Customer Review: One year later...
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this set last December and have used the pieces with regularity since.
Based on price/performace alone, I would have given it 4 stars. It pretty much does what it is supposed to do, and $30 is pretty cheap for a set. I do think that the set is not (or should not be) representative of the Calphalon brand, though I suspect the profit margin on this set is probably much higher than that of its One line of cookware.
My main issue has been echoed here before: rust, namely under the curled edges. This occured the first time I put the bakeware in the dishwasher. The rust is not visible, mind you; but as you take them out, they tended to drip brown liquid all over the floor. Now, my dishwasher is new, and I use regular old Cascade like everyone else, so I don't think the caveat emptor, "some detergents are caustic" really applies in this case.
Now that said, some invisible rust which only exists inside the lip of the pans and which does not come into contact with food doesn't particularly bother me all that much.
At the end of the day, they heat evenly as promised (though I would take about 5 minutes off your normal cook time for some baked goods). So I give 'em 3 stars; I am sure you could buy much worse for $30.
