Customer Reviews of Simply Calphalon Nonstick Collector's Edition 16-Inch Roaster with Rack
Great Value for the Price This was my first venture into the "Simply Calphalon" line and I have been quite pleased with the pan. While it is not as thick as the rest of my commercial Calphalon bakeware, it has been thick enough to ensure even baking and good results. The lack of thickness and heavy weight also has a nice side benefit of making it easier to handle. The larger commercial pans weigh a ton, and especially when you have a large roast or a turkey, become very difficult to handle. While not light as a feather, there is a noticeable difference that makes the stress on your wrists a lot less.
The nonstick finish is nice and has put up with a lot of abuse. (I keep catching my husband using improper utensils in it and it still hasn't a single scratch or scuff.) While browning is a bit trickier in the oven with a non-stick pan, the easy clean up more than makes up for a little bit lighter gravy or sauce. The outside of the pan is harder to clean and there are a few stubborn greasy stains that I have not been able to remove.
I love the handles and they are a vast improvement over all of the other roasting pans I have and are very user friendly. The pan is very well-balanced and easy to lift by the handles.
The only thing I wish the pan came with is a v-shaped roasting rack instead of or in place of the flat rack. My medium v-shaped rack does fit into the pan, but it is a very tight fit and is a real pain to remove from the pan.
We have used this pan at least 50 times in our test kitchen at a variety of temperatures and have never had a problem with buckling or warping.
A Poor Value at Any Price
When I first received this roasting pan I was struck at how thin it really was. Anyone who's used to the heft and solidity of Calphalon, or even the moderate substance of Simply Calphalon pots and pans, will see a big contrast here. To put it in context, if you imagine what a standard half sheet pan looks and feels like, this is about half as thick.
Although I was surprised, I wasn't really that concerned. After all, thickness isn't the number one concern with a piece that's meant to spend most of it's time in the oven; and for the price I paid I wasn't expecting restaurant quality. However, when I used it in the oven it warped terribly. Although I didn't measure it, I would say that the corner bent up a good inch off the cutting board I placed it on after taking it out of the oven. However, since the pan is really very thin, I was able to bend it back into reasonable shape with very little effort, although I doubt that it will stay in this position.
The next time I buy a roasting pan I'll make sure it's at least 4mm thick.
