Non-stick to stainlessI have used calphalon pans for 10+ years, have always been pleased with quality and durability of them. Decided to switch from their non-stick pans to stainless just to be safe in case of metals or chemicals cooking off. Did a bit of research on this set to see where cheapest place to purchase was and it was surprisingly from calphalon’s website. I imagine these pans will last me and my family another 10+ years. 10/10 recommend.

Must buyAmazing! I have the 3 ply which I love. Getting away from pans that have coatings is the way. Learning to use these pans and make them non stick has been a game changer. I showed my mom my new found love for cooking with my pans which she loved so much I decided to get her this set a 5 ply (which is better) because mom has to have the best and she loves them just as much as I do. Algae oil works great to cook with and the steel pan guy is a must follow on ig to help on the new cooking journey.

Great setI’m really happy with this pan set overall. The pans are heavy duty and feel solid, which helps them heat evenly and cook food consistently. The set comes with a great variety of pan sizes, along with matching lids, so it’s easy to find the right pan for any meal. One of my favorite things is that there’s no risk of toxic Teflon getting into my food, which gives me peace of mind when cooking.
The pans perform well on the stove and feel durable enough to last a long time. That said, they do stain easily and require a bit of extra cleaning to keep them looking nice, which can be a downside if you prefer low maintenance cookware. Overall, though, the quality, safety, and versatility make this set a solid choice.

Healthy eatingI’ve had the stainless still set for a couple months and love the even heating. Durability is excellent and my daughter has had her set for years. These pans clean up well even scrambled eggs if you let the pan cool a couple minutes then fill it with hot soapy water for another couple. Then just use a plastic scraper to loosen the food residue and wash. There is slight metallic discoloration over time but you can do an occasional polish with Barkeepers Friend to shine it up. All this to say, with a little extra “elbow grease” you and your family will eat naturally cooked food without any plastic or chemical residue chipping off into the meals. Eat healthy and Merry Christmas!

Great cooking set!Super impressed with this full set! It’s easy to clean, relatively light, and made cooking super enjoyable. The pots and pans look sleek and expensive, though the price point is relatively low! Would recommend.

Great set of cookware!I love this set of pots and pans SOOO much!! They look so classy and sleek. They’re heavy but not too heavy so really feel good quality. I love that this set comes with lids too. Everything kinda stacks inside so it stores away pretty easily too. They are so easy to cook with; I just make the pan hot enough and nothing sticks. So easy to clean too!!!

I loved switching to this healthier option for cooI’ve been loving my Calphalon Premier Stainless Steel 12-Piece Set, not just for how beautiful and durable it is, but also for how much healthier it’s made my cooking routine. Stainless steel is one of the safest and cleanest materials to cook with — it’s non-toxic, non-reactive, and free of coatings that can break down over time. I can cook confidently knowing there are no chemicals or nonstick layers that could leach into my food, even when using high heat.
The set heats evenly, so I use less oil and butter while still getting a perfect sear or sauté. I’ve noticed how clean the flavors are — especially when cooking veggies, fish, and lean proteins. Everything tastes fresher and more natural.
I also love how easy it is to clean and maintain — just a quick soak or polish and it looks brand new. The lids fit snugly, locking in nutrients and moisture so meals stay flavorful without needing heavy sauces or excess fats.
For anyone looking to make a healthier, long-term upgrade in their kitchen, this set is absolutely worth it. It combines professional quality with peace of mind. Gifted from Influenster in exchange for my honest review.

Amazing quality pots and pansI received this from Influenster and Calphalon in exchange for my honest review. These pots and pans are amazing. The highest quality cookware I have ever owned, very sturdy handles and lids. Packaged very efficiently in the box, and usually not too difficult to clean. I would highly recommend this product, it changed my mind on stainless steel cookware honestly.

I actually paid for this myself.I actually bought these myself and I was pretty confident going into this decision, but I really am amazed by the cookware. I also spent 2 weeks prior to purchase getting every piece of information about stainless steel cookware available. These pans are easy to overheat, but the handles stay cool if you don't do that. Also don't use barkeeper's cleaner on these, please, for both of us. My memory of stainless steel in a commercial kitchens was a slight discoloration that is literally part of the pan. But for these, if cooked, used, and cleaned properly, shouldn't have anything actually 'stuck' onto them.
I already trusted Calphalon (from there reputation historically) and the intern didn't have much criticism towards them. I'll admit it was weird not seeing an actual review on the official website, so I thought I'd throw some positive feedback.
I did get 25% off and bought the 13" wok as well. The trade off is I guess they can market to me via email and text? At this point I'd just pick up a new accessory if they had it because I have everything already else anyways. This is not a paid review, I was originally going to just get the set of 3 pans lol.

Love but hard to keep cleanI really love these pots and pans, they’re heavy, durable, fantastic design. I only gave 3 stars though because they’re very hard to keep clean (see photo) we basically have to keep barkeeper cleaner on hand after everytime we cook. The handle also gets hot. Otherwise we love them and will deal with these pain points.

High quality cookware!These pots and pans are the nicest I’ve ever cooked with. They’re sturdy and cook my food evenly. The pans don’t deform which I’ve seen with other brands. I use them every day and they hold up very well. The quality is truly unmatched and I believe these will last for years to come. I would highly recommend this product!

Durable and nice set !I love this 12 piece stainless steel set from Calphalon. It is a nice heavy set. It is dishwasher safe. You can tell it is well made and durable. It heats quickly and food does not stick when it is used correctly.

Great nonstick setI have recently been hearing more and more about non-toxic cookware, and I was interested to see this box was labeled as such I have not bought a set of pots and pans probably for 15 years. My last was also caphelon stainless steel but with copper accents I was excited to try this new set. These were actually different sizes than what I currently have so I was able to augment my current set. I also currently still have some nonstick pans that I will probably keep for things that are really sticky such as scrambled eggs. I use my first pan to make some fried meat for sandwich sandwiches. I forgot you need to add a lot of extra oil when cooking with stainless steel and I did have some stuck on food on the bottom however, I also remember it’s much easier to clean stainless steel as you can use pad or other surfaces that you couldn’t use on a nonstick surface I also used one of the pots already to boil some pasta for my kids. I like the capacity of this pot as I can cook an entire box of pasta a whole pound and not have to use a really large pot and I have to do two smaller pots. In looking at the pricing of the set, I see you can vary anywhere from two to $500 depend out where it’s purchased. I think this is a great set and it will last for many more years in our household. I like that the set came with all new lids as well. It was packaged very nicely and it was like taking apart a puzzle. All the pieces were nestled and packaged very nicely with plastic and cardboard, to keep everything from being scratched in transit and in storage.
