I have other pieces from this line and was thrilled to receive this set as a gift. All I wanted was an All Clad 12" omelet pan but my husband knew I liked Calphalon and thought this was a better choice. So do I! I have always cooked omelets in my nonstick pans and was pleased when I cooked one in the 8" pan and it didn't stick! The only drawback of course is you have to use oil to keep it from sticking so I will probably continue to make omelets in my nonstick pan. However, you can get a really nice sear on a steak and sauté chicken breasts using a minimal amount of oil.



The 12" pan is a dream come true. I fried a batch of coconut shrimp without crowding the pan and they all cooked evenly and quickly. This skillet will come in handy if you have a large family. I only cook for two so it more than meets my needs but it is my favorite pan, and I use it more than the 10" pan. The 2 1/2 quart sauce pan is heavy, and I have used it extensively for making sauces, cooking rice, and deep frying small batches of French fries and zucchini fries. The 7 quart chef's casserole seems to be a little thin around the top compared to the rest of the set but it cooks nicely. I used the 3 quart chef's casserole a couple of times to make small batches of soup.



The omelet pans do not have lids and the stockpot lid does not fit any of them. I think the lid that comes with the saucepan may fit the 8" pan. If you have the 5 quart saute pan or the 8 quart sautier, those lids will fit the 12" skillet. The lid from the 12 quart stockpot will fit the 10" skillet.



This makes a great starter set but if you are not familiar with Calphalon cookware, make sure you read and follow the directions in the use and care guide that comes with the set. It will make all the difference between loving this set and hating it.
