 good stuffSep 09, 2003
Love the glass covers and how they sit in the pans. And finally, a little bit of curves in hard anodized cookware. They heat quickly and clean in a snap. The handle stays completely cool during cooking as well. I'm extremely satisfied.

 Be cautious when purchasingJan 13, 2006
By Jason Klein
I had received this set for my Birthday from a friend. When we unpacked the set we noticed the 8 Quart pot was scratched on the interior. This made the non-stick aspect of the pot worthless. I gave the pots back to my friend and he returned them to Amazon and had a new set sent out. When we received the new set the 8 quart pot again had scratches inside the pot. I thought I would contact Calphalon to inquire about the damage and see what they had to say. I called the Calphalon customer service number but was on hold for so long I gave up. In retrospect I would spend the extra money and stay away from the non-stick surfaces with teflon coating which are prone to scratch easily. If you get the Calphalon One Infused-Anodized pans which you will never have to replace let alone deal with the lack of customer service. Remember the old saying "you get what you pay for." I don't think these non-stick pans will look very good after a years worth of use. If you do choose to buy these pans examine them when you open the box for damage.

 Incredible Cookware!!!Sep 09, 2003
Finally, a cookware line that adds style to functionality! I finally do not have to hide my cookware in the cupboard because it looks so great. The nonstick is fantastic and the shape of the pan offers the most versatility for anything I'm cooking. Thanks Calphalon.

Received on time, however when I opened the box and unwrapped each pot, I noticed that the large 8 quart soup pot lid had a small dent on the metal rim and the smaller of the two fry pans had scratches on the exterior. The handles do get hot when cooking. I have handled, stored and hand washed these pots per Calphalons instructions and they still scratch easily. Also after cooking in the 8 gt soup pot just twice using wood utensils, I found a scratch in the nonstick coating - not impressed at all.
Good cookware, needs a little tlcJan 20, 2011
By Marketing Maven
My husband I received this cookware as a wedding gift in 2004 and used it for years with no problems. But after about 5 years of steady and proper use they started to go south quickly. Even with hand washing and proper care the teflon started coming off. The bottoms of the pans are discolored (now whitish grey). I know they are probably still under the Calphalon warranty, but I will be replacing them with the stainless primarily because of the health issues surrounding non-stick, but also because I want to upgrade my set a bit. With hand washing they occasionally retain the smells of the food that was last in the pan, particularly tomato based items such as tomato sauces. It was a pricey set and I expected it to last longer than it did, but it was good while it lasted.
