza stone. The pan is dishwasher-safe and free of PFOA/PFOS/PTFE, but it has a 446°F (230°C) maximum recommended temperature, so it’s intended for standard home ovens rather than extremely high-temperature, restaurant-style baking.
Key Features
- Dimensions: labeled 13-inch pizza pan; actual outer dimensions 14.6" x 13" x 0.79" — fits most standard ovens but check interior clearance.
- Material & thickness: carbon-steel tray, 0.4 mm thickness for quick heat transfer and lighter weight than cast-iron or stone.
- Perforated design: evenly spaced holes in the baking surface to vent moisture and encourage a crisper crust.
- Nonstick copper silicone coating: restaurant-style nonstick finish that’s PFOA/PFOS/PTFE-free for easier release and cleaning.
- Silicone grip handles and care: integrated black silicone handle covers for safer handling; dishwasher-safe per manufacturer (hand washing recommended to extend coating life).
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Perforated surface promotes airflow and a crispier crust by allowing moisture to escape.
- Carbon-steel construction (0.4 mm) delivers fast, even heat transfer for consistent browning.
- Copper-colored nonstick silicone coating makes release and cleanup easier and is PFOA/PFOS/PTFE free.
- Silicone grip handles provide safer, cooler handling when removing the pan from the oven.
- Dishwasher-safe design and lightweight form make storage and cleanup convenient for frequent use.
Cons
- Relatively thin (0.4 mm) metal can warp under repeated extreme heat or rough handling.
- Maximum recommended temperature is 446°F (230°C), limiting use for very high-heat pizza styles.
- Perforations can allow cheese, sauce, or toppings to drip through, creating oven messes.
- Nonstick coating wears over time; using metal utensils or abrasive cleaners will shorten its life.
Recommendations
- Home cooks who prefer thin-crust or New York–style pizzas that benefit from extra bottom crisping.
- People who reheat frozen or leftover pizzas and want faster, crisper results than a baking sheet.
- Small households or apartment renters who need a lightweight, easy-to-store alternative to a pizza stone.
- Bakers looking for a multipurpose perforated pan for flatbreads, crackers, or quick oven crisping (avoid wet, saucy bakes that may drip).
