Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Calphalon Commercial Nonstick Collector's Edition 16-Inch Roaster with 4-Piece Tool SetCustomer Review: Life Time Warranty Summary: 1 Stars
I'm shocked at the reviews that I've read and the number of people who have thrown the roaster away. Did any of you think to contact Calphalon about the Life Time Warranty instead of just throwing the roaster away? I own several pieces of Calphalon and love them all; however I have not bought the roaster. After reading the reviews I won't by the roaster; however if I ever have any problems with the pieces that I own I WILL call Calphalon about the life time warranty. I recommend that everyone use the life time warranty. If Calphalon is not aware of the problem with the roaster how do they know to fix the problem?
Customer Review: A truly horrible pan Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this pan after hearing my friends rave about Calphalon pots and pans. This pan performed so poorly that it will be the first and last time I will ever be suckered into buying anything Calphalon. After three uses I ended up throwing it away - a total waste of money. So what makes it so bad? First of all, it is a nightmare to clean. I've never had a nonstick pan be this much of chore for clean-up. And after it's third use, it pretty much buckled, causing me to throw it away. I'm sticking with the tried and true All-Clad from now on. Don't waste your money on this roaster.
Customer Review: Don't buy this pan Summary: 2 Stars
I've had this pan for less than a year, and after 5 or 6 uses, I just threw it out tonight. After a couple uses, it "buckled", permanently -- that is, the bottom surface became severely unlevel and was pretty much useless on the stovetop. In addition to that, the nonstick surface came off the pan tonight, despite the fact that I've never used any metal tools in the pan.I did, however, give it 2 stars due to its size and convenient handles. Bottom line: don't buy this pan. It's flimsy and cheap, the surface comes off, and doesn't last a year. Save your money and get an All-Clad.
Customer Review: Don't buy this pan Summary: 1 Stars
Despite the hefty price, this is a lightweight pan. The non-stick surface makes it a poor choice for dishes where you want to make gravy, since it does not develop "fond" (the tasty, crispy bits that contain most of the flavor in pan juices). Since it is so light, contents tend to burn easily. And somehow it doesn't clean as easily as most non-sticks, so there's no upside! I agree with the prior reviewer who advised sticking to All-Clad. I have had one other equally unsatisfactory Calphalon pan (which I donated to charity) and I will not buy another.
