Both items looked great out of the box. After a careful inspection, I noticed a small “rusty” stain on the non-stick side of the large pan, but didn’t consider it a big deal. The smaller pan looked Ok, however, after using it only twice, it showed a small “bubble/chip” on the non-stick side (picture attached). This chip seems to deep enough to suggest it is a result of a manufacturing / quality defect. It also give the impression it will continue peeling off with every use. Certainly, I’m not happy at all with these items, and will like to get Calphalon’s feedback regarding my options?
I also recently purchased the 10 pcs S/S Premier set and so far I’m very pleased with these.
