Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Calphalon PNSII 10-Inch FrypanCustomer Review: mixed review Summary: 2 Stars
I was very much looking forward to cooking with my new Calphalon Professional Nonstick II 10" omlette pan. I bought it because I have always heard about how great Calphalon was. I have mixed feelings about the pan. I love the shape of the inside. It is perfect compared to my old pan. Food fits nicely inside and it is large for a 10" pan. The non stick coating works great. The pan heated well and cooked the food wonderfully.However, cleaning the outside proved to be quite a challenge. I had a small amount of oil on my burner from my cast iron skillet. When I used my Calphalon pan this oil stained the bottom. I followed all the instructions about using a green scrubber with comet on the outside although this got all the grease off there was still a stain. Several days later I was cooking fried chicken and some of the oil splashed over the side. Again, almost impossible to clean this off. I went out and bought some Dormand cleaner, which Calphalon recommends, and it didn't clean it much better. I now have a pan with permanent stains on the outside. I think I'm going to return it and get a non-stick stainless skillet, like All-Clad or KitchenAid.
Description of Calphalon PNSII 10-Inch FrypanOmelets, whether firm country-style or tender French, must be cooked quickly and folded in the pan. A classic omelet pan, therefore, is thick-bottomed for rapid, even heating and shallow with steeply sloped sides so omelets can be rolled easily against them. This pan qualifies on all counts, and it's ideal for sautéing and searing, also. Use only plastic, nylon, and wooden utensils on its nonstick cooking surface. The pan is anodized for hardness. For that no-nonsense, commercial-kitchen look, Calphalon's Professional Nonstick II cookware wears a matte finish. Rolled stainless-steel handles are double-riveted for durability and balance, and stay cool on stovetops. Holes in the handles facilitate hanging on a hook or peg. Made of heavy-gauge aluminum, pans cook without hot spots or warping. Lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
