Calphalon Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 13-Piece Cookware Set Reviews
74 of 74 people found the following review helpful Excellent quality at a fair price, This review is from: Calphalon Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 13-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) It was finally time to get rid of the old cookware now that the kids are out of the house and I didn't have to worry about ruined cookware anymore. My plan was 3 mil copper cookware or All Clad. But after seeing this in the store, feeling the weight and quality and then reading a lot of reviews ... I decided to give it a try. My final price with coupon was $320 at BB&Beyond.First, this cookware is excellent but you have to know how to use it. Put the empty pan on the heat at the temperature that you want to cook at. Wait about 2-3 minutes and then add a little oil or butter (but have your food ready or your butter will burn) and heat for about 20 seconds (butter) to 1 minute (oil). Then add your food. Eggs work excellent this way and just slide off the pan. I have also used chicken broth to cook the egg in (just wanted to see if it would stick) and it did not. So as long as your pan is at the correct temperature and you add some kind of liquid you will be ok. I... Read more 28 of 28 people found the following review helpful Great cookware!, By This review is from: Calphalon Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 13-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) I absolutely LOVE this set of cookware. I have an induction burner (which I also LOVE), and it can be hard sometimes finding pans that will work. Not only do these work with any stovetop, but they look and feel great. They're very easy to clean, and I haven't had any problems with things really sticking and I don't have to worry about ingesting chemicals from DuPont. While I really only use the same 3-4 pots/pans most of the time, it's nice to have the variety for when you do need something different. The build quality is really solid and like I said, they're so pretty! Was considering the All-Clad, but I think these are just as good and nearly 1/3 the price. Definitely worth it!! 13 of 13 people found the following review helpful Triply treat, Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Calphalon Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 13-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) Happy Happy joy joy. I can't say enough good things about this cookware. I have been using the same stainless set, Meyers, for 10 years and thought that I was happy with it until I started using this set from Calphalon. The weight, feel and finish of the cookware is just right. I have been using it daily now for the last 2 weeks and have had no major complaints. The only minor complaint I have is with the metal handles just due to the fact that they do get very hot during use and require the use of a potholder. Silicon handles would have been a nice addition to prevent the heat. |

Amazon.com Review
Harder than steel and coated inside with DuPont's exceptionally durable, three-layer Autograph nonstick, the pots and pans in this 12-piece set outfit a kitchen with cookware that's rugged enough for everyday use and looks great on the stovetop or in open storage. Made of hard-anodized aluminum, the pots and pans heat quickly and evenly without hot spots, resist scratching and denting, and are oven-safe to 500 degrees F. Hollow, 18/10 stainless-steel handles polished to a mirror finish stay cool on the stove and are riveted for durability. Handles and rims on tempered-glass lids match the handles in looks and permit cooking to be monitored without releasing heat.
The set consists of 2-quart and 3-quart saucepans with lids; a 4-quart saucepot with lid; a 5-quart sauté pan with lid; an 8-quart stockpot with lid; a 4-quart stainless-steel steamer insert; and a 10-inch skillet. Anolon Professional cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects, and lids are guaranteed against breakage for a lifetime. --Fred Brack

259 of 272 people found the following review helpful Great cookware - doesn't last, By Blueskitten (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Anolon Professional Hard Anodized Nonstick 12-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) We registered for this cookware as a wedding gift. We love the tempered-glass lids so we can see what's cooking. The pans have a nice substantial feel and work well with our smoothtop range. The stay-cool riveted handles are great.At first we loved the nonstick coating, it did what it was supposed to do. However, we have had the pans for less than three years (2 years 8 months) and the nonstick coating is already beginning to come off. We have followed the directions for care and cleaning, and not used any metal utensils on them, so I am very disappointed that the coating hasn't lasted longer. We do cook frequently with high heat, but on a good set of cookware that shouldn't make the coating come off this quickly. There are little hairline scratches (probably from stir-frying shrimp or steaming shellfish) where the coating is now beginning to clump up and rub off when we wash it. It's sad, because we cook a lot, we love this cookware and were hoping it... Read more 62 of 66 people found the following review helpful Great Set for the Money, By This review is from: Anolon Professional Hard Anodized Nonstick 12-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) I shopped around quite a bit before finally settling on this set and I am very pleased with my purchase. I don't understand a lot of the complaints.The fact that the set is a bit heavy is a plus in my book, not a minus. I would have been greatly disappointed if they would have been light and flimsy. I checked out a few different good sets at bed, bath and beyond before buying on-line, and I didn't think any of the big name brand hard adonized sets were any lighter than these. One of the big selling points for me for this set is the fact that they are oven safe to 500 degrees. I have a few recipes I use all the time that start out on the stove and then move into a 375 or 400 oven, or finish under the broiler and this set can take that. Some of the others I compared have handles that won't take that kind of heat. Despite the metal handles, I am very happy that they don't get hot on the stove. I don't put my pots and pans in the dishwasher because my... Read more 65 of 70 people found the following review helpful Peeling after a couple years, By coachant (CA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Anolon Professional Hard Anodized Nonstick 12-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) Although I ONLY hand washed these pots and pans, somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd year, the nonstick coating on the pans started lifting. I also do not use metal cooking utensils.All that being said, I still use these pots and pans (been almost 5 years now). Overall, I originally bought this set for ~$300 5 years ago. The pots are still in excellent condition. If I was looking for pots and pans, I would consider purchasing another set at $150. I do cook a lot (used for business) so my 5 years with these pans may equate to 7-10 years of normal use. |

42 of 42 people found the following review helpful Wow!, By Proud to be a Thinker (Illinois) - See all my reviews This review is from: T-Fal Performance Stainless Steel Copper Bottom Cookware, 10 Piece Set (Kitchen) It's a pleasure to cook with these pans. They are beautiful! I haven't had any problems with food sticking or difficulty cleaning up. They heat quickly and evenly. Be sure to use a lower temperature than you would with non-stick pans. They feel very sturdy.I wish they had made them so each lid fit a pot and saute pan, like my boyfriend's Cuisinart set. But considering that I picked these up for less than half the price of his set... I'm certainly not complaining! 34 of 35 people found the following review helpful It's beautiful BUT, Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: T-Fal Performance Stainless Steel Copper Bottom Cookware, 10 Piece Set (Kitchen) It is a beautiful set of cookware!!! BUT.... There are no lids for the saute pans. I thought the lids that came with the dutch oven and sauce pan would fit the saute pans....but they don't. :( I am very disappointed. 25 of 25 people found the following review helpful Outstanding Quality at Low Price, By This review is from: T-Fal Performance Stainless Steel Copper Bottom Cookware, 10 Piece Set (Kitchen) It's now been about six months since I purchased a set of T-Fal stainless steel pots and pans. They have performed beyond my expectations. The heat distribution is even in all the pans, even the biggest frying pan. I was worried about sticking and clean up but found that if you turn the heat down a little sticking is really not a problem and clean up is easy. They especially clean up well using a stainless steel powder cleaner like Bar Keepers Friend. They are not too heavy and are easy to lift. They would be a bargain at twice the price. I very highly recommend them. |
