Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The high-quality Contemporary Nonstick collection is an update of the popular Professional Nonstick II line with conveniences such as versatile vessel shape and long handles that stay cool on the stovetop. Rounded interior edges and a flared opening ease access during food preparation and clean-up. Add to this a three-coated nonstick interior for quick food release and effortless washing and this pan becomes ideally suited to today's fast-paced households. The heavy-gauge anodized aluminum construction provides excellent conductivity and even heat distribution while the riveted, steel handle securely holds with ergonomically-designed comfort. Appropriate for both stovetop and oven use, the pan safely withstands temperatures up to 450 degrees F but shouldn't be used under a broiler. Metal utensils and abrasive cleaners or brushes should be avoided and hand washing is recommended. Product comes with Calphalon's lifetime warranty.

Product Description

Don't let the name fool you, the Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 10" Omelette pan can be used for much more than just omelettes! It is also a skillet, fry pan, and saute pan- this great little pan could quickly become your most versatile, most used pan. If you are making an omelette, 3 eggs will fit perfectly in the pan. The heavy gauge hard anodized aluminum construction guarantees great even heating throughout. The 3ply nonstick finish ensures that everything will just slip out of the pan- you don't even need to use fats or oils (but if you can it will great enhance the flavor). The Calphalon exclusive nonstick finish is guaranteed to never chip or peel, but always use nylon or wood utensils to protect the surface from scratches. This pan like all Contemporary Nonstick can go in the oven to 450 degrees. The "arch vent" handle resists heat and keeps the handle cool to the touch on the stovetop. Clean your Contemporary Nonstick with a "Dobie" pad (nylon mesh covered sponge) and warm sudsy water, the exterior only can be cleaned with Comet/Ajax and a scotchbrite pad. Never put your Contemporary Nonstick in the dishwasher or use aerosol cooking sprays. Safe for ceramic, glass and any surface requiring a flat bottomed pan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cooks omlettes evenly and great all purpose pan, February 16, 2005

This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 10-Inch Omelet Pan (Kitchen)

There are a lot of things to love about this pan. First, it's heavy enough to keep eggs from scorching. Second, it's truly non-stick...even using cooking spray, our omlettes slide out of the pan in one beautiful piece. Third, it's got great heat conductivity, which allows for even cooking (critical with omlettes, fried eggs, etc.) Fourth, it's so easy to clean, I reach for it for more than just cooking eggs. We use it as a small saute pan and our vegetables never stick.

The pan can also be put in the oven to keep food warm, a nice feature. This was a real find.

This is indeed a great pan, nonstick surface is wonderful and it conducts heat beautifully on my smooth cooktop. The coating did, however, bubble just to the side of the rivets inside the pan.

2.0 out of 5 stars it's okay... but, November 19, 2005

This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 10-Inch Omelet Pan (Kitchen)

We bought this pan 1 1/2 years ago and use it a lot, but the non stick part is coming off and we never put it in the dishwasher and only use the plastic utensils. so.. for $29.50 it's okay, but don't expect it to last a life time. calphalon will send you a new one, but you have to mail in your old one first...
