We purchased this cookware set in early 2007 and it is still holding up well.  One thing to note though is that as cooks we are just now getting used to the fact of the Calphalon Commerical Hard Anodized 9-piece Cookware Set not having non-stick capabilities.  Most people are used to Teflon cookware with non-stick characteristics like we were.  That said we are grateful since there are rumors of teflon products possibly causing a form of cancer.  What’s more is that the food tastes much better cooked from this 9 piece Calphalon set.  The non stick issues can be cured with a sufficient amount of olive oil anyway.

You do not machine wash this set; read the instructions for care.  Another factor is that Calphalon cookware distributes heat more evenly.  You learn to cook with more patience and on lower temperatures; if the temp is too high then you will be dealing with the food sticking.  If you slow cook, the food will turn out nice and tasty, and come right off.

Hand wash these and note when putting them away that the only thing that will ruin the anodized cookware is stacking them on top of each other thus rubbing together and causing problems.

The Calphalon Anodized 9piece cookware set changes in price all the time at places like Amazon.  This can be said for most cookware.  This set was running for 492$ list but has since gone all the way down to 159$.  There are some Calphalon Anodized 9 piece cookware sets for even less (auctions ending in the low 100′s$) or you can just get Calphalon cookware singularly if you need just a skillet for example.

Cuisinart’s Chef’s 17 piece collection is on sale today for 250$, normally 670$. This is stainless steel, dishwasher safe and with great finish. Possibly the best deal for a Cuisinart cookware set would be the 75% you save on the 14 piece cuisinart cookware set – normally 540$ but on sale for 140$!

Some of Cuisinart’s newer work includes the 12-piece Multiclad Pro Series where you can save over 50%. This set has gotten perfect reviews at amazon – it provides the quality of stainless steel but has aluminum properties as well for perfect heat distribution.

If you decide to go the KitchenAid route you can’t go wrong with their 12 piece gourmet essentials cookware set, in their classic empire red. Nonstick surface with the balance needed for ideal distribution of heat.

KitchenAid has a top of the line Five-Ply 9-Piece Clad Style cookware set that matches Cuisinart’s. Normally 855$ you save nearly 600$ buying this now from amazon! Don’t forget FREE SHIPPING. The reviews are pretty resounding in their defense of KitchenAid’s Clad style set compared to other competitors like All Clad’s 9 piece stainless steel set which is still at 570$.

One thing to keep in mind with all these great cookware sets…since most of them are stainless steel you’ll want to take good care of them. You will need to use powder like Bon Ami to clean.
