I am confused by some of the reviews here... this is the best pan of it's kind I've used. I used it for the first time yesterday to bake cupcakes for a party. The recipe made 18 cupcakes, so I had to use my old pan for the extra 6 that did not fit into this pan. The difference in the results was unbelievable, so much so that I am throwing away my other pan and getting another of these. I will post pictures soon. The old darker, nonstick pan baked cupcakes that were overly browned, and had uneven tops. This pan baked PERFECT cupcakes, that were completely evenly cooked, and had perfectly flat tops. The difference was so striking that I made my boyfriend break from his work to wonder at the amazing difference a pan could make. I'm fussy about finding the best recipes and following them exactly (I use an oven thermometer, too, to make sure the temp is correct), and I feel like I've been robbed of the better cupcakes that I could have been making in the past, had I had this pan.
Things that I read in other reviews that I'll address:
- Some complained of uneven baking, but mine baked remarkably perfectly. I have a convection oven, use an in-oven thermometer to make sure the temp is right, and weigh the batter in each liner to make sure they are all the same.
- Some complained that muffin liners did not fit in this pan--the ones I use fit exactly. I use the "If You Care" brand.
- Some complained of having a hard time handling the pans to turn them, etc., I assume because they are more compact and don't really have anywhere to hold onto that's not filled with goodies. This was the only valid point I came across, I had a hard time at first because I was used to a pan with wings. But I ended up just basically using my oven-mitted hands as shelves and lifted the pan instead of grabbing it. I like that it is so compact, so that I can fit two on one rack, and so that it's easier to store and transport.
- Scratches, quality, etc. -- This thing is solid, mine came in fine condition, it was easy to clean, I love that it's not nonstick, and I expect it to last forever.
- The top does not leave a generous amount of room between plastic and cupcake, so my frosting got a little smushed, but curiously looked fine after I removed the top. My cupcakes were completely flat, and I am not an elaborate decorator, so the lid will definitely not accommodate hugely domed goodies or tall piles of frosting. Not a problem for me, and may help me cut down on the frosting portions a bit ;)

Use and Care for Natural Aluminum
• Before initial use and after subsequent uses, hand wash with warm, soapy water.
• Dishwasher use is not advised as discoloration will occur due to the cleaning agents used in automatic dishwasher detergent. This discoloration is merely cosmetic and will not affect baking properties or safety of the pan.
• Natural aluminum pans work well with parchment paper, silicone baking mats, and also traditional butter or shortening and flour methods. When roasting savory foods such as vegetables, butter or cooking oil work well.
• Nylon, wood, or silicone utensils are recommended. Metal utensils and scouring pads may scratch natural aluminum pans, but will not affect baking performance
• Aluminum is reactive to acidic ingredients such as vinegar and tomato products. These foods may darken, pit or corrode the pan after prolonged use.

Nice pan but smaller than standard
The photo shows my old muffin tin on the left, and the Nordic Ware muffin tin on the right. As you can see, it is shorter than the standard muffin paper liner size, but appears to be the same diameter. I am curious to see if it will impact baking or not if using a liner, but I like that it doesn't contain any toxic nonstick chemicals and doesn't have any nooks and crannies where overflow batter can get stuck.
