Calphalon Commercial Nonstick 10-Inch International Griddle/Crepe Pan

This is a great pan, when it is new. However, after a couple of years the teflon will start to flake, and everything will stick, at this point it is useless. Might I suggest the Scanpan Classic Ceramic Titanium 10-Inch Crepe Pan, it is more expensive but it will last much longer, and you will not need to handle it with kid gloves.

Finally, the perfect pan. It performs like advertised, imagine that. I couldn't be happier be with my new kitchen necessity than I am with my Calphalon pan. What a great product. I am glad my husband found it on Amazon.

I was intimidated by the thought of making crepes until I got this fabulous pan!! Now I feel like a master chef, my crepes are perfectly cooked, evenly colored, lovely and tender. My husband would like it if I made them every day. (Good luck with that!!) This is an excellent pan, heavy enough to heat evenly, nice length to the handle and the crepes turn easily and slide right off when they are done!

I originally bought this pan while looking for a good crepe pan. Having experienced good quality from Calphalon before, I was happy to see this pan at such a low price. I have a large griddle that has served me well for several years now, but I decided to try this pan out for something other than crepes once, and it worked wonders! This is now my go-to pan for a number of dishes and it holds up under multiple uses daily. Ideal for: - Crepes (make sure you have an offset spatula to reach under it despite the fairly high sides) - Pancakes - Burger patties - Omelettes - Taco tortillas - Quesadillas - French toast Pros: - Excellent non-stick coating, everything slides off easily and the coating itself is very durable - Heats up faster than most non-stick pans - Even cooking across the bottom surface - Quick and easy to clean - Requires no or very little oil due to the quality of the non-stick coating - Cool grip and durable handle (doesn't become loose with long-term use) - Lifetime product warranty and Amazon shipping coverage - Great price for a quality product Cons: - As a non-stick pan, it still heats up slower than bare stainless or anodized aluminum and doesn't produce as crisp a surface - Handle is a little thin, making it uncomfortable to lift - Pan is slightly heavy to begin with, but this weight is actually good for the even cooking (personally, it's worth it) - Pan lip is a bit high and sharply angled for a crepe pan, necessitating an offset spatula (this is good for omelettes and french toast though) - Outer anodized aluminum surface stains easily on electric burners (but this does not affect cooking) - As a non-stick pan, you should only use plastic/nylon or other soft cooking tools with it, and you may expose food to harmful chemicals Overall: A versatile and quality product at a good price.

I am a single guy and I have used this for the last 5 years in my "kitchen": cook everything in it since it fits my portion sizes...from eggs and sausage in the AM, to fish and veggies for my dinner. Absolutely amazing - the non-stick has not eroded at all, and the poor thing has gone through some serious abuse. I cook on high heat a lot, and it does a much better handling that than my Cuisinart non-sticks. The price, the quality, the durability of the non-stick: you can't beat this!

This Splendiferous Pan has served me for over a year now. I purchased three pans for personal use in my home gourmet kitchen. I then purchased another 5 pans as gifts and one as a reserve to replace a pan that may fail. These pans make a great gift for a new bride who will practice making great omelets, or for the seasoned home cook to prepare sauteed dishes for 2 to 4 people. This is a multi-purpose pan. I did attempt to prepare dessert crepes( a Julia Child recipe) and discovered this pan is best for omeletes and other products, not crepes. Because of its weight and quality I have given this product 5 stars. If I had to classify it as a crepe pan, I'd have to give it 3 or 2 stars, simply because of the inability of this pan to keep the crepe from sticking to its surface. I have rated this pan with 5 stars because of its diversity. I do care for the pan by placing a cardboard separator between each pan. I also rotate the pans so that each lasts longer than those who have rated their pan with a less than satisfactory rating. I believe rotating the use of this pan extends the use, as well as the pans' life, for the frugal home gourmet chef.

I needed a pan primarily for making eggs. This had such great reviews, so I got it. Oh man, is it ever amazing. I've had non-stick pans before, but this one is legitimately non-stick. I drop an egg in there. When it's done, it slides right out of the pan, leaving no trace behind. The pan is so clean, you might not realize it's been used. Fantastic.

Like other nonstick cookware buyers, my memories of bad nonstick cookware made me weary of buying more nonstick - as everything sticks! I threw out calphalon one, emeril, all clad (really dinged my wallet) - you name it! But to my surprise and DELIGHT, this little griddle/crepe pan works terrific! Food sears, cooks, and releases with no effort. Good weight in your hand. It is a bit on the small side, so if you want to make an omelette for 4 or more people, this would not be for you - unless you wanted to make additional omelettes in a row. The sides are a bit low (approx 1") so no high concentrations of sauces is recommended or you'll have splashes to clean up. Clean up is a breeze with soap and hot water. Amazon packaged it securely so no scratches or dings to the nonstick coating. You won't regret buying it.

I just opened the box containing this pan. It smells awful and has a nasty metallic powder all over it. I'll have to think about keeping this pan. Made in China

It is a superior cookware and you can not beat the price. I purchased an other one to make omelet.
