Product Description
If you love to bake but are disheartened by cookies and pastries that burn and stick, you'll certainly appreciate this flexible, non-stick Exopat Baking Mat, often referred to as Silpat. Made in France, the mat promotes even browning without burning, and easy removal from the pan without sticking. To use, simply place the mat on your baking sheet ??? no greasing required. Place your cookies or pastries on top of the mat and bake in the oven as you normally would. After baking, simply remove the mat, shake it clean and store it away until next time. The mat is freezer safe and can withstand oven temperatures up to 580 degrees. Use it over and over - it's guaranteed to last up to 3,000 bakings.

Made of slippery silicone, the Exopat baking mat prevents cookies and pastries from sticking, eliminating the need for parchment paper, nonstick cooking surfaces, and the greasing of baking sheets. It measures 16-1/2 by 11-5/8 inches, wipes clean with a sponge, is heat- safe to 580 degrees F, can be used 2,000 to 3,000 times, and is an essential tool for an avid baker. --Fred Brack

 Really nice product December 23, 2008

I got this baking mat for my birthday from my wish list and I love it! I have been using it almost daily and it works very well. I used to have rolls burnt on the bottom and raw on top, but since I started using this mat they were evenly brown. I throw it in the dishwasher every now and then to clean it, but it doesn't get very dirty and nothing sticks to it. A wonderful nifty thing no one should be missing in his/her kitchen!
Great for baking cookies December 16, 2008

This is perfect for baking cookies. They don't stick and the Matfer keeps the bottom of the cookies the same color and doneness as the top of the cookies. It is hard to go wrong with these.
 Wish it was Dishwasher Safe December 10, 2008

Works great blah blah blah (refer to the other 200 some reviews); wish it dishwasher safe though. Although it may be because it can go through high temps in the oven, I didn't try it because the package says hand wash with soap. Believe me I was tempted to throw it into the dishwash a few times--but decided not to. It keeps baked goodies from sticking and does what it's supposed to do.
Exopat vs. Silpat December 4, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought one each of these brands back in 2005. I prefer the Exopat only because I like the color better. It's possible that product quality has changed in the last two years, but I haven't experienced any of the problems others have noted with either sheet. The Silpat has some round, cookie sized stains on it, but I don't really recall how that happened. Perhaps if I had used the Exopat for that particular batch, it would have the stains. Both mats have performed flawlessly for hundreds of uses.
Some have complained that they can't get the oil residue off the mats. That's not oil residue--that's just the nature of the material. They have an oily feel even when spotlessly clean.
Some have complained about smoke. I've never seen that problem.
Some people say the Silpat feels thicker. I'll agree that it does seem a little thicker. It makes no difference with respect to performance, but if a thicker feel means something to you, then go for it.
The complaints about size are correct for both products. These are made for true 1/2 size baking sheets, which you won't usually find at Walmart or places like that. You need to get some 1/2 size sheets to use these. (I bought mine at Sams.)
In brief, there is no difference in performance between these two brands. Both are amazing and exellent products IMHO. If color or heft are important to you, then pick accordingly. Otherwise, go with price.
 Works well, gets filthy November 30, 2008

Have used the Exopat since Christmas 2006. It does work well, helps baked goods (generally cookies, though we have made frozen pizzas and other things, too) cook evenly and slide off evenly. Actually, that's it's best part: even burned cookies slide right off. The problem is cleaning. Any oils in your baked goods will become semi-permanent on the sheets. It is indeed very hard to clean, though I don't see any degradation in performance even when it is dirty. It may be the California dustbuster/wrought iron skillet phenomenon: the dirtier it gets, the better it works. Other than the re-usable feature, I can't see a huge benefit to these pads over parchment/wax. And when it looks so filthy you don't want to eat off of it, that feature is less significant.
