A rare shopping tip

Despite my distaste for consumerism... I feel compelled to pass on that Calphalon is discontinuing their commercial nonstick line, which means that you can pick up their very fine, heavy duty 12" omelet pan at Amazon for $29.99, down from $115.

So, would you recommend Calphalon to someone who was wishing to replace some very old “now mostly stick” non-stick cookware? I know the stuff is expensive…but is it any good?

I'd say so -- again, especially for $30.
1) All aluminum, for even heating
2) great, durable nonstick surface
3) lifetime guarantee, as long as you haven't obviously abused it (no dishwasher! never in the dishwasher!)

4) Heavy weight -- I've never had one warp on me, whereas I've had cheap ones warp immediately.
