Product Description
How do you like your eggs? The LR1392CPWR 12" Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick omelette pan feature a thick, flat, wide bottom for quick, even heating and cooking with little to no oils. The gently sloping sides and nonstick surface allow the omelet to glide freely, flip in one quick motion and slide easily from the pan to your plate. The rolled stainless steel Cool Touch handle conducts heat more slowly than cast iron handles, so it stays cool on the stove top. The larger surface also leaves room for side dishes like meats and veggies.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Decent at the price, but lightweight,
By Omar Siddique (Ellicott City, MD USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 12-Inch Covered Omelet Pan (Kitchen)
I've used Calphalon's non-stick cookware since they first introduced it with the Professional and Commercial lines (since discontinued), so I was very interested to see how their new products worked out for me. This one, Calphalon Contemporary, falls in the middle of their current non-stick lineup.
Three things struck me as different right away. One was the inclusion of a tempered glass lid, a nice touch, and not usual on an omelet pan. The second was that the pan was a lot lighter than previous models. This is mostly bad, since with the highly heat-conductive metal they use, hot spots develop and things cook too rapidly. Conversely, as is the case with all thinner pans, the heated pan cools down too much when cold ingredients are added. Finally, the pan is notably deeper than most omelet pans, more similar to a chef's pan, which I found enjoyable since I don't have to be as careful to not slop my ingredients onto the stove-top. For the promotional price this item is being offered currently, it's a decent pan if you watch out for hot spots. Use it for things like stir-fries where its high edges are handy. But it's too light to be ideal for searing, and too thin to be ideal for delicate sauces. So for anything close to list price (which would have made me grant it 3 stars instead of 4), spring for Calphalon One or something else more durable.

Great Pan with Lid, Great Price.,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 12-Inch Covered Omelet Pan (Kitchen)
Great Pan, Great Price.
I can't find anything wrong with this pan, or the 10inch Contemporary Omelet pan I have. My other Cookware is Calphalon Commercial (two simply) This Pan is deeper then most 12inch omelet pan's , which I find this makes this more useful then just for Omelets. I have fried Potatoes in this. I have sauted Chicken breasts, Hamburger meat, It can be used for pancakes, although I use the Calphalon double Griddle. Great for the Large Omelets with Veggies, or just sauteing anything... For me this has become a all around pan, and I do have every size Calphalon makes, I think! Don't forget this can also go into the Oven, and cooks very even. I have used this pan for everything for a couple of months, and I do NOT find that it has warped, or peeled , nothing wrong with this Pan, it still looks like new. Also I have NEVER had any problems with my Calphalon. It has a little stright edge, 1/4inch from the top. I think its there so you do not overfull this, or its for pouring! It also makes it easy for poreing food out of the pan. Everything slides out very smooth. I find this is to be as heavy as my Calphalon Commercial cookware. Are some people wieghing these pans? I can't tell what Pan,Pot is heavier then the next! But the Glass lid is heavy. When useing the lid , cause its glass you can see what is going on under the lid. Most Omelet pans do not have lids. Also I notice that Most, of Calphalons Pan lids fit on each other, no matter what the size! I like this Handle much better then the Calphalon Commercial, (my only complaint about the commercial)Cause this handle is fatter and rounder, (more like the Calphalon One) which makes it easier to hold on too, as I have thin hands. This Pan is a 3 ply just like the Commercial. Hand wash it, its just so easy. My Pan is made in Toledo Ohio Usa, Not China, as some are made from. I bought two of these Pans for $34.99. If your buying this pan for a gift, keep in mind , that it does not come in a Calphalon Box, it came in a Amazon box, wraped with a cardboard Calphalon around it, which said something about this being a special. If you look more into this website you will find this exact Pan with Lid for $99.99!!... I even called Bed bath & beyond about this, and they are carrying both of the pans also, but could not figure it out either...Just told me, that most of there employes are grabing up these pans for the price of $39.99.. One time I had a problem with a big Calphalon defuser I bought at William Sonoma. I did not have to wait long to talk to customer service. They told me they would send me out another one (cost me almost $30.00) I offered to give them my Credit card, they said NO, just keep it or return it to W.S. They were the best Co. I have ever talked to, also so very nice. Not rude like Cuisinart! I would buy this Pan again in a heart Beat..for this price you might beable to buy a pan at walmart, that will peel, not cook even, light wieght, and maybe last you one year..Not with Calphalon, this is garented for life if you do not abuse it. Great Pan, Great Price.

Best Pan Ever!!!,
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 12-Inch Covered Omelet Pan (Kitchen)
Wow, what a great pan...I know a lot of people think that this is a bad pan just because you can't shove it in the dishwasher, but I love cooking with it so much I actually look forward to hand washing it. The instructions to keep it in good shape are very common sense (don't put directly into fridge from hot stove, etc) and if people have had problems with this pan, it's probably because they aren't following the directions. It cooks very evenly and doesn't burn anything and the seal with the lid is so tight that you could easily steam vegetables. Just an awesome pan, can't wait to get the rest of the set that I'm registered for!!!
