I'm evaluating stainless versus nonstick cookware before purchasing all new after years of mix & match cheap stuff, so the promo price was a real deal. This pan is well made, the lid fits well and lid handle stays cool. It was great for sauteing floured chicken breasts (Chicken Marsala), cleaned up easily with a Dobie pad, but fried eggs stuck. It's solid without being too heavy. Seemed to heat evenly. I haven't had a chance to use it too much just yet. If I were to purchase this entire set, I'd still keep a few sizes of nonstick for certain things.

10 inch stainless steel everyday pan

I bought it to replace an aging non-stick pan everyday pan. I wanted stainless because I'm sick of non-stick coatings flaking off .This pan is great looking and anything that does stick cleans off easily. I like the clear cover and it looks great hanging on my pot rack too!

For the price, you really can't beat this pot. The Contemporary Stainless Steel by Calphalon is really beautiful and yet easy to maintain. What I don't like about the everyday pan is that the handles tend to get hot because they are so close to the surface of the stovetop and it is difficult to drain without a third hand. I really think that that the saute pan is much more useful for those two reasons, but it is still a handy little piece to have and isn't as heavy as the saute pan when you just want to cook something small and is way cheaper. I'm glad that I got it.

A MUST HAVE FOR EVERY COOK

SIMPLY ONE OF THE BEST PURCHASES I'VE EVER MADE

The Greatest Pan Ever Created

It's perfect for a full meal for two, or as a side dish for a larger group. It's very attractive and goes directly from the range/oven to the table at our house. It's the third Calphalon Everyday Pan in this house. What does THAT tell you!
