Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This shallow 2-quart chef’s pan cooks rice or heats enough soup or pasta sauce for two to three servings. Part of Calphalon's affordable Kitchen Essentials line of cookware, this pan is made of polished 18/10 stainless steel and has a thick, aluminum core that provides quick and even heat distribution. The comfortable synthetic handles stay cool on the stovetop and are riveted to the pan for durability. The included tempered glass lid allows you to watch your food as it cooks and its domed shape is ideal for moist-heat cooking. All Kitchen Essentials stainless-steel cookware is oven-safe up to 375 degrees F, dishwasher-safe, and covered by a 10-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

A word of warning, this is not an aluminum core pan (a la All Clad) as stated. It is stainless steel with an aluminum core BOTTOM. That said, it is still a nice pan for the money. The curved side-to-bottom makes it perfect for sauces that need to be whisked like a bechamel. Also known as a saucier pan.

I own the 10 pc set and am now adding pieces to the set. They heat very evenly and clean up is a breeze. Also, the people at the calphalon are great w/customer service too. Highly recomend.

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome everyday pan, February 14, 2003

I got this pan practically for free b'c it was a friday special and had a $10 cert. I was not expecting much out of it and was even thinking of just giving it to someone. But when I received it, I realized this pan was awesome. First off, it's NOT non-stick which is what I want! It comes with a lid which unfortunately, most of my other pans do not, and the weight of the pan and construction is just simply solid. It does not feel flimsy. I'm a soup and noodle person and use this pan consistantly w/ no problems with it! Awesome buy for and awesome price!
