Customer Review: Be Sure of Your Skillet Size BEFORE You Order This Item!
Summary: 2 Stars
I love my Calphalon skillets. I have the 8", 10" and 12" omelets and one of their nice two-handled "everyday" skillets, all non-stick. Only one of them came with a lid, so I asked my husband for this reasonably-priced set of 10" & 12" lids, thinking they would be perfect.
>>>> WRONG !!! <<<<
The 10" lid fits my 10" pans just fine. But the 12" lid doesn't even come CLOSE to fitting my 12" contemporary omelet skillet. It comes to rest about 3/4" down inside the pan, making it wholly unsuitable for use (the rim of the lid touches the non-stick coating, and when hot, will damage the coating -- I know this from sad experience).
Disappointed and angry, I measured my skillet and the lid. The skillet measures exactly 12" in diameter (inside), but the LID measures only 11"!!! WTF?? The salesperson at a local Bed, Bath & Beyond store suggested that the lids were "old stock", meant to fit an older style of skillet. Perhaps. But if this is the case, why no notes to that effect? Why not specify which models of skillet the lid(s) will fit? How hard would that be?
Frankly, I have no argument with the quality of the lids in general, but I am pretty PO'ed over such a blatant disparity in sizes across the Calphalon board. What ever happened to uniformity from product to product within a particular manufacturer's line? Why can't a 12" lid fit ALL 12" skillets/pans of the same maker? Farberware pulled this crap within it's Millennium line of stainless cookware, a situation I found so annoying that I quit buying Farberware and switched to Calphalon.
Again, the lids per se are good lids. Just BE SURE you are ordering the right ones for YOUR skillets. This set gets 2 stars, but ONLY because the 10" lid actually FITS a 10" skillet.
