Food Good large cookie sheet?

I recently read in Cooking Light that you should get heavy, shiny cookie sheets, not nonstick. I don't recall why they said shiny is better.
No recs on brands - I have Calphalon non-stick cookie sheets, which are apparently all wrong.

That's SOOOO bizarre. The entire point of them is that they should PREVENT burning. Have you tried reducing the heat? I know for me I bake at 300 instead os 350 on my stones for cookies. Otherwise try lining the stone with parchment paper?
Ours are several years old and def. seasoned. I guess my complaint is that they seem to overcook cookies, but I love how they heat everything else. Maybe if I tried others I would truly appreciate PC. I guess I just wish they made fluffier, nonburnt cookies
Please update with your results. I used to sell pampered chef (years and years ago) and while many items I don't love or even like I have never heard any complaints about stones other than they are too heavy. Which they are!
I have two of these, my stepmom used to be a catering chef and she has like 10, she swears by them and recommended them to me: http://www.culinarydistrict.com/Products/Pans-Baskets/Sheet-Pan-1-2-Sheet-13-x-18
They are cheap, durable, thick, have nice easy to hold edges (good when you're wearing oven mitts!), come clean really well, and cook evenly. I always line with parchment paper and have no problems with sticking.

Its not cheap _ though you can reuse it a few times! Yes, you can buy it at any grocery store where the saran and foil are. Though I have about 8 boxes left from when I used to sell the stuff. (I sold it just long enough to get my 3700.00 wish list for free and then as I slowly got out of the buisness I stocked up on a few little gifts for people, parchment paper etc)
Yes you can! It is expensive if you buy at the grocery store. I like to go to my local professional chef supply store. They sell 100-sheet packages that are pre-cut to fit baking sheets, for about $12 which is an amazing value compared to the grocery store, and more convenient too!
