Pros
- If she wants the higher end stuff (IMO) (Calphalon or Le Creuset, for example), maybe consider one piece per year and build the set.
- I have an older Calphalon stockpot/pasta pot that's great, too, I see no need to upgrade from that.
- I had Calphalon for many years (non stick anodized) which have been great, but finally showing wear.
- I’ve had a set of calphalon stainless pans that have gotten almost daily use for more than 20 years and might as well be new.
- The longest running set I used that worked just fine when I didn't have the money I do now was Calphalon.
Cons
- I replaced my Calphalon with these and they are way better.
- Parent context: I bought a set of Calphalon Tri-Ply stainless many years ago and every piece has held up great. Reply: It was 20 years ago and it wasn't cheap. Eventually it buckled and became unusable. I bought one for my parents too an...
- I bought a Calphalon years ago and it didn't last that long. I still have the lid and use it with some of my Solodteknics skillets. Would not buy another one.

I just replaced a 25yr old set of Calphalon a few months ago.
