Editorial Reviews:
From the comfortably arched handles to the stylish flared silhouettes, the Calphalon Contemporary line is designed to please. Looks aren't everything however, and this cookware line is not simply another pretty face! No indeed, this collection is constructed of heavy gauge aluminum, reknowned for its fast and even heating, and it's lined with durable non-stick for easy clean up and low fat cooking. Lids are of tempered glass to allow visual monitoring of the cooking process. This sauce pan is a good choice for making puddings, heating hot fudge or dips or for cooking veggies. Additionally the low and wide profile combine to facilitate evaporation, an essential aspect of reduction sauces.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Buy. You won't be sorryComment: Bought several of these pans two years ago to give to our daughters as gifts after having bought one and liked it so well ourselves. They have told us how well they like them. Still have a spare to use, when and if we ever need it. Some buyers have complained about staining. I have been successful removing stains by scrubbing with a paste made of baking soda and water.Customer Rating: Summary: Not clear on how I lived without itComment: Got this pot recently, only because with holidays I needed another 2-ish quart.
I feel like an annoying TV ad. It boils, it sautes, it pours, it doesn't scorch or scratch
I particularly like the not sharp inner base curve so not burned bits, easy saucier whisking.
So, initially an extra, cheapy pan (a bargain at $33!!!) Now, wondering what I did without it. Wish there was a steamer insert made to fit, then the whole meal would cook in one pot...Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect and compact.Comment: This small saucier is just perfect for small entrees, reducing gravy, sauteing a few vegetables, etc. We're empty nesters, and I use it several times a week. Great purchase!Customer Rating: Summary: Phenomenally versatile, lasting durabilityComment: If you're buying ONE pot or pan, make it this one. Here's why it's great:
(1)Extremely nonstick -- eggs, caramel, even stuff burned black came off with the wipe of a sponge
(2)Even heating -- thick and conductive metal cooks everything gently with no hotspots, no burning of delicate sauces
(3)Durable nonstick coating -- I've used scouring pads & metal utensils, and there's not a hint of wearing or flaking on the coating
(4)Well-designed lid -- glass so you can see in, tempered so you can do everything but hammer it and it will last, handle for when it gets hot
(5)Tight seal for rice cooking (and other dishes that need to trap moisture)
(6)Stain resistance -- I've cooked dozens of curries in this pot, and there's not a hint of turmeric stain
(7)No warping so far
This dish has been my workhorse for 3 years now, and I couldn't ask for a finer one.Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect multiuse potComment: I love to cook and find this pot is very well made and has an excellent durable finish.
I purchased it at Amazon and find their service and selection makes them easy to shop with.
