My tart pan arrived with little sticky pads between the removable bottom and the frame. Am I supposed to take those off or leave them on??

Take them off because you don't want a leaky pan. Actually, mine didn't come packed this way.......but remove. Happy baking!

Mine did as well, remove them, they are just for packing purposes. The bottom of the pan is removable for serving/presentation purposes.

I also received mine and I had the same problem, unable to remove the pan. I need to wash it before I start use it.

If food is stuck on you can put water in the pan and reheat it. Another way to keep food from sticking is to heat the pan before you add oil. I like to scour the pans with Cameo Stainless Steel cleaner. They will look new if you use Cameo, Barkeepers Friend doesn't work as well but is better than nothing. If you remove the oxidation each time food doesn't stick as much.

Take the bottom stand off. I believe they're there or in the back of the unit.

I caught mine in time to peel it off. Maybe reheat it and try to get it off. Good Luck.

Put the pan on the counter. Pour a glass of water in the pan so the bottom of the pan and the label are completely covered. Let soak for a few hours. It will slide right off. No goo or residue left at all. I left mine sitting for six hours, because I got busy and forgot about it. Perhaps an hour or two would be sufficient, not sure.

I peeled it off, I think it was part of packaging. Although I cann't see any harm leaving it on.

They should just come out with out using spatula. Mine jat come out when I turn the pan over.

Generally - Put yeast around pan away from kneeding arm first, other dry ingredients next, then moist ingredients. there may be exceptions so follow your recipe instructions

You need to use a soft cloth or soft brush (Oxo has one designed for Teflon pans). Stack them with paper towel in between or better yet don't stack them at all. I've had mine a year, no scratches and easily the best set we've ever had. Just treat them nicely and they will last. Only wish the mid size pot was a little bit bigger, but overall a great buy.

I would use a nylon spatula and sponge with a little soap and gently rub it out. Clean it after each use carefully as mentioned after turning it off for about ten mins.

Yes, the bottom comes off for easy cleaning. They are a little tight when brand new .

I suggest you not overheat them or scrub them with very rough material. If you do not do the first you should not need to do the second. These are my favorites and no problems. I read the other reviews then went back to check all my pans. No smell and one slight stain which I cleaned. I'm a Happy Cooker.

Depending on what you are baking...after I remove them from the pan, I still run a knife around bottom plates also.

They are sticky! Other things had gotten "sticky" around here and I'd not gotten that far. One of my favorite ways to remove that kind of thing is spray on Pam or your equivalent. You might that a try or soak it in hot water for a while.

No. I also haven't needed sticky on the pads. They seem to stay in place very well. I have been very satisfied with them.

I did for several months but when I went to remove it to wipe it off I found it stuck to the bottom of the oven. Took awhile to get it off the oven bottom. I will probably be using foil unless I find something else.
