| The sides of this 10-inch nonstick griddle are low and slope gently, so your crêpes slide out without falling apart and your pancakes flip easily. No matter what you're cooking, you're guaranteed quick and even heat distribution, easy food release, and simple cleaning, thanks to the pan's three layers: an aluminum core, a hard-anodized exterior, and a reinforced nonstick surface. The aluminum core provides rapid heat conduction, while the hard-anodized exterior increases the griddle's durability. The nonstick surface allows you to cook low-fat meals without using any oil or butter. The griddle includes a collector's edition recipe card. As with all nonstick surfaces, you should not use metal utensils or abrasive cleaners with the griddle; doing so could void the lifetime warranty. --Laura Cuthbert |

| Whether firm country-style or tender French, omelets must be cooked quickly and folded in the pan. A classic omelet pan, therefore, is thick-bottomed for rapid, even heating and shallow with steeply sloped sides so omelets can be rolled easily against its sides. This big pan qualifies on all counts, and it's ideal for sautéing and searing, also. Calphalon's Commercial nonstick cookware is coated with an especially durable, multilayered nonstick material. Use only plastic, nylon, and wood utensils. The pan is anodized for hardness. For that no-nonsense, professional-kitchen look, this cookware wears a matte finish. Polished, cast-stainless-steel handles are triple-riveted for durability and balance and stay cooler on stovetops. Holes in the handles facilitate hanging on hook or peg. Made of heavy-gauge aluminum, pans cook without hot spots or warping. The pan comes with a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack |

| Calphalon nonstick pans are made for the low-fat cook looking for kitchenware built to last a lifetime. This straight-sided, 4-1/2-quart saucepan, with its heavy-gauge aluminum bottom and sides, is great for evenly reducing larger-volume sauces sans hot spots. Use a light hand on the heat dial though, to protect the nonstick surface from overheating. Also, use plastic, coated, or wooden utensils to protect the finish. Its curved handle is easy to grip and stays cool, thanks to a V-shaped split where it meets the pan, and there's also a short looped utility handle on the opposite side of the pan for heavy lifting. Unlike pans with plastic or wood handles, the extremely sturdy all-metal construction gives you the flexibility to put the pan in the oven, up to 450 degrees. Remember to hand wash all Calphalon pans--dishwasher detergents are bad for the finish, and their use voids the lifetime warranty. --Dale Steinke |

| This 8-quart saucepan is constructed from the same heavy-gauge, hard-anodized aluminum used in Calphalon's traditional line of cookware, so it heats evenly and quickly with no hot spots and no worries about warping. Its distinguishing characteristics are its easy-to-clean nonstick surface, stay-cool handle, and domed stainless-steel lid. Washed with a sponge in hot, soapy water, the LRS3 (Lifetime Release System) nonstick surface easily wipes clean, and scouring pads and manufacturer-approved cleansers work fine on the exterior. With its thick bottom and sides, this pot is an ideal choice for long simmering at low temperatures. Being ovenproof to 450 degrees is a valuable trait: the richest broths are made from charred vegetables and bones. With this pan, it's easy to roast and then simmer the ingredients in the same pot. The well-balanced twin handles really do maintain a temperature that's comfortable to the touch, even after hours over a low flame, though potholders for the handles are needed if the pot's used in the oven. Its domed stainless-steel lid lets steam rise from mixtures, and the curved handle on the lid provides plenty of clearance for fingers. The gleaming stainless-steel lid and handle make an attractive contrast to the matte charcoal-gray body of the pot. --Patricia Draher |

| The term "everyday pan" refers to an all-purpose pan that excels in a variety of situations, but it could just as easily describe the frequency with which you'll use this Calphalon beauty. Featuring an elegantly rounded body with twin helper handles and a tempered glass lid, the Contemporary Nonstick 12-inch pan sears, browns, and sautés vegetables and meats with little effort, while also serving as a quasi-casserole for such dishes as jambalaya or stroganoff. Its curved sides can even accommodate whisks to replicate the function of a large saucier. And, like all Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick cookware, this pan is designed to sit confidently on the dinner table with other serving dishes and dinnerware. If anything, this pan's graceful countenance enhances rather than detracts from your place settings. Contemporary Nonstick cookware is made of durable hard-anodized aluminum, delivering quick, even heating on the stovetop or in the oven. It also includes an exclusive nonstick coating that won't chip, peel, or flake, and--most importantly for many consumers--that cleans easily. The brushed stainless-steel handles stay cool on the stovetop and are riveted to the sides for durability. In addition, the handles' elegantly contoured shape complements the handle on the tempered glass lid (with a stainless band), which fits tightly over the pan's flared rims to seal in flavors and nutrients. The pan is oven-safe to 450 degrees F and carries a limited lifetime warranty. --Rivers Janssen |

The pan’s exterior is made of hard-anodized aluminum for superior heat distribution. The interior is coated with a nonstick surface that is resistant to peeling, chipping, flaking, or cracking. This pan has one long ergonomic brushed stainless-steel handle and one loop handle--both of which stay cool to the touch on the stovetop and are riveted to the wok for durability.

| Perfect for reducing sauces or cooking vegetables on the stovetop and for braising meat in the oven, this shallow, 2-1/2-quart saucepan is coated with nonstick inside to release food readily and clean easily. The nonstick is durable enough to go safely into the oven at temperatures up to 450 degrees F. Made of heavy-gauge aluminum with a matte finish, the pan conducts heat uniformly and quickly. Because the aluminum is anodized it's harder than steel and the pan won't scratch, chip, or crack. The oval, brushed stainless-steel handle stays cool on the stovetop and has a hanging hole for the pan to be stored on hook or peg. The domed glass lid collects and returns moisture to food and permits monitoring of cooking without reducing the temperature inside the pan. Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects. |
