This is a versatile one and done pan. Your meal can be baked in it, served in it and 
what's left can be stored in it in the fridge; fewer dirty dishes makes me extremely happy! It's so lightweight, easy to put in and remove from the oven compared to heavy glass and ceramic pans. It's durable and chip resistant when it inevitably gets dropped. It's easy to wash and always comes clean no matter what baked on mess it goes through. I have made a few meals with red sauce in this pan and I've seen no discoloration or staining. A great piece of bakewear that can stand up to real life!
