Amazon.com Review
The Simply Calphalon Stainless line of cookware is an excellent alternative for those who prefer cooking in stainless steel and who desire Calphalon quality at a more budget price. This 10-piece set has all the basics to get your home kitchen up and running. The cookware includes 1-quart and 2-quart covered saucepans; a 3-quart covered sauté pan; a 6-quart covered stockpot; and 8-inch and 10-inch omelet pans.

Made of attractive 18/10 brushed stainless steel, these pans have an aluminum core through their bottoms for even heat distribution. The stainless-steel loop handles are comfortable to grip, plus they minimize heat transfer so handles stay cool on the stovetop. Handles are held in place by sturdy stainless-steel rivets. The covers are made of tempered glass so you can monitor your food while it cooks and have a dome shape, which allows food to retain its moisture while cooking. The cookware and lids are oven-safe up to 450 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

From the Manufacturer
Simply Calphalon makes choosing cookware a simple proposition. Everything that counts in cookware--delicious results, good looks, easy clean up, durability--is built right into it. Best of all, Simply Calphalon makes it easy to enjoy the simple pleasures of preparing and sharing great food at home. So what are you waiting for? Go home and cook!

All-around solid construction and performance.
You'll feel the difference--and the quality--the moment you pick up a Simply Calphalon pan. Simply Calphalon cookware is heavier than similarly priced cookware. That extra weight not only means greater durability; it also means improved performance. Inside every Simply Calphalon Stainless pan is a bottom core crafted from heavy-gauge, highly conductive aluminum. This uniformly thick core is critical to Simply Calphalon's performance. It conducts heat evenly and efficiently--so foods cook evenly, too.

Interior and exterior surfaces of Simply Calphalon Stainless are made from surgical quality 18/10 stainless steel. They're subtly brushed, to maintain their good looks through the years. And they're non-reactive; so they won't change color or affect the taste of your food. Plus, most Simply Calphalon pans are oven and broiler safe, opening all kinds of options for creative cooking. Nonstick omelette pans and covers are oven-safe to 450 degrees.

Sleek--and smart--styling
Clean lines, sleek silhouettes and simple elegance are the essence of Calphalon style. Wheter your décor is traditional, retro or eclectic, the classic Calphalon look simply works! But at Calphalon, form alsways follows function. We design our pans to be hard-working as well as good-looking. Simply Calphalon's contoured stainless steel long handles are individually sized for perfect balance and easy maneuverability with each pan. Helper handles on larger pans provide an extra measure of comfort and safety. All handles are double-riveted to stay right and tight fo rthe life of your cookware. Domed, tempered glass covers collect and return moisture to foods while they cook. And they make it easy to see houw your meal is progressing, too.

Easy soap-and-water clean-up.
Cooking doesn't have to be a lot of work. And with Simply Calphalon Stainless, neither does clean-up. Pans clean up easily with soap and water. In a hurry? You can even put them in the dishwasher.

Simply Calphalon is protected by a ten-year warranty.
Every inch and every aspect of Simply Calphalon is designed and tested to meet Calphalon's strict quality standards.

Customer Reviews

great cookware---can't recommend highly enough
I bought the Calphalon simply stainless cookware 12 piece set (not offered any more?) and a couple extra open stock pieces over two years ago. It arrived within days with no shipping charge. This is the greatest cookware set I've ever owned. Sticking food is NOT a problem, and the cookware maintains a lovely appearance with really no special care. All the saucepans are stainless, but the 8- and 10-inch fry pans have a non-stick finish. The glass lids were a requirement, and I wouldn't ever go back to metal lids again. I would recommend this set, this line, to anyone who wants a nice-looking, nice-functioning cookware set that can go into the dishwasher. I would definitely buy this again, but I think this set will work well for years and years.

Excellent set
I saved for four months to purchase this set and was not disappointed in its performance. My only wish is that the 12-piece set which included the 4 quart sauce pan was still offered.

Great Set! Just be aware of pan sizes
I've been very happy with this set, especially with it being dishwasher safe! The only thing I didn't realize was that I previously had a 2 qt and 4 qt sauce pan, whereas the two smaller ones with this are 1 and 2 qts. The glass lids are great for watching food cook and seem pretty sturdy. I'd consider myself a very amateur cook, so its hard for me to comment on cooking time/heat transfer, etc, but overall I would definitely recommend this set to someone looking for a good quality set that isn't too $$$, and is dishwasher safe!
