Hard-Anodized Nonstick 5-Qt. Sauté Pan with Lid

Love this pan. By no means am I a pro chef, but this pan sure helps get pro results. It heats evenly and hot spots are not an issue. The depth is great for limiting splatter. Cleaning is a breeze and the pan feels sturdy. Very versatile and a must have in your kitchen.

I love this pan. Nice and big. Heavy so it doesn't warp. Non-stick is great.

I love this pan. We use it daily and leave it on the stovetop even when not cooking. I don’t use anything else, unless it’s the holidays and I have multiple dishes going. (I also have the curved bottom with a lid, which is even a tad bigger but also heavier…so this one is better for daily use) Good size/weight/quality/price ratios.

only large Calphalon that I could find with lid, worked out in my favor. I like the size and the extra handle. no problems :}

Great product. Great purchase. Easy to clean. My go to skillet. Would buy again.

Very disappointed. Nice finish inside but the bottom of the pan bulges outward making it rock on the burner and heat unevenly

Works well but is not flush/flat on the bottom

This is a nice quality pan. Size is great for so many things. Especially if you like to freeze leftovers. Like Sauces, or meats, meal preps, even chili in this pan. The sides are straight up so everything is cooking evenly. Nice clear heavy duty lid allows you to monitor the inside contents. Non stick and cleans with ease. Youll want to take good care of this pan bc its easy to. I highly recommend this pan. Its my second one like it! Excellent pan. Fantastic BF value. Arrived w/o issue! My family is thankful.

Solid pan. With lid it's fairly hefty but the looped handle opposite the regular handle makes it easy to lift. Bottom is very flat for use on a smooth electric cooktop. Holds heat well and heats evenly. Good seal from the hefty glass lid (glass lid is great) and cleans up easily.

Excellent

This sauté pan bottom warped. I bought the Calphalon Hard Anodized 5 quart sauté pan, after discovering it at a vacation home I had stayed in for a month. The house owner told me she stocked the Calphalon Hard Anodized cookware. I so much loved using this particular 5 quart sauté pan there, that I immediately ordered the identical one upon returning home in February 2025. Upon receiving the pan in March, I initially loved it and it performed extremely well. I was using it on average once per week since March. I was always attentive to use care when cooking with it, cleaning it, and storing it - because I liked this pan so much. I have never used it on a stove heat setting past medium. I washed it in dishwasher (as it says it is dishwasher safe). A month or two ago I noticed it was now no longer sitting flat on my flat top stove (pan slightly “rocking”), but when looking at the bottom of pan I could see no obvious warping. Since then, each time I use it, the pan bottom rocks even more, to the point that olive oil will now not sit evenly in the pan and the oil all drains to one side. Because the pan will no longer sit flat on the stove, it is very tippy so does not feel stable - in that when stirring or turning over food in the pan, the pan will not stay in place on the flat top burner, and moves all over stove (a potential hazard). The pan, when placed on my granite counter top, also no longer sits flat and does the same rocking motion. So the issue is the pan, not the stove top. The one I had used in the vacation rental home, had been in that house for at least two years, and performed perfectly without having this issue. Therefore, I had expected mine to do the same. I am very disappointed because this pan is not cheap ($135) and because it is long past the one month return window with Amazon, I am left with no option to be able to exchange it. So sadly, I can not recommend this pan.

When I first purchased this pan I was very happy with it! It cooks food evenly, is lightweight and cleans very easily. About 7 months into using it I noticed the pan starting to warp. I am still using the pan but it doesn’t sit flat on the stove, causing oil to pool and food to cook unevenly. I expect the pan to continue warping to a point where I’ll have the replace it in less than a year after purchasing it. Therefore, I don’t recommend buying this pan. Spend a bit more and get something better.
