Waranty is a joke
I thought I was buying a quality product. After all, this pan had a 10 year warranty. Read the fine print. It doesn’t cover the nonstick coating. What a joke. This is a pan that had light use after a couple years. It is unusable. Don’t waste your money. Target has much better pans than this piece of junk.

Hello. Thank you for sharing your experience with the Calphalon 8" Hard Anodized Aluminum Nonstick Fry Pan. We’re very sorry to hear about your disappointment with the nonstick performance and warranty experience. We understand how frustrating it is when a product does not meet your expectations for durability, especially when you purchased it believing it would provide long-term performance. We also understand your concerns regarding the warranty coverage and how the policy may not have aligned with your expectations. Nonstick cookware performance can gradually change over time depending on usage, cooking temperatures, utensils, and cleaning methods, but we understand your concern. To help extend the life of nonstick cookware, we generally recommend using low to medium heat, avoiding aerosol cooking sprays, using silicone or wooden utensils, and handwashing whenever possible. However, we recognize your expectation that the product should have lasted longer under normal use conditions. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback, and your comments regarding coating durability and warranty expectations will be shared with our team as we continue reviewing product performance and customer experience. If you have any more feedback, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Calphalon® Consumer Care

Great pan that loses its way over time
Out of the box, the pan delivers. Heats evenly, nothing sticks, easy to clean. For the first month, it earned every star. But with daily use, a brown film builds up on the nonstick surface that no amount of washing can remove. It's not burnt food (or is it?) Is it the coating itself degrading? Eventually the pan just feels wrong and you have to replace it way too soon. Great performance while it lasts, but "good for 12 weeks" isn't what you're paying for.

Hello. Thank you for your detailed feedback on your Calphalon® Hard-Anodized Nonstick 8-Inch Frying Pan. We’re glad to hear that the pan performed well initially, heating evenly and making cooking and cleanup easy. However, we’re very sorry to hear about the buildup on the nonstick surface and how it affected your experience over time. This is certainly not the lasting performance we expect from our products. Nonstick coatings can sometimes develop discoloration from repeated cooking, especially with high heat or certain oils, but it should not degrade the surface or affect your cooking experience so quickly. We recommend following the care instructions carefully, using medium heat, avoiding metal utensils, and hand washing with mild soap, to help maintain the coating. We hope you find these tips helpful. If you have any more feedback, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Calphalon® Consumer Care

Not nonstick???
I recently transitioned to only stainless 5 ply cookwear but wanted a nonstick pan to make eggs easier in the morning, Used this for the first time to scramble two eggs. Look at the photo on my review... never had a nonstick pan this bad. Going back to stainless.

Hi there, Thank you for giving our Calphalon 8" Hard Anodized Aluminum Nonstick Fry Pan a try, and I’m sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations—especially for something as simple as making eggs. A few quick tips that may help improve the nonstick performance: 1. Use low to medium heat: Nonstick coatings perform best at lower temperatures; high heat can reduce effectiveness. 2. Preheat briefly, then add oil or butter: Even nonstick pans benefit from a small amount of fat for delicate foods like eggs. 3. Avoid cooking sprays: These can leave a residue that builds up over time and affects the surface. 4. Clean gently after use: Use a soft sponge and avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the coating. We will make sure to share your feedback with our appropriate team, as it helps us continue to improve our products and overall experience. If there’s anything else we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our official website's "Contact Us" page. We’re available Monday through Friday from 9 AM – 5 PM ET. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to improve your experience. Thanks, Calphalon Consumer Care

Love it, but not like my old Calphalon
I really love my new 8"? Calphalon frying pan, but it seems very light weight. The old one, which I still have, and use, seems heavier. A bit worried that it could tip or be knocked over and the spilled hot oil or food would be dangerous. Clean up is great! Well made, just much lighter.

Do Not Buy this Pan
I would not buy this product. The heat from the pan transfer the handle to pick it up. You cannot pick up this pan without a heat mitt if you are using it to cook on this stove
1 reply from Customer Care team - 4 months ago
Hello! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know. Here are a few tips that may help in the meantime: 1. Use low to medium heat settings to reduce the amount of heat that transfers through the handle during stovetop cooking. 2. Ensure the pan is centered on the burner so the flame or heat source isn’t extending up the sides. 3. Allow the pan to cool slightly before handling if you’ve been cooking for an extended period. 4. Use a silicone grip or sleeve if you need extra protection while cooking. Your feedback about the heat transfer is important, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. If you need any assistance with your Calphalon product itself, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly via our official website — we’re always here to help! We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am – 5pm Eastern Time. https://www.calphalon.com/support/contact-us Have a nice day!

Not a heavy weight skillet
I was disappointed in this product. It's not a heavy skillet like I assume Calphalon always has been in my past purchases. It's not a bad product but it just isn't high quality like I was hoping

Hot handle
This would be a great little pan except I didn’t realize how hot the handle would get when I was using it. I’ve not had that problem with my other calphalon pans.

Hi! Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Calphalon® Hard-Anodized Nonstick 8-Inch Frying Pan. We're sorry to hear that you've experienced an issue with the handle getting hot during use.

We can provide further assistance, discuss potential solutions. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience.

Used to be good
I’ve loved Calphalon pans for years, but the quality has plummeted! I bought this to replace an 8” Select fry pan and the quality isn’t even close. I’m not sure how they are even allowed to call this pan nonstick. Also, it’s 8” at the widest point. The actual cooking surface is more like 6”. Sorry to say I’ve bought my last calphalon product. The cheapest stuff at the big box stores are better than this junk.

It's OK
This pan is just OK. I bought it with a larger one to replace old Caphalon pans. These are much lighter, and I had eggs stick to the pan after flipping them the first time I used it. I long for the days when we could shop at stores, not online - lesson learned.
