Does this pan have straight sides or are they slightly bent outward. I need the long and shorrt sides to be straignt, not curved.

Viewed from the top, the ends are straight, the (long) sides are curved. Viewed for depth, the sides all slope slightly to the outside. The shape is ideal for BBQ side burners; it nestles in the recess perfectly, with the corners curved in just enough to allow the combustion gas to escape, extracting the heat.

There is a definite curve in the pan side as shown in the middle. It is not a true retangle shape if that's what you are needing. The sides are straight up and down but the pan itself is curved.

Hello, the sides are curved but, not tilted so it protects anything from falling off. Hope this helps. Debbie

Mine is curved as well, but I didn't start to notice it until a few weeks after purchase. I will flip it over for a day or two, and the curve becomes less pronounced. I do this once every few weeks.I should note that I have never soaked it, and I have followed all manufacturer's instructions to the letter.

Yes, the sides seem to be perfectly straight, and the top edge has a small rolled lip which is maybe about 1/4 inch. The pan is sturdy and doesn't have any "give" or bend to it. After you invert the baked cake layer, the top edges are "sort of" rounded, as compared to some cheaper pans which are usually squared off, so it doesn't seem to crumble quite as much when I put on the frosting. I love these.

Mine is oval with no flat side, really. They work great! So glad I got them, sick of the ladder! There is barely a gap, maybe an inch or two.

No, they are not rounded. They have a straight edge. Good pan, you will like them!

They are slightly angled. If you look very closely at the photo you can see how much by the lines in the pan (compare bottom lines to side lines). Though they may not be what you are looking for for this use, I LOVE these pans and have them in several shapes and sizes! They are WONDERFULLY made and heavy!

Hi Crys E... The pan is flat on the bottom & the pan is approximately 3½" deep... I love this pan... I use it at least twice a week & it looks almost new... If you follow the manufactures instructions that come with the pan... You won't have to worry about the pan warping...

Bottom is flat with slightly round edge. I luv this pan, nice and big, easy to clean and if you follow the instructions for the first few used should last long time.

Paula, was a bit hard, since the pan inside, curves up the sides but best as I could measure without worrying of scratching, it is 8 1/2 inches flat surface. On outside bottom pan it is 8 3/4 inches.

Not sure exactly what you mean, but the bottom of the pot is flat. It does have rolled edges at the side though. Hope this answers your question.

Hard to define "slope" but the sides are slightly curved .. not straight up ...

The pans I ordered were 18 gauge. I've been using them more than once a week for at least 5 years. They still are flat.

Yes, the sides are pretty well straight. I think you're thermometer would stand up straight without any problem.

Best cake pans I've bought. The sides are straight out and not tapered/rounded down. I would refer to the sides as helping with spilling over because they are straight out and not rounded as most cake pans are. With the sides being straight out it helps in placing them in and out of the oven or whatever you use them for. Hope this helps.

I don't own the straight pot, but even the graniteware mugs are completely flat on the bottom. I would assume that this pot is also very flat.

Mine is not bent at all. It lies flat and tight. It does sound like the one you received may be damaged. I hope this info is helpful. Good luck.

not sure what you mean by straight sided-it is a typical muffin pan. but excellent quality. I only buy Nordic Ware for baking.
