Matfer baking mat
I love the baking mats. I would love more, but the person selling only had three and I gave two to my daughter. Definitely recommend the product and seller.

Why does my smoke alarm keep going off?
I just moved into a new apartment, and bought this for all my baking needs. It was great at first! Stuff really won't stick to this guy. It was a little difficult to get the brown spots that... some common ingredient in baked goods... causes off, but in general I was happy.

But every time I baked, even when nothing burned, my smoke detector would go off! At first, it was obvious to me that it was the electric oven; it was just too hot and I was used to gas.

But that didn't seem right. Everyone else can bake with an electric oven and keep the smoke alarm from going off! ...It must be the baking mat. Sure enough, it was. The next time I baked frozen Pilsbury cinnamon rolls (which sent the smoke detector into a high-pitched rage last time) with nothing but aluminum foil on my cookie sheet, everything was fine. Needless to say, I am disappointed.

Matfer Exopat
The Matfer Exopat is great. Less expensive than some similar mats and it works great. Would buy again if needed. Hopefully I won't have too, unless I give it for gifts.
