Perforated Baking Sheet

Hi everyone. I am considering buying a perforated baking sheet such as this:

Does anyone have experience using these types of sheet pans? What are your impressions and do they do a good job? Comments would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I think that perforated pans are also what is recommended when using a Silpain mat. These are similar to Silpat mats, and by the same company, but have a higher temperature maximum (550 F), which is needed for bread.

I don't have a Silpain mat, but it's on my wish list. Baking parchment doesn't like the high temperatures.
