 "Loving them!!" 2009-04-03
By J. Watler (FL, USA)
I purchased my Calphalon Contemporary set about a month ago, and I'm very impressed. So far, NOTHING seems to stick to these pans! I've even accidentally burned a few dishes (they require less heat that I'm used to), and not even the burned portions stuck to the pans. Clean-up is a breeze. The Teflon is holding up very well, and has proven to be resistant to scratches. The set is very attractive and the feel of it is great - not too heavy, not too light. Being able to go from stove top to oven, is also a great plus. I also purchased the "grill" pan, and I'm very happy with it as well. I'd recommend this set without reservations.

 "These pans do not last!" 2009-02-16
By Chrissy B (CT, USA)
I registered for the Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 10pc set (plus an extra dutch oven in this line) for my wedding 2 1/2 years ago. It was a pricey set--the kind that I wouldn't buy for myself, but registered for, hoping that it would be a durable set that would last my husband and I a long time.



Well, within a year, the two frying pans began to peel their Teflon coating. Now, 2 1/2 years later, 4 out of 6 of the pans I got are shedding their Teflon. I was responsible with them--NEVER put them in the dishwasher, and ONLY used nylon/silicone tools to cook with or clean them.



When I contacted Calphalon, they would "consider" replacing them if I paid to ship the affected pans to them. Even then, I wouldn't get a refund or be able to exchange them for a stainless steel pan in their line, but a replacement of the same pans. We decided to just go out and buy a stainless steel set. We didn't feel like paying a fortune to ship them our pans, just to recieve the same ones in return.



Pros:

Great look, easy to clean.



Cons:

A $450+ set with a Teflon coating that only lasts 1-2 years, regardless of how well you take care of them.

 "Makes cooking enjoyable!" 2008-11-14
By Lorraine Chidester
I bought this set of cookware a couple years ago and haven't regret it yet. The pans are all holding up well. Yes, wear comes with use, but the quality is certainly revealed. These pans clean up EASY, no scrubbing needed. There are some minor stirring marks, but the material has not peeled or chipped. I highly recommend these pans, they make a great mid-line product.

 "They don't last!" 2008-08-13
By Disappointed Cook (Denver, CO)
I bought this set when my husband and I were married four years ago. I love to cook and bake, and thought these pans were great in the beginning. Four years and $400 later, I am very disappointed. The nonstick coating in every pan is peeling off. Let me be clear: These pans have NEVER seen the dishwasher, metal utensils, or anything but loving care. We thought we were investing in pans we'd have for a long time. Not so. Now, we wish we would've just gotten the stainless All-Clad instead. These were cheaper in the beginning, but they're costing us in the long run. If you're registering for your wedding gifts, DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE WE DID. Use caution when purchasing any nonstick pans; they'll all fail over time, and you'll just have to keep buying new pans when the coating peels. Learn from my mistake and save yourself the trouble. Skip these pans!

 "Really nice to cook with" 2008-05-04
By JRC (CA)
Food cooks better, more evenly than the cheap Tfal I had. No sticking problems. Would like a smaller pan in the set. Easy to clean the interior with the Dobie pad. More trouble to keep the exterior clean. The large sauce pan came with a scratch on the rim and I am considering exchanging it. Love the clear glass tops. Handles do get hot. Pots are heavy and have aggravated my tennis elbow.
