Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Omelets, whether firm country-style or tender French, must be cooked quickly and folded in the pan. A classic omelet pan, therefore, is thick-bottomed for rapid, even heating and shallow with steeply sloped sides so omelets can be rolled easily against them. This pan qualifies on all counts, and it's ideal for sautéing and searing, also. Use only plastic, nylon, and wooden utensils on its nonstick cooking surface. The pan is anodized for hardness. For that no-nonsense, commercial-kitchen look, Calphalon's Professional Nonstick II cookware wears a matte finish. Rolled stainless-steel handles are double-riveted for durability and balance, and stay cool on stovetops. Holes in the handles facilitate hanging on a hook or peg. Made of heavy-gauge aluminum, pans cook without hot spots or warping. Lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

4.0 out of 5 stars Buy Commercial Nonstick instead..., October 11, 2002

This review is from: Calphalon Professional Nonstick II Limited Edition 10-Inch Omelet Pan (Kitchen)

Since my earlier review, my Professional Nonstick II surface has started to wear out, with an increasingly sticky center (arggh!). I will probably have to take advantage of that Lifetime Warranty. However, I now have bought the Calphalon Commercial Nonstick 12" pan, which is also on special ... for about the same price. The Commercial Nonstick line ... has the superior LRS3 nonstick coating compared to the cheaper LRS coating on the Professional line. Believe me, it makes a difference!

So, go commercial, you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A quality company makes a quality pan., September 11, 2001

This review is from: Calphalon Professional Nonstick II Limited Edition 10-Inch Omelet Pan (Kitchen)

Let's face it, there is probably no pan that is perfect. This pan, while coming close, may fail you on occasion. That's where the quality company comes in. I bought a set of Calphalon Professional Nonstick Cookwear 5 years ago. I use my 10" omelette pan maybe 4-5 times a week. Two times I had problems with the nonstick surface. Two times I sent the pan back to Calphalon and two times they replaced it with a brand new pan free of charge, no questions asked. I could have bought a cheap $10 Wal-mart pan, but would probably have to replace it myself every year. This way I spent more money to begin with, but with the service Calphalon provides, I will never regret that decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic handy pan, March 27, 2003

Debbie A Dallas Kennedy (Bryan, Texas United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Calphalon Professional Nonstick II Limited Edition 10-Inch Omelet Pan (Kitchen)

I purchased this pan after doing a lot of research and I love it. I have a professional gas range and most pans leave an unevenly browned bottom with a normally charred gas ring imprint. This pan does not. It is amazing. The pan heats slowly and evenly. Heat is retained well and the bottom is evenly browned. It is perfect for a 3-6 egg omelette and can be finished under the broiler if so desired. I noticed in my research that a purported disadvantage to the non-stick surface is that sauces do not brown, that is not the case in my hands. I have made sauces of all kinds and have been very satisfied with the results. Caramelized onions and garlic are as lovely in this Calphalon non-stick pan as they are in my stainless steel All-Clad pans.
