Emeril Hard Anodized Nonstick 11-Inch Square Griddle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After I ordered this griddle from Amazon, I read reviews of Emeril cookware, and was really scared. It seems the bottom of pans *melt*! It was too late to cancel my order (in this case Amazon sent my order through immediately), so when the griddle arrived, I tried it out right away. It worked great and was totally non-stick.

I concluded that the griddles are made differently than the pans, since they're one layer of anodized metal and don't melt like the pans do which have layers of different metals on the bottom. So no one needs to avoid buying this griddle. I compared the quality with griddles at Walmart, and it's heavier and of better quality. The griddle heats up fast and cooked my pancakes quickly, so there's no need to use high heat for cooking.

The instructions that came with the griddle did warn against melting aluminium, but I doubt that those instructions apply to the hard anodized griddles. Perhaps because of poor reviews of Emeril cookware, this griddle was heavily discounted, so the price was excellent, about 50 percent off list price.

I did some research and found the quote below about anodizing, so there's no worry about high heat with this griddle:

"Hard anodizing produces an extremely durable pan that has twice the hardness of stainless steel. This cookware has an extremely long lifespan and can resist abrasion and corrosion. The surface will not chip or peel and it can handle extremely high heat levels without damage to the finish."

Eastman Outdoors 37203 22-inch Deep-Dish Stainless Steel Wok Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you are a caterer or own a restaurant,then you probably can effectively use the 22" wok. I loved the idea of a huge wok, but failed to anticipate the challenges it brings:
1. I couldn't season it in a standard oven. I had to resort to using the burner to season it by turning it. It was a laborious experience.
2. I can't easily clean it in a standard sink. Good thing I'm cooking next to the hose.

Get the 18", or search Amazon for "Wok Shop" and get a 14" or 16".

(More customer reviews)The cups a great for soups and other dining liquids. The bowls are Great also. I take care of my 82 year old grandmother & she just love how she can take a can of soup and poor it into the cup, cook it in the microwave then what she does not finish she can up the lid on and put it in the refrigerator. When she wants it again just take out of the frig. and put it directly in the microwave. Clean up is good also only on problem with them and that would be the lids.

Calphalon One Nonstick 11-Inch Square Griddle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We've had this griddle for a couple of years now. The surface has turned somewhat dark and the non-stick surface is not quite non-stick any longer.

Someone had told me that using canola spray oils (like Pam) can cause a sticky buildup on non-stick surfaces which are difficult to come off and then end up burning on and ruining a surface like the Calphalon.I really don't know if it's true or if the pan has just lost its non-stick properties over time.The ONLY non-stick cookware we've ever purchased which has not ever lost its non-stick surface after a few years are some high end ("expensive") stuff we bought at Costco from one of their traveling road shows.

But I contacted Calphalon. They said they the cookware has a lifetime warranty and all we have to do is pay shipping to send in the pan and they will replace it free.

What REALLY disturbs me about this pan is that it slides over the stove top grates.This may not be a problem on glass cooktops but on the standard ceramic type grates that came with our GE Profile gas oven/cooktop, this griddle is the ONLY one of our pans that slides around. I consider that potentially dangerous.

I would spend the money to ship back and replace, but I certainly would not one new again.

Calphalon C1210P Commercial Nonstick 10-Inch International Griddle/Crepe Pan Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have upgraded my rating after using the pan every day for a month.I am giving it five stars because it is a tremendous value.I was too critical in my initial review.
This is my first Calphalon pan. I purchased it primarily to use as an egg and breakfast fare pan. I wanted a good non-stick pan, because most of my other pans are stainless steel.
I consider it a very good buy for the price. It has a very attractive design and the interior non-stick cooking surface appears to be very durable. However, the pan is slightly heavy and slow to reach the proper temperature compared to stainless steel. The manufacturer's enclosed brochure says the slow warm-up is due to the non-stick surface (true of most non-stick pans). Once it arrives at the required temperature, it performs very well. This aluminum pan is the equivalent of a permanently seasoned cast iron griddle. It produces foolproof omelets and the food never sticks.I use it to warmup chicken breasts and make grilled sandwiches too.It is the most used pan in the house, because of my passion for eggs.
This product, like a few other Calphalon products I have examined, slipped past the quality control inspector. On my pan there is an interior area, smaller than a grain of rice, that was not sprayed with the non-stick coating. It is high enough on the pan where no one will ever cook on that spot, but it is there in plain sight. The lack of quality control may have something to do with the Calphalon pans being manufactured in third world countries - no offense intended. This pan is made in China.You would probably not have any trouble forgiving the stray blemish.Especially, when you consider this pan's beauty, functionality, and price.
Here is my list of PROS and CONS for this purchase.
PROS:
- Good price.
- Excellent non-stick surface - appears to be very durable too.
- Excellent stain resistant exterior.
- Cool & comfortable handle.
- Attractive appearance.
- Lifetime warranty.
CONS:
- Slow to warm up, because of the non-stick surface.
- Fairly heavy pan - you won't flip anything without a spatula - think griddle.
- Quality control at Calphalon could be better.
- The handle is beautiful, but the finish on the handle and rivets are not as refined as some of the more expensive cookware brands. However, it has no impact on the cooking.
Conclusion:Excellent pan for the price.
