Not scratch-resistant
I bought this set because I wanted a stainless steel set. I previously had a Teflon Calphalon set so I'm used to only using wooden spoons or rubber/silicone utensils to cook. Even though this set came in a box advertising metal utensil scratch-resistant, there seems to be these random scratch marks appearing on my pans. Again, I've only used non-metal utensils to cook in them. Why is this happening?

Stainless Steel 11-piece set
So far, so good. I like the clear glass lids and heavy-weight stainless steel pans.

11 piece set, very satisfied.
Great quality, heavy weight but not too heavy to handle. Conduct heat really well. Love them!

Cephalon stainless set
The stainless steel pans are very well made. However, if switching from the traditional non-stick you will need a little adjustment because you will need to cook a little different. Awesome product and our second set.

My 1.6 sauce pan is leaking
I was making humming bird food which consists of water and sugar. The pan was not full but it seemed like it was boiling over, but it was not. then I realized the handle was loose where it attaches to the pot and sugar water was dripping out all over my stove near the handle. What a mess on my gas stove. I loved my pots & pans until this happened. Is there a way to tighten the handle??

Perfect on a gas range
I bought this set about a year ago; held off on reviewing them until I've put them through their paces. I use these daily on my gas range. They cook even and are easy to clean, even when things stick. Those of you who use a gas range know that temperature is key; gas heats the pan faster/hotter, so most things that stick are user error (i.e. I got busy chopping and didn't turn the heat down fast enough). Even so, a quick soak in hot water and a few scrubs with Dawn & steel wool remove any residue and pans, after a year, are still shiny. I love the heavy duty feel and thick glass lids. Highly recommend these for anyone who cooks on a regular basis!

Excellent overall!
I have used these for about 6 months now and they are by far my favorite. They cook just as good as my older All-Clad pans, but the brushed metal means I don't have to worry about scratching or how shiny they are! Be forewarned, and knowledgeable about the fact that these are stainless steel, not non-stick. If you don't know how to properly cook with stainless steel, like ALL restaurants use, then look at non-stick pans instead. These pans do build up marks and char on them but a very easy and simple mash with Bar Keepers Friend brings them right back to looking brand new again! Do your research and be knowledgeable!

Mixed feelings
Bought for ourselves for Christmas. Beautiful appearance. I will never cook ground turkey in the skillet again- is taking days to get it cleaned after normal use. If we have a lifetime of everything sticking I am going to be very upset!!

Horrible pans
We got these pans as a wedding gift and they are honestly the worst pans we have ever used. They aren’t even a year old and everything has always stuck to them. It doesn’t matter what you make it in, the food will stick even with use of butter or olive oil. They look tarnished and old after one use. These are the biggest waste of money. Pans that cost way less are way better than these.

Great pans, however...
I really like the pans. The only issue that I have found is that the handles on the lids get very hot when in use. The older set of Calphalon pans that these replaced had rubber on the pan handles that prevented them from getting to hot.

Not the quality I had hoped for
Over the course of a year I researched cookware, to replace my old Calphalon non-stick set that didn’t seem healthy to use anymore because of erosion of the surface. I finally decided on the Calphalon Premier set after reading many good reviews on it. I’m a bit disappointed. They don’t have the smooth interior of my mom’s old stainless steel pans which always cleaned up beautifully. The sauté pan and the stock pot, which get the most use, have discolorations and areas that are not smooth. I’ve gone to using stainless steel to get the pans clean. Should I have opted for the signature series, or selected another brand? I just expected that a high polish surface would be a standard of good stainless steel cookware.
The handles stay nice and cool which is great. I wish there was a way to have the covers stay cool too.
I was also disappointed that they was no literature in the box. Any basic info was on the box. Kind of hard to keep at hand! There was no real description of the warranty or contact information, which I expect from a quality company. I just expected more.

Great for decoration, I guess
These pans will be ruined after the first piece of bacon. Tried to use a small amount of oil to fry an egg in another pan, now it has a yellow stain. With any luck I’ll be able to boil some water without any consequence. Save your money, you’d have better luck throwing your stove out and being a microwave chef than trying to get acceptable results out of this cookware. Very disappointing, I’ve been cooking at home for years and find great joy in doing so but the prospect of having to use these turns cooking into something to be labored through instead of enjoyed.

Remove these from any registry, do not buy. These are the worst pans. Run away! They are discolored in one use, show scratches, and are way stickier and burn everything compared to other stainless steel pans I’ve cooked with.

Learning curve
Great so far, it is a learning curve going from non stick to stainless but we still like the pans. We are just happy to not consuming all the chemicals that come with non stick options.

Best Pots and Pans EVER!
I have owned this cookware for over four years now and it out-performs EVERYTHING I have cooked with before. There is no coating that can scratch and peel into the food. It cleans up easily. Induction ready. These pots and pans go through the dishwasher and come out sparkling. Recommend this cookware set to EVERYONE!

great quality
Received as a gift at Christmas. Product is very well balanced. Easy to cook with as long as you are careful not to over heat when using (will stick). Cooks very even.

The best cooking set
I registered for this set and I would never go back to my old pots and pans. I feel like a gourmet chef when using them. Would recommend to singles, couples and families.

Love these pots. They cook evenly and clean easily. I switched to stainless from a nonstick set and it s far superior. I couldn’t be happier.

Great looks but food sticks the pans
We bought these this month and I’m not happy with them at all. The food sticks to the pans. Especially eggs. I followed the instructions and still didn’t work

11 Piece Stainless Steel
I got this set as a an early Christmas gift--a replacement for another set that I got in 1988. They were the old gray anodized variety. In fact I had 2 sets and some extra pieces. I used the dickens out of them and in fact the interior was showing some silver aluminum since I cook a lot of tomato sauce. I loved them and was leery about switching to stainless, but it has been a smooth transition so far. The only issue is a small spot on a sauce pan that I am waiting to run through the dishwasher and the fact that the lids click (loudly and a lot) when cooking and cooling down. I followed the directions of starting on low heat and working up to no higher than medium and using a lid if I want a quick boil. They are easy to clean and eggs fry with very little butter in the skillets with no sticking.

Pans Warp
Don't buy. Larger diameter pans like the 12" warp repeatedly.
