Not great, not terrible.
The pan cooks well, and heats mostly even. Not as well as items I bought from calphalon years ago. My biggest complaint is thr handles are no longer solid and are now rather uncomfortable with sharp edges. Its better than a discount pan but I dont like it as much as my pan from 2010.

Hello Andy! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I’m glad to hear the pan cooks well and heats mostly evenly, but I’m sorry the handle design hasn’t been as comfortable as the older Calphalon pieces you’ve owned. We understand how important a solid, smooth handle is, especially if you’ve been using our cookware for many years. Here are a few tips that may help improve your experience with this pan: 1. Use a silicone handle sleeve or oven mitt when lifting, which can make the sharper edges feel more comfortable during use. 2. Ensure the handle screws are fully tightened (if applicable), as a slightly loose handle can make edges feel more pronounced. 3. Avoid gripping too close to the pan body, where the contour is narrower and can feel sharper compared to older, rounded designs. 4. Use both hands when lifting heavier contents, which can reduce pressure points on the handle. If you need any further assistance or would like us to take a closer look at your specific pan, please feel free to contact us through our official website. We’re always here to support you. https://www.calphalon.com/support/contact-us Or Talk to our experts Mon-Fri, 9AM - 5PM ET Call 1-800-809-PANS (7267) Have a nice day!

Not the Calphalon I remember
Feels light and cheap, not like my other stainless Calphalon pots and pans. Does not have the nice bottom on it that they all have. Also the hollow handle is not what I expected out of Calphalon, it’s cheesy and does not feel safe. I am disappointed in the quality and price point and the overall purchase. I literally could have gone to the dollar store and found a similar product. The ONLY redeeming quality is the graduated marker on the inside wall, but I feel like that will wear out quickly.

Absolutely perfect! I needed to replace that sized pan and looked forever without any luck. Googled that sized pan and target had it. Ordered it and it was exactly what I wanted

New favorite sauce pan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great pan, it's a good medium size so super versatile. I love that it's stainless so it's built to last and can hold up to metal utensils. Not too heavy, and I like that it has the glass top. The handle does get a bit hot so be careful when you grab it off the stovetop

Fantastic!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this saucepan - I’ve heard a lot about the Calphalon brand but haven’t had a chance to try it until now and I love it. It heats things evenly and will clearly last a while given the pot is thick and heavy and I may be converted to this line going forward!

A durable, deep, and beautifully designed saucepan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m absolutely obsessed with this saucepan! It’s incredibly deep, which makes it perfect for everything from boiling pasta to making soups and sauces without worrying about spills. The stainless steel design looks sleek and modern, and it distributes heat evenly every single time. I’ve been using it almost every night since I got it, and it still looks brand new—super durable and easy to clean. This has definitely become my go-to pot in the kitchen!

A pot with BUILT IN MEASUREMENTS!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pot from Calphalon really SURPRISED ME! Not only was it a light weight stainless steel pot with no toxic non stick extra. It came with built in measurements! Why don’t more pots have these!?!?! Overall heats up great with sold heat distribution, and the measurements being built in really makes like easier!

Easy to use and durable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using mostly nonstick pan and was told that stainless steel can be a little difficult to use as it’s may stick if you don’t know how to use it. Well to my surprise, this pot was quite easy to use. I’m using electric stove and it distributes the heat evenly. It doesn’t stick at all if you preheat the pot and use the appropriate amount of oil. It’s easy to clean and seems a lot more sturdy and durable than nonstick. Since stainless steel is safer and healthier to use, I’m definitely going to make the switch. I’m really glad I get to try this pot to truly knows what cooking with stainless steel is like.

Stainless steel, flawless pan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you know how to cook with stainless steel, then this deeper sauce pan is extremely versatile for cooking and easy cleaning. It took approximately 15 minutes to bring tap water to a boil on the second to smallest burner I have so heat distribution with the aluminum core is good. I have other calphalon pots and pans, but this is the first one that has the volume markers on the inside which makes it even better than my other ones for batch cooking. The reason why I do a boil water test first is because previous Calphalon products have quality control issues where the rivets for the pot handles aren't secured as tightly as possible causing a leak. I am happy to report that this sauce pan does not have that problem.

No regrets
My new favorite pan!!! Just purchased an induction stove and of course my previous pans are not magnetic. This pan and other Calphalon pans in this line are fantastic.... heavy duty, well made and easy to cook with on new stove. I had some cleaning issues after a sauce and tried the vinegar and baking soda trick from Calphalon and it worked beautifully. ( Clean as a whistle and no water spots.) I have had to learn to cook a bit differently: heat the pan first before butter or oil, cook at a lower temp setting, etc. but it's about time I honed my kitchen skills anyway! Highly reccommend
