This is my second hard-anodized Calphalon set for a reason! The first one lasted a solid 10 years but as expected, they started to show scrapeswear so I needed to replace it. They’re really good quality and the price is unbeatable! Their warranty service is also great! So don’t let yourself be fooled by other manufacturer’s warranty. I read bad things about their competitors and that’s why I’m sticking with Calphalon (unless they disappoint me!).
