I got this set 3 months ago, and really like it. After using stuff like Ecko Bakers Secret for years (and replacing it every 2 or 3 years), it is really a treat to have quality bakeware like this. These are made really nice, and have a definite weight to them. I've had no problems with warping at all. The non-stick coating is great. I've even made brownies in the 8x8 pan without greasing it, and they popped right out. Be aware that you should not use these under the broiler though because of the non-stick coating. I bought two set of these. I stack mine with old dishtowels in between them to protect them from scratches.

These are not dishwasher safe. However, they wash up in a few seconds due to the non-stick coating.

The Calphalon Commercial Nonstick Bakeware collection is excellent. I recommend them without reservation. This is a great starter set. Once you use this set you are going to want the whole collection!

One note: you may want to check on your baked goods a couple of minutes early. I have noticed that cakes are done a little quicker in pans with a dark finish. Many newer recipes will indicate the timing for dark finish bakeware. These pans are also a breeze to clean, just a little soap and water and you are done. Wonderful Pans! Highly recommended!

Also, read the Calphalon brochure in the box, if you plan to nest this pan with others make sure to put a paper towel between them to prevent any damage to the nonstick coating. And, this pan is not dishwasher safe.

I wouldn't even trade my Calphalon Nonstick Bakeware for an All Clad bakeware, all my cookware is All Clad and I love it but nothing beats high quality, heavy duty Nonstick bakeware!

I have the entire line of Calphalon Professional cookware. However I did not have any baking pans. They are not dishwasher safe, which they tell you, if the other person had read the paperwork and seem indestructible if washed by hand. Nice even browning. They are great.

The muffin pan and cake pan work beautifully, but the jelly roll pan does warp slightly in the oven. I thought I had a defective pan, but a friend of mine purchased the exact same pan at a local home store, and hers did the same thing (she returned it). The jelly roll pan does seem to cook just fine, though. These pans are made in China, not Ohio, and do not have the Calphalon stamp on the bottom. Overall, I like the set considering the price.

If you like eating the Nonstick Coating Enjoy!
They all stuck to everything that was made & the Coating came off when I Cooked & Cleaned it. Go for Circulon or Technique.

This set has served me faithfully for almost a year now. I use this pan mostly for the muffin pan as I'm saving my collection of Calphalon for moving into a new house but these pans have been nothing short of miracle workers.
Their ability to release foods is amazing. I dont think I've owned nonstick this wonderful in the past. Though I do suggest using a spray oil on these pans like Pam or Crisco before cooking those bran muffins, I found out the hard way when I forgot to spray my pan that they did release with minimal sticking.

As for comments as to the jelly roll pan warping, never ever put Calphalon in the dishwasher or use it like a cookie sheet, even if it doesnt warp the first time it will warp because it wasnt made to withstand the high temps of cookie baking and dishwashers. But for a good jelly roll or mini cakes (just stamp the cake with a large round cookie cutter for layers) the jelly roll pan performs wonderfully.
The square pan is good, I just dont use it all that much because I dont cook many square items like brownies.

I have the Calphalon professional line, and recently purchased this set of bakeware. I am very impressed. Even cooking, and strong, ridged pans. Never flex or bend in the oven. I even forgot to grease the pan, and nothing stuck. That's my idea of a good pan. But, like all of Calphalon's non-stick line, these are not dishwasher safe. Be sure to read the included owners manual next time!

These are heavy, sturdy-looking pans that I enjoyed cooking with... once. After popping one into the dishwasher, I pulled it out and was greeted by a splash of brown, rusty water all over my floor and pants.

The side lip of all these pans are curled over, leaving space for water to get trapped. The metal in this crevace must not be treated with *any* kind of coating, because it rusts very, very quickly.

It's a shame, because they would have been quite nice pans.
