I have used Calphalon products before and they haven't failed me yet, so I was excited when I got the beautiful Calphalon Classic™ Hard-Anodized Nonstick 14-Piece Cookware Set with NEW improved Aquashield™ nonstick technology. I love that they say it keeps pans performing like new(40% longer) because my last set pot and pan set didn't last as long as I thought it would. 

I love the measuring marks, straining covers, and pour spouts. My oldest likes to cook and he said that helps him a lot. The handles have a stay-cool silicone comfort-grip that provides comfort and heat resistance when cooking on the stovetop, pots and pans are oven-safe up to 400 degrees F.
