THIN AND CHEAP

Hello, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the Calphalon® Hard-Anodized Nonstick 12" Jumbo Frying Pan with Lid did not meet your expectations, especially when you were hoping to replace a previous 12 inch Calphalon Select pan you enjoyed. We understand how disappointing it can be when a new piece does not feel comparable to a trusted favorite. While this pan is designed with hard anodized aluminum for reliable everyday performance and even heating, we recognize that differences in construction and weight between collections can be noticeable. Your comments regarding the thickness and overall feel are important, and we will be sure to share them with our product team. If you would like assistance exploring options that may better match what you previously owned, our team would be glad to help. Please reach out to us via https://www.calphalon.com/support/contact-us , at 1-800-809-PANS (7267) or through LiveChat. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.

The Versatile Jumbo Frying Pan
I love my new Calphalon Jumbo Frying pan. I was replacing my old large, high sided frying pan that came with my set 40 years ago. I used it very often and it finally gave up the ghost. I like the new design that I recently purchased because it works well as a fry pan and wok. Thank you Calphalon.

Not at all as good as our old Calphalon.
Owner a similar calphalon pan for 10 years and loved it. Intended to replace it with this one, but they’re hardly the same. The pan thickness is a bit thin, makes the pan feel a bit too light and flimsy. I prefer a beefier feel. The non stick coating seems solid after a few tries. But the handle gets REALLY hot on our gas stove. Not good. We had to use an oven mitt to hold it while cooking! The lid is also sub-optimal. Overall works fine, but the lid handle gets hot as well. Not as big a deal as the pan handle, but we had none of these issues with the old calphalon we are replacing. Perhaps their quality is going downhill.

This is a coated pan don't buy it
Misleading descriptions. I was looking for an uncoated pan. This one says ‘nonstick technology’ (not ‘coating’) suggesting the anodizing makes it nonstick, but it’s actually coated. The only material in the description or specifications is ‘hard-anodized aluminum’, and I couldn’t find anywhere saying what the interior surface material actually is made of. Probably PTFE or something similar.

Hello Adam, Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback on our Hard-Anodized Nonstick 12" Jumbo Frying Pan with Lid. We’re sorry to hear that the product description felt unclear and didn’t meet your expectations. To clarify, our Calphalon® traditional nonstick line of cookware uses one common PFAS chemical, polytetrafluoroethylene (“PTFE”). This PTFE coating complies with FDA regulations that approve its use in food-contact applications. That said, we value your feedback and it will be forwarded to the appropriate department for further review. If you require assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us directly. You can do so via the 'Contact Us' form on our official website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Calphalon® Consumer Care

Awesome Personified
My wife needed a new, extra large, deep frying pan after the one she used for 20 years gave up the ghost back in the late summer 2024. She has already put her new prized possession to good use and we have enjoyed among other delectables her chili.

Good pan but…
Just purchased 3rd 12” jumbo pan, great product until the most current version release. New handle design eliminated the coated handles and they now burn your hand during use. MUST use some type of handle cover which is a significant downgrade… disappointed.

Hello Joe, Thank you for reaching out to us with your feedback on our Hard-Anodized Nonstick 12" Jumbo Frying Pan. We're sorry to hear that the cookware did not meet your expectations due to the design of the handles. Although Calphalon cookware handles are designed to stay comfortably cool during stove top cooking, always use caution when cooking on the stove top, oven or broiler. High cooking temperatures, and long cooking times can cause handles to get hot on the stove top. Always use a potholder or oven mitt to prevent burns when handling cookware on the stove top. We value your feedback and it will be forwarded to the appropriate department for further review. If you require assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us directly. You can do so via the 'Contact Us' form on our official website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Calphalon® Consumer Care

The bottom of the pot is uneven
I'm using an electric stove, and I feel like the bottom of the pot isn't flat enough, causing the pot to wobble.

Your feedback is appreciated and will be shared with our product team for review. We want to look into this further and encourage you to reach out to us directly with images of videos of this issue so we can help you. Reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website.

Hot handle
Or if the pan contents are too liquid, I will use a trivet to stabilize the pan if I have to move it from the stove to the oven or oven to counter andmake sure the food doesn't slosh around and spill. Otherwise, one off my most used pieces in my collection.

Non-Stick Coating Does Not Last
Non-stick coating scratched within 1 month of light usage. Only used wooden spatula and cleaned with non-stick safe sponge. Disappointed.
1 reply from Customer Care team - 10 months ago
Hello. Thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your Calphalon® Hard-Anodized Nonstick 12" Jumbo Frying Pan with Lid developed scratches in the non-stick coating so quickly, especially with light use and proper utensils. We understand how disappointing this experience can be and appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Calphalon products are designed to be durable and high-performing, and what you described is not typical. We recommend reaching out to us directly so we can look into this further and explore options to make things right. If possible, please have your proof of purchase and photos of the damage ready to help speed up the process. To help extend the life of your nonstick cookware, here are a few care tips: - Always use non-metal utensils such as wood, silicone, or plastic. - Avoid cooking sprays, which can build up over time and damage the coating. - Hand wash with a soft sponge and mild detergent, avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. - Store carefully to prevent the cooking surface from scratching against other items. We stand by the quality of our cookware and are here to support you. Thank you again for choosing Calphalon. 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

Extremley low quality for a calphalan brand
I own and owned many calphalon brand cookware. This product is of the lowest quality. It’s very light and flimsy and the handle is made of a low quality material (it gets hot after a few minutes of cooking). After a few weeks of light using, there are many marks shown on the bottom. I will start to avoid buying calphalon cookware. Very disappointing!
