Calphalon Classic Nonstick 9-by-13-Inch Covered Cake Pan Review

Calphalon Classic Nonstick 9-by-13 inch Covered Cake Pan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased 2 of these cake pans about 20(!) years ago from a local store. The fact that I still have them after 20 years tells you how well these pans are made.

I recently noticed that these pan now include a plastic cover which they did not have when originally purchased. I contacted Calphalon's customer service to inquire if I can purchase these covers separately. You can imagine my surprise and delight when Calphalon asked me for my address and sent me two covers completely free.It is hard to grasp in this time and age such exceptional customer service.

High quality and exceptional customer service, what a winning combination.

Calphalon Contemporary Stainless Fondue Set 5-c. Review

Average Reviews:

Bought this fondue pot from Linens n' Things a while back as they were going out of business. Uses a sterno for the heat source, so that gives off a bit of a smell if your face is right over the pot. Other than that it's fantastic. It heats up evenly and pretty quickly. You haven't lived until you've had chocolate and cheese fondue.

Calphalon Katana 5-Inch Nakiri Knife Review

Calphalon Katana 5 inch Nakiri Knife
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I found this knife while browsing on the Amazon site. I have yet to see any reference to a 5" Katana nakiri knife on the Calphalon site. This is maybe my sixth Katana knife, and I really love each of them. I have not had any of the rusting problems mentioned in several reviews. The knives out of the box are the sharpest I have seen. I really like the balance and the wide tapered bolster, which helps remind the user to grip these knives properly. I generally clean my knives fairly shortly after use, but it seems that is the best way to care for good cookware and cutlery. The size and balance of this smaller nakiri is excellent, and it is a great vegetable mini-cleaver. The nakiri lends itself to a slightly forward stroke when slicing and chopping, and it works fine. The price is way out of line on the low side compared with other Katana knives. I have been buying and using them on a piecemeal basis, and I really like each knife I have bought with the exception of the serrated slicing knife. For some reason, it seemed to shred delicate items rather than saw cleanly. I returned it. The first one I got was the 6" chef's knife, and it has been one of the best short chef knives I have ever used. It has maintained its very sharp edge for well over a year, and, again, not a hint of rust problems. Other than the serrated knife, I would recommend any of those I have bought and used, including the 8" chef knife, the 3.5" paring knife, the 9" bread knife, and the 5.5 inch honesuki.

Calphalon D1382PB Commercial Hard-Anodized 12-Inch Everyday Pan with Lid Review

Calphalon D1382PB Commercial Hard-Anodized 12 inch Everyday Pan with Lid
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've owned this pan for about two years ... it's simply wonderful. The Calphalon Commercial line is the top of the line, just like the Professional, but with stay-cool handles. The thick, sturdy aluminum heats up quickly and evenly, and goes from the stovetop to the oven up to any temperature.
My favorite dish to make with this pan is a large omelette for two to four people. You saute the onions, etc., until carmelized, then add the whipped eggs, top it with diced tomatoes, basil, oregano and cheeses, then broil at about 450 for a couple minutes until browned. Simply wonderful!
I also cook stir frys, poach fish, bake casseroles, and brown meats in this truly Everyday Pan.
Now, for the issues: As with all true Calphalon products, you can not put hard-anodized aluminum into the dishwasher. It will damage the surface, leading to pits and discolorations, and void the lifetime warranty to boot!
Second, this is not a nonstick pan. If you want nonstick, buy Calphalon Commercial Nonstick, the best ever made (The Commercial nonstick line has the more advanced LRS3 coating versus the much less effective LRS coating on the cheaper Professional Nonstick II line).
To clean, simply buy a Dobie pad or its equivalent. For the tough stuff, I find a little Bon Ami or Dormond cleaner does the trick without too much effort.
Enjoy!

The 12-in. Everyday Pan is an all-purpose pan. Use it for searing, browning and sauteing vegetables and meats.

8Qt Carbon Steel Pasta Cooker / Steamer Set Review

8Qt Carbon Steel Pasta Cooker / Steamer Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This thing is great for all foods that have to be drained after cooking.Also works well for pasta that has to be (or needs to be) rinsed in hot or cold water.The boiling pattern is much better than a regular pot with the rolling action coming from the sides instead of up through the middle. Three things I don't like...1) The handles get friggin' HOT if your heat source is not fully contained under the pot. 2) The capacity is smaller that I hoped for.The inner pot sits about 2 inches off the bottom of the pot itself, reducing capacity.Twenty-four ounces of spagetti will fill it up after cooking. 3) A bit slow to come to boil on a gas cooktop, even starting with hot tap water to begin with.Agonizingly slow if you start with cool water.The steamer insert works well, also.Non stick, a breeze to clean. I feel this is a good value for the money and would recommend it to a friend if need be.

I always just used the flimsy cheap 5" knives that were given to us prior to this purchase.This was my first "nice" piece of cutlery.The difference is amazing.Chopping vegetables takes half the time that it used to with the cheaper knives.I particularly like the heavier feel of the santoku over other specialty knives I have used in the past.If you are looking for a general purpose knife to handle your daily chopping needs, I would highly recommend purchasing this.

Calphalon Tri Ply Stainless Steel Tapas Pans, Set of 2 Review

Calphalon Tri Ply Stainless Steel Tapas Pans, Set of 2
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Very good quality pans. I like the handles and you can hang the pans from a pot rack. I use these pans multiple times a week, mainly to make eggs "sur la plat" for breakfast or a light meal.Heat pan on the stove top, add butter or oil and (optionally) saute a small amount of onions, peppers or a few spoonfuls of almost any leftovers.Add 1-3 eggs (crack the eggs into a small dish first if you want to be extra careful not to get broken yolks or pieces of shell), and salt, and cook without stirring until whites are beginning to set.Finish by (optionally) topping with a little cheese and then broiling or toasting in a toaster oven until done. This is super easy, easier to do than to describe! Remove from heat and eat right from the pan.Remember the pan is hot, you might need to set it on a potholder at the table. I'm sure these pans would be good for all sorts of single serving dishes, including tapas of course.

Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 10- and 12-Inch Omelet Pans, Set of 2 Review

Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 10- and 12 inch Omelet Pans, Set of 2
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased a two pack of the 8 and 10" skillets from Macy's this past summer. All my pans work great. I find they are a bit like cast iron.Once they heat up (on medium), they retain their heat and cook evenly. I use medium heat, and can often get by with med-low. No warping or flaking yet. (The key is to not use any more heat than necessary - excessive high heat can ruin most skillets) I also got a griddle which is the Calphalon One Infused Anodized - their top line. I love it as well, and would purchase either again.I went mostly with the Contemporary line due to lower price. Be sure to read the packaging to see what line you are getting, as they have several lines out there.There is the 'infused anodized' and the 'hard anodized', nonstick and without the nonstick, etc.
Check out their website for more information.

I purchased this set after my family moved to our new home (real reason- my wife threw out all the old pots and pans so I had to buy new ones!). I didn't want to splurge on the top of the line Calphalon One series because I didn't have any experience with Calphalon products. So I went with this mid-level reasonably priced set. I am so glad I did. This set is wonderful. The pans cook and heat even. Clean-up is a breeze. My wife loves them...NO SCRUBBING! Just place them in some hot soapy water and a regular dish towel and wipe. Everything just comes right off. The silicone handles stay cool and are removable for extra cleaning (if needed). We now own just about every pot and pan in this line and some from the other more pricey lines. Spend the extra 50 to 100 bucks on the Pro Series if you're going to purchase from Target. Better yet...go to the nearest Target and hold them in your hands, you will be able to tell the difference.
Just remember not to use metal utensils when cooking or serving or do what I did. Throw them all out and replace them with them with the Kitchen Essentials® from Calphalon® 8-pc. Utensil Set with Crock - Gray. You won't regret it. FYI...this set seems to be the same set better known as Calphalon Everyday Nonstick 10-Piece Set that's sold in other stores. The only differences are the lids, what's printed on the grips and what pans come in the set.
Makes a great wedding gift too.

I have used this cookware for several years. I have enjoyed the even-heating characteristics of the heavy anodized aluminum, the ease of non-stick cooking and have always been careful to use nylon or wooden cooking utensils with it.Despite my care and Calphalon's reputation for quality, the non-stick coating has partially flaked off the bottoms of nearly every piece.I can't understand why one should spend so much on cookware that will last only a few years.I have replaced it with Cuisinart's Multiclad Pro Stainless...yes, it's expensive too, but without a coating that will someday end up in your meal.I can not recommend non-stick coated/infused cookware of any brand or technology.

I bought this caddy, not to hold utensils, but to hold flatware waiting to go in the dishwasher (was tired of flatware dropping into the disposal). I needed something that could get wet and not rust, and that would hold up well to a family with three young boys. This utensil "and more" caddy has done the trick, and looks great doin' it! (PS: It is obviously meant to be a utensil caddy, hence the name, and not a flatware caddy, as I use it ... so if you purchase it for use as a flatware caddy, you might be surprised at the larger size, but it was just what I was looking for!)
