My ancient Sharp smart & easy convection oven has a metal tray and the silicone mat slides on it. Is there some way I can get it to stay in place?

This mat is for use with a microwave not sure if it can even be used in a convection oven.

Place a few drops of water between the mat and the metal tray. Rub the mat back and forth on the mat to create a seal. It should stay in place for you.

This silicone mar can be used inside a convection oven up to 460 degrees F. Also makes a great hot plate trivet to protect your countertop or dining table. So many versitile uses.enjoy your silicone mats!

Sorry, I have not tried that. I usually just put down an oven mitt and place the dish from the oven on the mitt until it have cooled a little. I have formica - like countertops, so I don't like to put a such a hotdish directly on the countertop.

Mine just lays on the bottom rack bc I'm preggers and can't get down to clean the oven ;) but I LOVE it, and have gotten my mom one too. If food bubbles over, you just wait for the oven to cool and pull it ou and the burnt debis just wipes off.

Interesting idea! It is just that the batter on the inside square Of the tray stayed kind of raw... I would try just putting it around the edges, but to be honest, I would just do your idea in a muffin tray. By the time you pry it out it doesn't look like a circle anyway... Good luck!

I think it does move around. I still own it but it's starting to split. However, you may use the tip people use with mixers bowls. Try seeing if laying down a slightly damp dish towel under the board and see if this stops it from sliding while you are working.

Take a magnet to the bottom if it adheres you can use it. Any cookware will work the same way.

Mine is on a laminate surface and it holds well without any movement. I have a set of 3 cutting boards, set of cookie sheets, 2 muffin pans and room to spare. The weight of whatever you're putting on the rack will also help it stay in place but it's pretty solid to begin with.

It slides out when the tray is in the lower position, like in the picture. The manufacturer recommends using the top position when cooking pizza, however, and at that setting, the tray does not slide out.

My oven is not convection, but the heating element is on the bottom, tho not hidden. I simply lifted up the element, and put the liner on the bottom and have used the oven repeatedly and the liner is fine. Sorry I could not be of more help. Maybe you could contact customer service of your oven manufacturer and see what they recommend.

Try it. If it slips, take a clean cotton or linen dish towel and maybe dampen it slightly on your granite surface under the Dexas plastic rectangle.

Mine is not a tight fit. It sounds like a flaw in the construction of the oven. I would get hold of Hamilton Beach customer service to report the problem and see what they want to do about it.

I understand what you mean. No, the rack does not slide out when you open the door. However, this oven comes with multiple racks and a hand tool to pull out the hot rack when you want to.

Yes, it is magnetic, so if you have a stainless steel oven, it won't stick, but you can always put it on the counter, in that case.

I'm not sure what you problem might be. I have a convection oven and place my silicone mats on top of my double-layered cookie sheet. The only adjustment I've had to make is to cook the cookies 3-4 min longer than normal. My daughter has a standard oven and hasn't reported any problem with hers. I know that with my old oven I had to buy a thermometer for inside as the electrical power in our neighborhood fluctuated terribly...sometimes 175 degrees hotter and sometimes almost that amount under...

As others have said, the answer is definitely "no"as the mat is plastic - not silicone. It does roll up, as others have stated, but I strongly prefer to store it flat. It makes it easier to use the next time as it has a memory when rolled. I started storing it behind a solid, case good piece of furniture: ie console or sideboard. That worked fine until someone suggested I put it on the dining room table under the pads and table cloth. If you happen to leave those in place, it is definitely the best option for me for this item. Storing flat also makes it so I have absolutely no problem with slipping. As it is large, I do have to tuck it under a few things on the counter just to fit it in place. That may be why I've never had any slipping issues. As I told another person who asked a question, I actually purchased this because it was so inexpensive compared to the $30 range for the silicone mats. It also has all the nice markings/measurements. I didn't intend to like it so even before I bought it, I had given myself the permission to just consider the price a loss and buy the silicone WHEN I disliked this mat. Then I got a big shock. I LOVE this mat!! I have a small, silicone mat that I've had for years so I do have some idea of the differences. Though I wouldn't use a sharpened knife on this mat, it if definitely much sturdier than silicone and therefore you can your a much larger number of gadgets without the fear of damaging the mat - especially since it is so much cheaper than the silicone. The absolute only pro I can come up with for the silicone is that it can be folded or balled up and wrapped with a rubber band to save space. This mat has a much longer list of pros for me anyway. I know that is much more than you asked, but I can't help running off at the mouth about this mat as I was so very shocked that I really love it. I can't imagine needing to purchase another mat, but if I did, I would definitely, without question get this mat again! Hope that helps.

I have cut silicone baking mats before with no issues. A simple pair of scissors will do the trick, but I use a straight-edge with a razor for a professional look.

Just for fun, I unloaded my dish drainer and tried the silicone mat under a small wood cutting board to cut a tomato. I don't usually have a big problem with sliding cutting boards, but with the mat laying flat side down on a formica counter the wood cutting board slipped around about half as much. The mat is not all that sticky but it might help on a very slick surface. The good part is the mat can be tossed onto the top rack of the dishwasher to be sterilized.
