How can a roaster pan only go up to 350 degrees instead of 400??? Rachel Ray???

Mine has been on higher wothout an issue. However i am usually slow roasting so haven't done a lot.

I have used it at 425 without any issues, so I'm not sure why it would be listed as a maximum of 350.

I think the information on Amazon is incorrect. On the product page at rachaelraystore.com, it says it is broiler-safe. (http://www.rachaelraystore.com/Product/detail/Rachael-Ray-Enamel-on-Steel-16-75x13-25-in-Roaster-with-Rack-Orange/300417)

Probably. I cook at lowest setting and it is 350. First time using it was way too hot for me and was over 500. I use wind blocks to keep heat in though

The dial indicates gradations between 200 to 400 degrees, plus a "warm" range.I hardly ever use higher than 350 because I cook with olive oil. I love my CucinaPro 12 inch skillet.

I am not sure why but it appears that the cooling rack can be used up to 350 degrees. As to the broiler, perhaps it is because of the aluminum. I have not used this one under the broiler not even my neighbor. If it requires 450 what are you making, I will suggest using another pan such as Farberware or Good Cook which are inexpensive and work fine even under the broiler.

The pan is rated to 500 degrees but the lid is only rated to 350 degrees for oven use.

I know I have had a temp over 400 degrees and also used the broiler and the liner is still fine. I was skeptical too but glad I bought it!!!

I don't know if there is a max temperature limit on these pans, but I roast vegetables using them all the time in the 400-450 degree range with absolutely no problems. They clean up easily with hand washing and look as good as new!! I LOVE these pans and have given a set to everyone in my family!! I do not use any kind of spray oil on them -- applying oil with a paper towel when I desire a little more protection than normal to make cleanup even simpler.

Checked with a candy thermometer the last time I used it and got just over 325 degrees F with just oil. After adding the breaded oysters, it dropped to just over 300 and remained there. I've always been able to get the food fried to satisfaction, but would still like to hit the 350 degree mark. Might not work with larger items like fried chicken, but works fine with fish, pork cutlets, French fries, or shellfish in my experience.

These little "toaster ovens" have the temperature about 40 degrees higher than what you set them at. It's not a problem unless you're not aware of it. Try setting the temp about 50 degrees lower and try that. It should make an improvement. My preference for baking is a lower temp and let it simmer a bit longer. Meats are always better that way. If you like French fries, try baking them at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. They come out hot and soft, not burned and hard....

I've made muffins at 400* and they turned out fine. I imagine 425-450 would work as well.

Yes! I cooked in the oven @ 350 degrees. Oven safe up to 400 degrees. I love this pot! My favorite thing to cook in since I got it. Great value for the price.

I don't think so. Are you sure that your oven heats up to the temperature that you want? Many ovens are over/under by 25 or more degrees, compared to the settings chosen. Check online for ways to determine the accuracy of your oven.

I don't use my silicon mats over 375 F. The temp listed on the box seems unusually high. How accurate do you think your oven is? Have you ever tested it with an oven thermometer? Also ovens have hotter spots when the heat is on. So 425 is pushing it for a listed temp of 428, especially on a product made in China.

I only used it at 400 degrees, I believe they said 450, it was an excellent pan for muffins, breakfast muffins etc.

I think amazon must of goofed on saying it was only oven safe to 400. I have had my pan for quite a while and I bake my pizza's at 450 and have never had a problem.

I have used in my oven at 350 degrees. Can't imagine that it would be a problem higher. After all it is stainless steel.

I am imagining that you could go 500⁰F as well. I bake mine at 475⁰ without a problem. I recommend this pan, and also the Chicago Metallic Commercial II Non-Stick Perforated Baguette Pan for thinner loaves. Chicago Metallic Commercial II Non-Stick Perforated Baguette Pan
