The term "everyday pan" refers to an all-purpose pan that excels in a variety of situations, but it could just as easily describe the frequency with which you'll use this Calphalon beauty. Featuring an elegantly rounded body with twin helper handles and a tempered glass lid, the Contemporary Nonstick 12-inch pan sears, browns, and sautés vegetables and meats with little effort, while also serving as a quasi-casserole for such dishes as jambalaya or stroganoff. Its curved sides can even accommodate whisks to replicate the function of a large saucier. And, like all Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick cookware, this pan is designed to sit confidently on the dinner table with other serving dishes and dinnerware. If anything, this pan's graceful countenance enhances rather than detracts from your place settings.
Contemporary Nonstick cookware is made of durable hard-anodized aluminum, delivering quick, even heating on the stovetop or in the oven. It also includes an exclusive nonstick coating that won't chip, peel, or flake, and--most importantly for many consumers--that cleans easily. The brushed stainless-steel handles stay cool on the stovetop and are riveted to the sides for durability. In addition, the handles' elegantly contoured shape complements the handle on the tempered glass lid (with a stainless band), which fits tightly over the pan's flared rims to seal in flavors and nutrients. The pan is oven-safe to 450 degrees F and carries a limited lifetime warranty. --Rivers Janssen

The pan's names says it all.... !!,

This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 12-Inch Everyday Pan (Kitchen)
My wife is an excellent chef. We eat high-end restaurant quality dinner virtally every night. We bought a set of non-stick pans quite a number of years ago, and one pan was used so much that she essentially wore it out and the non-stick surface eventually failed. The pan that she liked so much, and used almost every day was a pan that is very similar to this pan. The pan has no long handles, but rather two short handles, one on each side, making it very easy to grip and control. When I started to look for a replacement, I immediately found the Calphalon Everyday Pan. The first one I bought was the hard anodized 12" pan. She loved it but she also wished that it was non-stick. I also bought the 10" non-stick at the same time as this first pan. She loved that one also and used it all the time, but needed the 12". So, we turned around and bought this non-stick 12" Everyday Pan. She literally uses one of these three pans (almost always the 12" Calphalon non-stick) every day. Since I do the dishes, I am aware how much of a daily pattern it is. These pans are fantastic. We both particularly like the two short handles used on these pans. You get tremendous control of the pan with the two small handles compared to the one long handle or even the combinations of one long and one short handle. if you have never used one of these pans, you owe it to yourself to buy one and give it a try. My guess is that would will find it one of the most useful and versatile pans in the kitchen. Wonderful product by a wonderful manufacturer!!

I use it EVERYDAY! I can sear/brown my food - and put into the oven to finish cooking! No more dirtying a skillet AND a baking sheet! The only think I DON'T use it for is soups and stews. Clean up is an absolute breeze. I used to be a fan of T-Fal - not anymore. Like they say - "You only get what you pay for!" Paid $79 here at Amazon - worth every penny!

This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 12-Inch Everyday Pan (Kitchen)
This pan is the pefect pan for so much of my cooking.It is for that reason that I am so frustrated with the amount of heat the side handles and the top handle retain. I have never burnt my fingers as much as I have with these pans. The non stick surface is amazing, and the pans clean up in a second. They would get a five star if they threw in a set of insulated handle covers.
