Made my cheesecake look professional
By L. Kiddy on Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2020
When I got my Instant Pot, one of the first things I wanted to make was a cheesecake. I had originally bought an accessory kit here on Amazon but the spring from pan that came with the kit was very thin and I knew it wouldn't be tall enough to make the cheesecake that I wanted. I searched around and saw this one and figured I would give it a try. I knew the pan was made of silicone but still I thought I might have made a mistake since it dawned on me after I pulled it from the box that the sides would not be stiff and I was concerned that it would not work that well. Since I was having a hard time finding a spring from pan that was tall enough to make what I wanted - I decided to use it and see what happened. This thing worked flawlessly. Since I was making a cheesecake, I cut a circle in my wax paper and placed it in the bottom of the pan and then greased the sides of the pan. I then made the crust and filling and was pleased that it all fit into the pan. I used a lid from a different Instant Pot pan and it fit perfectly on top of this spring from pan (the lid not only prevented moisture from getting into the cake but it also helped keep the silicone sides in a circle shape). I had to be careful when I put the pan into the pot and removed it from the pot but the true magic was when I went to get the cake out of the pan. I just peeled the sides right off the cake and it left a beautiful finish. Even though the glass bottom was made to act as a serving plate, I went ahead and removed mine (which is why I used the wax paper) and it slid right off. I attached a picture of the cheesecake I made with this pan. I read several reviews that mentioned the closure area would leak because it wouldn't close all the way. I haven't had this problem. I wash this in the dishwasher and as soon as the dishwasher is finished, I will pull out the glass base, the silicone sides, and the closure and use a paper towel to remove any water left on the items and while the pieces are still warm, I will put it together. It goes back together easily and has no gaps. Maybe because I put it back together while the pan is fresh from the dishwasher? I have made several cheesecakes with this pan and it has delivered for me what I wanted. This was a great purchase for me.

Nah

I was excited about this, but it’s annoying and hard to use. The sides flop around a lot and the plastic clip comes off to easily. Not very good quality
