Calphalon Ceramic Nonstick 12-piece set, Silver Ash

6 pots and pans and 4 lids, for frying, sauces and soup or pasta, all with a nonstick surface for eggs. It still leaves you without a pan for one-pan meals.

Induction compatibility is not listed. Choose a confirmed induction option if that is your cooktop.

What is included

Six pans, four glass lids and two trivets: 8-, 10- and 12-inch frying pans, the 12-inch with a lid, 1.5- and 2.5-quart saucepans and a 5-quart Dutch oven. Ceramic nonstick on aluminum, made without PFAS, Calphalon says. Pans and glass lids go in the oven to 450°F, and Calphalon’s care list allows the broiler. It takes metal utensils and goes in the dishwasher, though Calphalon recommends washing it by hand. It lists gas, electric and glass stoves, not induction. A 10-year limited warranty, shorter than Calphalon gives its Premier sets. It still leaves you without a sauté pan; the 5-quart Dutch oven does the braising.

The size a pan is sold as is not the width of its flat base. Why the difference matters.
