Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 1-1/2-Quart Saucepan with Glass Lid
Customer Review: Durable and easy to clean
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had this pan for awhile now, and it is worth the price. Nonstick is not great for everything--it is finicky regarding utensil use and cleaning, and I find it impossible to brown anything in a nonstick pan. However, for those times you do need a nonstick pan (such as for rice) this pan works well. The pan is very easy to clean. Though I have had this pan for less than a year, I have had other Calphalon nonstick pans for much longer, so I can say that the nonstick coatings are quite durable--they last several years, at least.I do have two quibbles with this pan: first, the glass lid is not as useful as you might think. Usually when you are cooking, steam quickly fogs up the lid, making it useless to see what is going on inside. However, I do find that the see-through lid is very useful for rice, as it does not fog up when the rice is nearly done, and I can actually look inside to see how much more time the rice needs. Also, fortunately I can say that the glass lid is quite durable; though I was afraid it would break easily, it survives well in a cabinet full of heavy pots and pans.
My second quibble is that the handle is too short; it does not have a nice, balanced feel. However, the handle does stay cool.
All in all, a good nonstick pan suitable for small batches of rice, sauce, and hot cereal.
