Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 9-Piece Cookware Set
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 What's in the Box 9-piece cookware set.

Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 9-Piece Cookware Set Reviews
Can't wash them IMMEDIATELY after use. Very disappointed in these pans, though usable I'm sorry I insinerated the boxes cuz now its a hassle to send them back. Can't put them in the dishwasher. I wouldn't recommend. Keep looking for something that you don't have to let your raw eggs warm to room temperature before putting them in the skillet (otherwise they will most definitely stick). Have to let them cool down. Ultra special instructions for how to NOT get stuff to stick to them.
I see a lot of the bad reviews for this product are people complaining that everything sticks. This is my first set of Calphalon cookware and I'm impressed. They are cheaper and work just about as well.Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 9-Piece Cookware Set I recommend this as a great quality set for a low price (I paid $139 on memorial day sale), but also look at the Farberware sets. It only sticks if you treat it like a teflon coated pan. A little butter (I use earth balance) and cooking on a lower temp and nothing sticks. There is a learning curve though, you MUST let them warm up slowly and cook on a lower temperature of ALL your food will stick.
It cooks evenly without burning and I love it. You get the ease of cast iron with the light weight and easy to clean hard-anodized surface. I already had two pieces of Calphalon when this opportunity came available to purchase the 9 piece set.
Cleans up easily; I am just very, very pleased with this set. Looks good and cooks superbly; not a nonstick surface, but I was aware of that.
I read some of the reviews, so I was worried about quality. I am happy with my purchase, both performance and price. I have used every pan I've received-I bought these to supplement my other full set of pots/pans. There was a smell of gas/chemicals on first use, but it was fine. I had one lid with scratches (nothing too bad), but that was it.
