The reality is this is a $250, professional quality, extraordinarily versatile, big beautiful pan for just a hundred bucks. If you are going to buy one good non-stick pan, make it this one. It cooks rings around hhe Farberware, Revereware, and T-Fal non-stick fry pans you get at Target and Wal-Mart and will last three our four times longer.

Being retired, I have taken up cooking as a hobby. This skillet is verything the company said it would be. It is excellent when frying meats especially chicken, has even heat and crisp the chicken (or other meats)without burn spots. It cleans up with super ease,just a couple of wipes with a kitchen brush. I am so impressed with this skillet, have ordered a 10 inch same material.

I consider this an investment. I have had it with cheap pans that rock around my burners. So, I splurged. This pan is ample, balanced and solid. I'm so glad I bought it.

The Calphalon One Nonstick 13-inch Chef's skillet with glass lid is just what I've been wishing I'd had for the last few years. It holds a whole lot of stir-fry without spilling over and is more versatile than a wok. It's great for a big batch of chili or for browning meat to prep several entrees at once. The lid helps things cook faster and lets me keep an eye on everything, too. Cleanup is a breeze. It's not the skillet I choose every day for just our family of 3, but it is the perfect tool for so many larger jobs and I love having it in my "cooking arsenal." Thank you, Honey, for remembering my wish and finding such a perfect solution!

Works very well for eggs, fish. The none stick surface does not come off over time but it can be easily scratched. Need delicate care so don't use it for everything. We dedicated it for only like egg and fish cooking. Life time warranty allowed us to get a new one after 3 years usage because it got too many scratches over the years.

I have a Calphalon Wok and never seemed to have enough room for all the veggie's and meat. This one works great the deep sides work just as good as a wok and you have more flat area to saute in. The lid is very tough it comes in handy for steaming and holding heat to a dish prior to serving. DON'T wash it in your dishwasher you will ruin the surface.

I bought this 13" skillet about 2 and a half months ago and am very disappointed to find that there are nicks and chips in the inside surface of the pan. I never used any metal implements sharper than a table fork and didnt scrape hard with that, mostly only used a plastic spatula on it. Cleaned only with a Scotch-Brite pad as recommended by the manufacturer.

Pan still works fine but I have stopped using it because of the damage to the cooking surface since I don't want to eat the advanced polymer. Plan to send it back to Calphalon with a letter of complaint.

I thought these pans were my dream come true, a semi-nonstick pan that would stand up to everyday use without damage-- but it's really not much better than a cheap teflon nonstick counterpart. Don't waste your money!

We were looking for a large family size non-stick skillet for pot stickers and this really worked great. The size and performance was excellent as expected. We had owned Calphalon's first anodized cookware before but this updated version works much better in regards to food release and oven safe. The only thing missing from this product is that it is NOT dishwasher safe - must be handwashed. Otherwise the package of skillet plus lid is a good buy and will last a very long time.

Exactly how the skillet was shown. They were fast with shipping.

Thanks
