Was not a good pan for me.

I used this pan twice with light cooking oil and both times the food stuck to the pan. I returned the pan and had to pay $15 for return shipping. Very disappointed because I have two other Calphalon pans that are great.

Non-Stick is a Joke

Even egg whites stick to the surface and that's after spraying the pan with non-stick cooking spray. We purchased this pan to replace a Calphalon pan we had for many years, as the non-stick coating was starting to come off in our food. I am very disappointed that Calphalon would put out a pan of this caliber, not too mention call it "commercial" grade cookware.

I'm so happy that Calphalon has finally started making cookware in the original finish again.

finish not as refined as the chef's pans,

bought this because of the quality of the chef's pan. at first glance it appeared to be made the same but after using it i found it not to clean up as easy.

Not advertised clearly

This is advertised as an OMLETTE pan. That gives buyers the impression that this is a non-stick pan. To my horror, everything stuck to the pan. I will never use this and I wasted precious good money. This product needs to be more specific in its purpose of use, emphasizing that if you try to cook eggs or pancakes on it, you will be so sorry you did!

I have been using your 10" Omelette Pan for years and love it. We just purchased this new one to use at our weekend home. I prefer the Commercial finish to the non stick, and have had trouble finding it. I am pleased that you have re-introduced this line.

The size suits my needs. I apparently did not read instructions because I wanted a non stick coating. But I like it.

I really like the commercial hard anodized that do not have the non stick coating. My pan preference is the commercial hard anodized for fry pans and tri-ply for sauce pans and stock pots. I wish you had the everyday pan in the commercial hard anodized.

Amazing Must Have Pan!!!

I was concerned my omlettes or scrambled eggs might stick because this wasn't a non-stick pan....boy was I wrong! I sprayed a touch of cooking spray on it, JUST like a do my non-stick, and everything slides right out like a dream! I cook breakfast eggs on it every day and it's just as wonderful as the day I bought it. I don't put it in the dishwasher I just hand wash and dry it. Cleaning is so easy I've never had to use an sos pad or scratchy side of my sponge. I've read reviewers who say things stick, but I have to wonder if a little common sense wouldn't fix that by using a little cooking spray or oil considering it's not a non-stick. Non-stick pans will flake and they aren't forever non-stick anyway with regular use so I'd rather spend my money on something that will last AND is healthier. Further benefits I have with this versus non-stick are COMPLETELY EVEN COOKING throughout my food and PERFECT EGGS! It's a miraculous little pan and I am going to purchase more from this line. I can't say enough about it and I think this will last me many, many years. If your on the fence, try it. I promise the lasting quality of this pan is a bargain for twice price!

Excellent Product

Yes, it is not a non-stick pan, but a very good saute or for other such uses. I do not have to worry about scraping the bottom of the pan or any of the coating coming off with the use of various utensils. It heats very evenly without hot spots so there is no tendency to burn any part of what is being cooked. Same temperature all around. Heats up fairly quickly and is of reasonable weight. A solid product.

Damaged

This pan was scratched. The coating was scratched near the handle. We would like to exchange it for another one.

Great pan

I used it for the first time tonight to cook a steak, I seared it first and it worked great the steak came out great, I usely bar b que it but I wanted to try it to see if it would cook the steak, I'm happy with it

good all around untensil

good pan, I can see using it along with my 50+ year old cast iron which is great. pretty much non stick if you cook the right things, not for everything but great for most. If you learn how to cook this will be a great pan for your pantry. wont wear out like non stick stuff that is temporary, think this will be a good long term staple. recommend it if you dont pay too much. non stick is occasionally useful but over-rated.

Everything sticks;$30 to return it

I recieved this as a Christmas gift and read all the info provided. After following every step I attempted to make eggs and Sausage. The sausage stuck and the eggs stuck. I got online and tried to find out what I did wrong. I started an online chat with the company and she told me to add oil or butter to the pan before starting.Hello it's sausage.I can't begin to add extra fat to my meals just to use this pan. When cleaning it is not hard but the sides get this sticky film and makes it tacky, I had to go buy a special cleaner for it. I tried to return it and it was going to cost me as much as the pan .Iam stuck with it.To return it cost $30 in the same package. Caphalon let me down.

10 inch commercial skillet

The skillet was a replacement for another similar product.

Great Pan

We have a set of these and have had for over 10 years they are very durable, easy to clean. We just can't say enough about this line of pans.

Has finish changed on Comm Hard-Anodized?

I have waited a long time to order this typically expensive commercial hard-anodized omelette pan during a half-price sale because I have owned a smaller Calphalon hard-anodized omelette pan for about 15 years. It was my favorite pan though too small to use for most things. I never had any issues with foods sticking in the previous omelette pan, but I am consistently having problems with eggs sticking in the newer pan. I have followed the NEW instructions to the letter. I cannot figure out if I am doing something wrong, or if the finish has changed somehow. It is good for browning and deglazing, but I have not been able to duplicate my normal fluffy egg results in this new pan.

10" skillet

I was looking to replace my 10" skillet so when I ordered the same item number I was thinking I'd receive the exact skillet. Instead I received the omelette pan, same item number, but the top edge has a little curve rather than a straight edge. It works fine and the lid of the original pan fits but not exactly. Over all it will work for my type of cooking. It's not a disappointment, just different.

Using the pan

I burned several things before I got used to using this pan. I have a gas stove-top and had to learn that I must use a lower heat than with my other pans. I do enjoy cooking with this pan and look forward to using in the years to come.
