This 2.5 quart pan is the perfect size for pasta or sauces. The handle does not get hot like many other brands. Non stick surface makes it great to sauté things if you need to before adding other things for soups or sauces. I would definitely recommend this brand.

So this is definitely a very well made pan, great quality and durability for cooking. Very easy to clean and cook with. I love the lid is see thru so you can see how your food is cooking. The only downfall for me was whether cooking with it on top of the stove or in the stove, the handle of the pot itself and the handle on the lid do get very hot and you need to use a potholder or something for handling so you don’t burn your hand. Other than that it’s great!!

This saucepan is perfect. It’s non-stick, dishwasher safe, just the right size and comes with a lid. When I first got this pan, I thought it looked smaller than my old saucepan, but I filled with water and dumped into my other pan and it’s exactly the same volume, so awesome, because anything smaller is too small for my needs. Nothing has been sticking and it cleans up is a breeze. It’s not too heavy either, it’s also not too lightweight. I won’t use my old saucepans anymore. Highly recommend.

I bought this sauce pan not only because I have heard good things about the brand, but also because I didn’t own one of this size. So far we have used it a few times and have put it through the dishwasher a few times. It is still like new, and works amazing. We have not had any issues with stuff sticking, they are definitely non stick. The pot seems very heavy in your hand in a good way of course and it is actually cute! I know looks probably don’t matter much to most people, but I love the look of it! I would definitely buy this again!

This pot is amazing! It is heavy and good quality. The handle is long and easy to grip. It is nonstick and that making cooking and cleaning easy. I can’t wait to add more Calphalon pans to my kitchen.

I am super happy with this Calphalon sauce pan. It comes with a flat glass lid that stacks easily for storage and it’s safe to use metal utensil on its 3 layers of nonstick surface. I love how evenly it cooks and even better how easy it is to clean! This is my 2nd Calphalon pan and I see more in the future!

Cooks evenly at differing temperatures. The coating is even and substantial. The Skillet is deep enough not to have any spillage and the cover keep any spitting sauce from getting out. This pan is one of those pans that will not disappoint you. Great size, great look, easy to clean. Amazing! Looks great, Performs well!Note: Things don’t stick if you allow the cookware to warm up slowly before adding food. I never wash them in the dishwasher, nor do I put them in cold water when they are hot.

I had been wanting to get a pot a little bigger than the one I normally use. Well the Calphalon Premier Nonstick 2.5-Qt. Sauce Pan is perfect. It gives me the room in the pot that I was looking for. It is the perfect size for cooking asparagus. I love the no stick and dishwasher safe. When making macaroni and cheese it slides right out of the pan. This has become my go to pot! The best thing of all is that it is made in the USA!

Once I got it opened and did a quick wash, I used it instantly. It’s larger than it sounds at 2.5 qts. plenty of room to stir stuff. Heavy duty non-stick with easy to hold handle helps to cook quickly. Heats up fast also requires less oil. I love how big and sturdy this sauce pan is. I also really like that it is dishwasher safe.

I bought this a month ago and I love it. It’s great with the nonstick and easy to clean. It’s big enough to cook many things. The lid fits perfect and it has a whole for the steam . I would recommend this to everyone. The handle is a good size so you can pick it up without a problem.

Just received 2.5 quart Premier from Calphalon as a replacement of a discontinued 2-qt under lifetime warranty (excellent service!!!). I think the dimensions are important for us to make our purchase decision so just post them here. The dimensions given by their service dept. were 4.9″ H x 11.25″ outer diameter, same as I got from other websites. The actual dimensions measured are totally different: about 3 3/8″ H x 8 1/2″ outer opening rim diameter. Also, the flat bottom is made slightly concave up (center does not touch the smooth top), not really flat. We still love it!! They give free replacement if it is ever damaged over years of use (and in my case a free upgrade).

I love this sauce pan. It is a smaller size than I have ever had but it’s so useful! I love the features. It has a nonstick handle, glass top, and can be used with metal utensils — even on the non-stick surface! Easy to clean. Love it!

I’m in love with this pan. I am 42 years old and have been cooking for quite a while now. I love to cook and is very familiar with good pots and pans. This pot thus far is the best I’ve ever used In my lifetime. I recently used it to make some Caribbean beef stew. The beef tender very tender which I wanted. Also surprisingly nothing that stuck to the pan. I use a lot of fresh seasoning example peppers, onions ETC , In App Store you nothing that stuck to the pan after use. This pan is thick and heavy just like your grandma’s old pans.It was very easy to clean. It looks perfect ,perfect enough to give it as a gift for a special occasion. Cook time is a little bit shorter as this pan cooks a little bit faster than your regular pans. I would definitely recommend this saucepan.

This has by far been one of the best sauce pans I have ever used. It doesn’t stick at all when making sauces with cheese or even caramel. Its very easy to clean. If I wanted to I could just wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Its light weight and easy to hold. Clean up from any type of cooking in this was a breeze. It seemed like it made cooking fun again because I can melt candies or cheese without it burning or scorching. I am very happy with the pot. I think I will buy big ones to go with this one.

I love the size of this pan! It is perfect to just make a meal for two or three of us. I feel like it is very well made and does not scratch at all. It is non-stick and washes well in the dishwasher. I feel like this is a great addition to my pots to cook quick dinners in that are right sized for my family.

I love the quality of this saucepan. It is heavy, durable, strong glass lid with a good fit and a hearty handle. The only thing I would’ve like different is it is a bit wide. This is a true saucepan more than it is a pot.
