4 out of 5 stars Never used it on a glass top stove, but I love it   February 1, 2008
I've never used it on a glass-top stove (I like my cast-iron too much to use a glass-top stove), but I've never had any real problem with mine, and I use it for just about everything I cook. The nonstick is beginning to peel off after 5 years of use, but since I ignore recommendations and put it in the dishwasher, and have been known occasionally to use a metal spatula in it, I have trouble being too bent out of shape about it. Certainly when, in another year or two, this one wears out I intend to buy another Calphalon to replace it.


1 out of 5 stars Calphalon pans warp and aren't suited to glass top ranges.   July 14, 2007

I am tired of my anodized infused, expensive flat bottomed Calphalon pans turning into woks. They are simply not suited for glass top ranges. Over time, they warp and develop a rounded bottom that causes them to spin dangerously on the stove top when stirring, and they make very poor contact with the heating surface. I have had the same experience with every flat bottomed piece that I have purchased, and while their warranty is OK, I don't care to spend my time sending cookware back to the manufacturer.

I Have a glass top stove as well and this pan warped. Calphalon replaced my first one, but the replacment warped as well. I ended up returning it. Very expensive for such a bad product.

After 3 tries I am giving up on this pan. I replaced it 2 times because there was a black coating on the inside rim of the lid that was flaking off. Now the 3rd pan has warped. I would expect more from a $179 pan. Amazon has had great customer service though. I'm glad I didn't have to go back to the department store each time.


2 out of 5 stars Great design, bad for glass tops   June 22, 2004

I have a glass top stove. The Calphalon contemporary after only 3-4 uses slightly warped. It was enough to have a perceivable "wobble" when using it on the glass top. I subsequently have purchased the Anolon Pro series of pans which has not exibited this behavior. I have used the pans significantly longer than I did the Calphalon.
