 A tough review December 4, 2006
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought the 10 piece set for my wife for Christmas one year ago. Initially we loved the set. They heated up quickly and heated more evenly than the Farberware we had before. Points scored on that gift! Then, after about 6 months we noticed are most used pot was chipping on the inside. We always cleaned by hand and used Calphalon tools. I, like many others, read excellent reviews online prior to purchasing. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the whole line or just my set, but I am inclined to throw them away and try something else. The price just doesn't match the quality. Once the "non-stick" is chipped off, everything sticks and burns immediately. If you're thinking about purchasing an entire set, I strongly recommend you attempt to buy a single piece and give it a few trial months before you drop the cha-ching.
 Super quality and love this cookware! October 4, 2006

As an ordinary person who only cooked to eat, not for pleasure, I am amazed at how this cookware has me actually loving to cook! I now can't wait to get out the cookware and try a new recipe. I am very pleased with the quality as well and the difference in the overall cooking and baking experience with this brand. Food seems to have more flavor, cleanup is a breeze, even having to handwash the cookware. Having bought those average Wal Mart brand pots and pans for almost thirty years having these to cook with everyday is a new pleasure! This set and the bakeware set were my 28th wedding anniversary present and I am glad our daughter suggested them to me from seeing them on the cooking channel. I was just about to buy anothe T Fal set from Wal Mart and am now glad I spent the extra money!
UPDATE NOV. 2006 - STILL JUST LOVE MY NEW COOKWARE AND BAKEWARE!!!! STILL A FIVE STAR PRODUCT.

First, let me say right off the top that I'm not a professional chef, I have not been to cooking school and I don't have the slightest idea how make a roux. I am just your average American mom with two kids who like macaroni and cheese, pasta, pancakes, and a good grilled cheese sandwich. And I love this cookware!! I have had it for ten months and it has been nothing but wonderful. Nothing sticks to it!! And everything washes of easily and completely. I have burned on pudding, baked beans, you name it and it washes up quickly and easily. I have followed the manufacturer's recommendation to use only real fats (no Pam spray or other non-stick sprays) and my pans look beautiful (not to mention the fact that my family isn't eating propellant chemicals from a spray can). The biggest challenge I've had with this cookware is getting my husband to not put it in the dishwasher!! It is very easy to handwash, but... well, you know what happens when your husband "cleans" the kitchen for you. Sure there are better cookware sets out there. Calphalon makes some of the best stuff on the market and this is by no means their "top of the line" product. However, if you're like me and simply want to make golden brown pancakes on Saturday morning and creamy mac and cheese on Wednesay night, this set might be exactly what you're looking for. I love it.
Could not be better! March 4, 2006

This is an excellent set of cookware. Rugged, sturdy, and well-built. The only down side for me is the fact that they are not dishwasher friendly. I will definitely buy more Simply Calphalon.
 I want my T-Fal back! February 18, 2006

I have to say this set is not what I expected for such a price.
The food stuck right from the beginning. The nonstick finish is also very cheap. Even with plastic utensils, the finish on my skillets started to dent and scratch. Keep in mind my set is only one month old!
I know many people would say I'm crazy but, I'm going back to the T-Fal skillets I buy at Wal-mart. They are the best value for the money considering all things.
