Product Description
From the comfortably arched handles to the stylish flared silhouettes, the Calphalon Contemporary line is designed to please. Looks aren't everything however, and this cookware line is not simply another pretty face! No indeed, this collection is constructed of heavy gauge aluminum, reknowned for its fast and even heating, and it's lined with durable non-stick for easy clean up and low fat cooking. Lids are of tempered glass to allow visual monitoring of the cooking process. A small sauce pan is essential for making sauces of course, but also handy for making puddings, boiling eggs, heating soup, or cooking rice.

From the Manufacturer
Get together with Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick.
Sharing great food with friends and family is surely one of life's most delicious pleasures. And Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick makes it so easy to get together!
Designed to fit your style of cooking, living and entertaining, Contemporary Nonstick features an exclusive nonstick interior, formulated for durability and effortless clean-up. (Our nonstick coating makes preparing healthy, low-fat meals a snap, too.) Constructed from heavy-gauge hard-anodized aluminum, Contemporary Nonstick cookware heats evenly, sears quickly and browns foods beautifully--and it's guaranteed to last a lifetime.
Even a quick glance at Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick tells you, there's something exciting happening in the Calphalon Kitchen. You notice it in the cookware's gracefully curved vessels . . . in its elegantly arched, subtly polished handles and sparkling glass-and-stainless covers. We designed Contemporary Nonstick so you wouldn't dream of hiding it in the kitchen--you'll want to bring it right to the table. The Pot Lucky pan is just right for casseroles, risotto, mashed potatoes and more. Contemporary Nonstick's full-capacity line helps prevent over-filling and simplifies serving!
Contemporary Nonstick cookware is designed for versatility. Vessels are shaped to accommodate several different techniques. Many feature two loop handles, to easily allow for both stovetop and oven cooking. (All Contemporary Nonstick pans are oven-safe to 450 degrees.) They're also perfect for serving--whether in the kitchen, dining room, living room or den. The Entertainer is a perfect example: it sautés, braises, or bakes with equal finesse!
Contemporary Nonstick's stay-cool long handles make stovetop cooking more comfortable and convenient. Making omelettes to order is no problem--your Daily Sizzle pan's handle will stay cool no matter how many you have to flip!
Pancakes, French toast, toast, and eggs over-easy all slide effortlessly from atop your Morning Glory pan. And clean-up takes no time at all, thanks to an exclusive Calphalon nonstick coating. The Morning Glory is also ideal for grilled sandwiches and veggie burgers. Don't make brunch--or lunch--without it!
Some things can't be rushed. Pot roast, for example. And your Mama's marinara. From braised beef to simmering soups, Contemporary Nonstick cookware is the perfect choice for slow-cooking. Constructed from heavy-gauge hard-anodized aluminum, it heats gently and evenly--allowing spices to meld and mellow and meats to turn "fork tender"--without sticking or scorching.
There are times when you barely have a minute to toss together soup and a sandwich. "Heat-and-eat" is the order of day. That's why Contemporary Nonstick includes pans of all shapes and sizes--for every day as well as entertaining. Your Short and Saucy pan is perfect for warming soups and sauces, cooking vegetables and much more.

Calphalon Contemporary Pasta Insert 
I have the Calphalon Contemporary pots and pans. This insert will only work for the Calphalon Contemporary collection. It is made extremely well and so nice to have the insert and the pot together so you don't have to get a separate stainer out from the cabinet while preparing pasta. I love it and use it often.
Great Cooking Gear
My wife and I first purchased Calphalon Contemporary Nostick cooking gear about a year ago. We both love them. Not only do they cook evenly and quickly, but they are easy to handle & store. Additionally, clean up is easier then anything we have previously owned.
We purchased some additinal items through Amazon, and received them in less than 5 working days. We are thoroughly impressed with both Calphalon and Amazon.
Great, but...
I needed a saucepan to cook oatmeal in that would let go on the bits that stick to the bottom. Sounds silly, but I love oatmeal and hate cleaning the pan afterwards. This cleans up easily and cooks evenly. I have used it for cooking rice, gravies and other foods that seem to stick and it always cleans up well. Now, for the lid. There is a black band on the inside of the lid and it scrubed off one night recently. I sat down, wrote an email to the company and by the next day, they have a new lid on the way. They asked only where to send it, nothing else. I like companies that stand by the product they sell. So, if you are going to buy from this line, check that black band, it should be between the glass and the metal, not on the inside of the lid. If you have a problem with the product, ALWAYS notify the manufacturer, they will almost always make it right, like Calphalon did for me.
