Amazon.com Review:
Update your kitchen with this handsome nine-piece cookware set from Calphalon. The charcoal-gray matte finish of the Commercial Hard-Anodized series not only looks sophisticated but is impressive in performance: it sears meats over medium heat, cooks evenly, and stays stick-resistant without having a nonstick finish that can eventually peel. Moreover, hard-anodized pots and pans are safe to use with metal utensils and under the broiler. Riveted on for strength, the stainless-steel Cool V handles stay cool during stovetop cooking and are oven-safe, as are the lids.

Covering all the basics, this set consists of a 2-1/2-quart covered shallow saucepan; 8-, 10-, and 12-inch open skillets; and 3- and 7-quart covered chef's casseroles. The lid on the larger casserole is domed to send moisture and flavors back into the pot for succulent meat dishes. You'll find low to medium heat is the best temperature range for this fast-heating cookware. After use, wash by hand. Though it's still covered by a lifetime warranty, Calphalon discontinued the Commercial Hard-Anodized line in 2004 and replaced it with Calphalon One Infused Anodized. --Ann Bieri

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - an amazing bargain
This is some of the nicest cookware I've ever used.

The good: Perfect, even heating. You can make even delicate egg-based sauces in this without a double-boiler. Lovely fond too; seared meat releases when it's done and leaves behind exquisite brown bits for deglazing.

The bad: Must be hand-washed; can't go in the dishwasher. Not non-stick; you have to feel the food as you cook it and get it right.

The bottom line: There are two lines of cookware that ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Good Quality Product
This was a very good quality product and well made. Good set with good sizes of pans and skillets.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good sturdy set
this is a good set, but you really need to learn to cook on them, at first everything stuck! we were so used to non-stick pans. Now they work great and clean up nicely.


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - everything sticks
I bought these because I thought it was time I invested in some nice pans. For some reason these pans are the worst things I have ever cooked in. Every thing I make sticks to the pans. I can't make eggs without them sticking to the pans. I can't make anything!


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't Buy These Pans! Buyer Beware
I read many of the product reviews and also own other Calphalon pans, these don't measure up and everything, and I mean everything, sticks to these pans.

I have other Calphalon pans, all with smooth handles, these have cast iron handles and are a cheap knock-off of the originals. Save yourself the frustration and don't buy these pans!

I purchased them for Christmas and I am calling Amazon tomorrow to return.
