I have had this set about 6 months and I love it. I don't have to use any oil with anything and nothing sticks. I have had no warping problem at all as another review mentioned. I highly recommend this pan, the handles stay cool so it is very easy to use.

I received this set as a gift. After using the pan a few times (actually, twice) it warped and is now unusable on my flat top cooking range. We're talking through NORMAL use too, I didn't rapidly heat cycle pan or do anything out of the ordinary. Brand new pan which is now useless. It does have a warrantee from Caphalon but it requires that it be shipped to them at my own cost. I would avoid this set and the lack of longevity of this product makes me worry about the other set of Calphalon cookware I received.

**EDIT**: After e-mailing Calphalon their customer service have offered to send me a paid shipping label so I may return the pan at no expense to me and they will send a new one. Hopefully the replacement pan will not be defective.

**EDIT**: After a 2 month wait, I received a replacement pan. The replacement pan was also defective and I have again contacted Calphalon customer service and am waiting to hear back from them. When I received the new pan I filled it with water and heated it over medium high heat. Sure enough the replacement is warp just as bad as the original.

I've had this pan for over two years now and it is still as sturdy and non-stick as new. It's a little larger than I thought it would be, but not unwieldy and it's nice that you can cook an entire meal in it without overcrowding. It looks like the Top Chef set is no longer available, but I'd still recommend the pan alone if you can find it.

My chef friends recommend calphalon as top cuisine set, so i bought one and i confirm what my friends said about it

I already owned a Calphalon nonstick skillet which I love because it's a convenient size and the handles never burn you, so it's easy to take from stove to table. I wanted another Calphalon pan for this reason primarily, and the packaged set was a great price on special (around $40--I see from the Amazon website that it's gone way up, however). The spoon and dishtowel included are of good quality. The cookbook is worthless, featuring tv chefs and idiotic recipes. (I donated it to a library booksale.) Nonetheless, at $40 this was an excellent deal; however at the usual Amazon price I'm not sure it's worth it to get some extras that would only cost a few dollars anyway.

I love this pan!!It is big enough to cook a large meal in it (I have five kids, so very important!), and it cleans up easily. I recently used it for both a simmering stovetop meal and stovetop to oven meal and it worked excellent both times. I would highly recommend this pan. Of course, the best thing is the bonus Top Chef cookbook!

This is a great gift item for newly weds or for any other special occasion for someone that loves to cook and loves to use quality cooking pots!

I received this set a year ago and have been using the pan ever since! I love this pan. The size is fantastic (it much bigger than the 10 inch pan) and it has become my go to pan! I have had no warping problems and have used it over 100 times!! Definitely worth it to pick one up, (the extras didn't impress me and were re-gifted to a top chef fan, so I can't review those!!)
