Editorial reviews

Product Description
Calphalon's chef's skillet has sloped sides to facilitate the easy maneuvering of a spatula, and the easy transition from pan to plate of whatever you're cooking. Use for general sautEing, stir frying and with the addition of the cover for simmering. This small 9" pan is ideal for singles and couples cooking dinner for themselves.

Amazon.com Review
This moderately sized, deep, round-sided skillet is like a flat-bottomed wok, perfect for stir-frying and designed to facilitate a chef's C-shaped flipping motion. Because it exposes lots of surface compared to the diameter of its bottom (it's 6 inches at the bottom, 9 inches across the top), the 2-quart skillet is also ideal for quickly reducing sauces. Though not nonstick, like some Calphalon cookware, the matte-finish pan is anodized for stick-resistance as well as hardness. Metal utensils won't harm the surface. Contoured, textured handles of cast stainless steel resist heating on the stovetop, go safely into the oven, and are triple-riveted for durability and balance. Notches in the handles facilitate hanging on a hook or a peg. Made of heavy-gauge aluminum, the pan cooks without hot spots or warping and carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Good stuff, gets a lot of use
I should start my review off saying that my pan was manufactured in Toledo, there seem to be issues with Chinese manufacturing according to some.

That being said, this little pan has become my goto pan for just about everything. The only exception to that is anything going into the oven I still use my all-clad pans, just a force of habit I suppose.

I still don't understand how people have sticking issues with this pan. I can cook eggs on it just fine, or just about anything else for that matter. Certain foods, like eggplant or rice, if cooked long enough and not tended to will eventually stick to the bottom of the pan. In those circumstances I will typically just soak the pan in hot water for 15 minutes and it will come right off.

chef's skillet
Unfortunately I did not review the dimensions on this item and thought It was a wok type pan. I returned it.

My error on not reading all the specs
I am only doing this review so others like me will not make the same mistake I did. I did read other reviews(apparently the wrong ones) and based my purchase on them.
If you are one to do this than here is the most important thing.
.....THIS IS NOT NONSTICK........
I tried cooking a grill cheese(which had butter on the outsides)sandwich and the bread stuck to the skillet and I gave up.
Unfortuately, through my excitement of getting new pans to cook with, I threw the boxes away upon opening.

New design
I have had this pan a week and I am very happy with it. I am a longtime user of commercial hard anodized Calphalon cookware and am replacing a few very worn pieces. This is a new size and deeper skillet than offered in the past and is a great addition to my current Calphalon.

The earlier version of H-A Anodized skillets had a flat lid, allowing condensation (and flavor) to adhere to the underside at times. This does not appear to happen with the newer 'domed' lid design. I appreciate the complete Calphalon use and care instructions that was included, as well. I have shown this to the chief dishwasher in the family in hopes of helping this pan last even longer than my previous Calphalon set (17 years).
