MineralShield nonstick (PTFE) on hard-anodized aluminum cooking surface · Cookware set
Calphalon Premier Hard-Anodized Nonstick 11-piece set
6 pots and pans and 5 lids, for frying, sauces, one-pan meals and soup or pasta, all with a nonstick surface for eggs. That covers all four everyday cooking jobs.
Induction compatibility is not listed. Choose a confirmed induction option if that is your cooktop. The maker gives no oven limit for the lids, so covered oven cooking is not confirmed.

What is included
Six pans and five glass lids: 10- and 12-inch frying pans, the 12-inch with a lid, 1.5- and 2.5-quart saucepans, a 3-quart sauté pan and an 8-quart stockpot. Calphalon’s MineralShield nonstick, a three-layer PTFE coating, on hard-anodized aluminum. Calphalon says it takes metal utensils, goes in the dishwasher and in the oven to 450°F, but not under the broiler, and gives a lifetime warranty. It lists gas, electric and glass stoves, not induction, and gives no figure for the glass lids. There is no small pan for eggs; the 10-inch is the smallest.
