Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 12-Inch Everyday Pan with Lid

The lady I work has one of these and I like it so much I ordered one for myself. My sister, who cooks for her five adult children loved it so much I gave it to her (I'm a softy). Anyway, I have ordered myself a second one and look forward to using it. HHUUUMMMMMMMMM, maybe my son and daughter-in-law should have one?!

The pan is very versatile, however, when coking, food tends to stick to the pan more than I had anticipated. The cleanup process usually needs to soak the pan and use a non-abrasive pad.

I basically only eat veggies and rice. I love stir fry with a passion and I always find myself making that, fried rice, and plenty of other things. But my pan wasn't made for that kind of stuff, so it drops out everywhere and burns everything. It was frustrating and I hated it so I decided to get this pretty cool looking pan. I didn't even know that it was going to work, but what the heck, it looked like it would. It doesn't spill or burn, my stir fry comes out perfectly. I've used this day in and day out and I love it. It's a good thing to have and made with good quality.

This is the first Calphalon pan I've purchased. I'm a big fan of All-Clad but the price on this one was too good to pass up. I'm so glad I bought it. I highly recommend it. It's become one of the most used pans in the kitchen.

I really love this pan. I have tried it out with different types of food and have not had any difficulties with food sticking like some of the other reviewers have. Perhaps the cooking method makes a difference. I have a Viking Professional Propane Stove so maybe that has something to do with the fact that the food doesn't stick.

In fact I love this pan so much that I just ordered a second one.
