In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

Look for a springform pan that is light gray or white. Avoid pans that are dark gray or black, as the dark color can cause your baked goods to overcook in the oven.  If you do decide to use a dark-colored springform pan, you will need to get in the habit of knocking a few minutes off the recommended baking time to avoid burning or browning your baked goods. You can find springform pans at your local baking supply store or online. Check the label on the pan to confirm it has a non-stick finish, as this will make removing your baked goods from the pan easier. Most springform pans will have a non-stick coating. You can buy a springform pan in a variety of sizes, from 8 inches (20 cm) to 9 inches (23 cm) to 12 inches (30 cm). Most recipes for cakes and pies call for a 9 inch (22.9 cm) pan, but you can pick a size based on your needs. Some stores sell springform pans in sets of three, ranging from 8 inches (20 cm) to 12 inches (30 cm) pans. Before you buy the springform pan, try opening and closing the spring lock a few times. Pull the spring on the round part of the pan open and then close it to confirm it works properly. You should hear a snapping sound when the spring locks. Only buy a springform pan that has a working lock.

Summary:
Get a light-colored pan. Find a pan with a non-stick finish. Choose a pan based on size. Check that the spring locks properly.
