The Simply Calphalon Nonstick Anodized line of cookware is an excellent alternative for those who prefer cooking on a nonstick surface and who desire Calphalon quality at a budget price. This sauté pan has high sides and a domed lid, making it ideal for cooking with liquids. The 5-quart size is large enough to brown and deglaze about four to six chicken breasts or braise six veal shanks in sauce.
Made of durable hard-anodized aluminum of uniform thickness, the pan is an excellent heat conductor and cooks food quickly and evenly. Its double-coated nonstick interior prevents food from sticking and makes cleanup easier. The pan has oval stainless-steel handles with a blasted satin finish that are comfortable to grip and are held in place by sturdy stainless-steel rivets. Also made of brushed stainless steel, the lid is domed to keep moisture in during cooking. This cookware is oven-safe up to 375 degrees F so you don't have to dirty several pans to make one dish. All cookware in this line is 100-percent dishwasher-safe and is covered by a 10-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Good pan:
The lid is great! The pan is just a little thin (light) But it wasn't $200 like a lot of the heavier pans I looked at... You get what you pay for.
calphalon pan:
Great pan! Nice and deep to minimize spatters, and heaviness allows for nice even browning.
wonderful saute pan:
I was an 18/10 stainless-steel user until I got this pan. Nothing sticks in it and it cleans like a breeze. I love it! I was looking for just a chicken fryer, but this is great for any and everything.
Calphalon & Gas--A Great Combination!:
I bought the Calphalon 5-quart saute pan for my wife, who has wanted it for several years. It was the price that held us back. The price I got from Amazon was considerably less than I was prepared to pay for the same pan at Bed Bath & Beyond. I used it to make pork chops with a tomato basel sauce and provolone cheese top. Our gas stove and the saute pan did a perfect job. I particularly like the fact that I can see through the lid which is primarily tempered glass. Great pan!
