Calphalon Premier Hard-Anodized Nonstick 8.5-Quart Dutch Oven with Lid

I finally was able to use my new Dutch oven - it's corned beef and cabbage time. The size was perfect, cleaning afterwards was a dream, but what I liked best is it is not heavy, I had no problem moving it when full (75 year old).I looked at other similar pans but even empty they weighed 15+lbs As with my other Calphelon pots and pans, I know it will last for years

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Calphalon Dutch oven came in a neatly packed box. It's 8.5 qt , so it's big. It comes with lid. The lid is glass with stainless steel rim . The handle is also stainless steel , so it will be easy to hold. The Dutch oven is made of hard anodized non stick. I have cooked biryani , curries for party and never had any problem with food sticking. For the size the weight doesn't seem heavy. Color and design looks elegant.The heat spreads evenly and uniformly. The Dutch oven and lid is dish wash safe. I love it and use for small gathering , if I have to cook for my daughters birthday or a small family get together. Great value for money and high quality.
