Let me start by saying, if you're tired of unevenly baked cookies or struggling to shape dough, this U-Shape mold is a lifesaver. I tested it with cranberry cookie dough, and the results were *chef's kiss*.

The carbon steel construction is no joke—it feels sturdy in hand and heats evenly. My first batch of biscotti came out golden-brown without a single hot spot. No warping, even after 3 back-to-back baking sessions.

The non-stick coating? Absolute magic. I didn't even grease the mold (risky, I know), and my loaf bread slid out like it was on a waterslide. Cleanup took literally 30 seconds—just a quick rinse under warm water.

Pro tip: The U-shape is PERFECT for slice-and-bake cookies. No more eyeballing thickness—every cookie bakes uniformly. My kids actually thought I bought store-bought cookies because they looked so professional!

One tiny gripe? The rectangular molds are slightly smaller than expected (fit about 1.5 cups of dough). But for $20/set of 4? Still a steal compared to specialty baking stores.

Final verdict: 9/10 - Would bake again (and again). Especially recommend for holiday cookie prep when consistency matters!
