Are the loafs from this tray made in the horizontal or vertical position? I'm assuming vertical. Update: Received an email from West Bend Customer Service regarding the question above and here is their reply: Thank you for your email regarding the...

The answer is vertical. Unfortunately when I used it yesterday only one of the trays mixed. The other never kneaded. Where are the instructions for this double tray?

The 3 drawer panel is too short to raise bread and too short for a quart of yogurt. So far, they have refused to make me a 4 tray cover. I hope they will change their minds and make me one because I have to drape a towel over the front of the unit to use it for bread or yogurt right now.

Unfortunately not and can't say that I have ever seen one that is straight. Perhaps it is made like this in order for what you are baking to rise properly.

No, they're pretty much square or vertical, depending on how much your bread rises.

This picture isn't what I purchased. The one I have is an elongated octagon which does not fit in most of the pans I purchased (which included their own rectangular racks). Got out my tape measure and it looks like my octagonal rack is 3/8 inch from top to bottom. BTW I purchased this rack to use upside down when making toast; it allows me to slide the toast in and out of the toaster oven. I also use it for small frozen pizza.

HI, To answer your question: I found this pan a little disconcerting because the buns turn out a little odd. Round on top but square cut on the sides. I also found that you have to be careful about how much bread dough you put into the pan. If you make your own bread dough. Have not tried box mixes (yet). Otherwise, you end up with very large buns. I also think I have to indent the top of the buns. Oh, the answer to your question, 10 buns. I'm still working on making the perfect hot dog bun as of this writing. I'm sure once I get the hang of making the buns, everything will be ok. Nice pan and easy clean up."PAM" helps a lot. :-) I learned a lot from the other comments. Must try their suggestions.

It is vertical and 1 paddle. So far my loaves have come out ok. A little dense, but ok. If you had a Zorjirushi, I do not think you will like this

I used a double loaf recipe and it came out ok.... If you want it taller try putting 3 loaf recipe

sorry, but I don't understand your question. I love the trays and I use them when we do family fondue. They work great, stay nice and solid to handle a lot of food and wash up very well. They also store easily on top of my fridge, where they are flat enough to be hidden there.

not sure what you mean sideways? We use them at trade shows - turning them on their side so the opening is facing us. We put 2 side by side and then 2 more on top of each one and make a "counter table". That said, we do use zip ties to make it sturdier.

The slots are at the point of where the album is held together but it does not matter whether they are vertical or horizontal. I put both in and you just turn the album for baby.

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!

The two halves do not lock! They simply slide together and are sort of like an accordian. As it will sit on your countertop or in a cupboard, I don't see a need for a lock. I will store up to 1.5 loafs in the bread keeper without any problem. Enjoy . . . Bruce

Most definitely vertical. I use it all the time, and have no problem with the kneading or the final loaves. You will have better bread if you use the 1 1/2 pound recipes. Good luck!!

The slots appear to be standard. Rye bread will likely stick above the top.

They don't stand upright in the oven or on the counter. You have to make sure you mix the bread just right (or use frozen) it raises to fill the whole mold.

Wow, You've got legs that aren't straight and sturdy huh? Mine are very sturdy and very straight. The griddle is also perfectly level which I was not expecting. Do you have the lower tray put in correctly?
