1/3 Size 4" Deep, Perforated Steam Pan, Pan Perforated, Anti-Jam Perforated Stainless Steel Steam Table Pan, Hotel Pan for Food Warmer Canteen Restaurant Kitchen

This pan would be used for steaming or potentially hot holding food in a commercial kitchen.For home use it's also usable as a colander or the like as well, but it's not a great shape for that. A better use would be to store fruits and veggies that will rot if left in standing water.It can also be used in an air fryer or the like, in a pinch.I would call it light to medium duty. Compared to something from Winco or the like it's definitely lighter.My one issue with this pan is that, (probably because the metal is so thin) they rolled the edges over to make the lip feel thicker and less likely to cut you. However, that rolled edge could provide a place for bacteria and other contaminants to hide if you aren't careful. Not really an issue if you use this for cooking or hot holding, but it could be a real problem for cold holding/food storage.

I am happy with my order of this perforated 1/3 size pan. It came very well packaged to prevent dents during shipping. It is made with a high quality stainless steel, with no sharp edges. This can also be used in a regular 1/3 size pan to keep foods at safe temperature. I can recommend this product.
