The Calphalon One Nonstick 16-Piece Set is just great! If you are someone who enjoys spending time in the kitchen (like me) this is the set for you. When my husband and I got married about 12 years ago, I could not afford such a set. However, about 5 years into our marriage (7 years ago) he came home with this for me - knowing I had wanted one for a very long time. It was perfect!
I have been using this set day in and day out for 7 years. It is very, very, sturdy and long lasting. On the smallest skillet some of the no-stick surface has started to come off but that is due to my son cleaning it one day with a brillo pad! All of the original no stick surfaces have lasted very well. I do not clean my pots and pans in the dishwasher - I know a lot of people do - but I hand wash these and they have held up very very nicely.
I would say given the wear and tear and my own personal experience with them, that these pots and pans will last a good decade - (10 years or so) before needing (or just wanting) to replace them. WHEN the time comes, I will go right back to Calphalon again.
As far as I am concerned, there is no better brand of pots and pans and certainly none tha provides as good as or better a non stick surface.
The sizes of the pots and pans is great - you have skillets and pans for nearly every possible cooking scenario.Love them Love them Love them!!!!!!
Excellent value for the money!
