Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick Dutch Oven, 8.5-quart, Black

Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick is now dishwasher safe for easy cleanup, featuring a multi-layer nonstick coating for ultimate durability. The sleek, modern design adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen, while the heavy-gauge, hard-anodized aluminum ensures even heating. This spacious Dutch Oven is perfect for large families or hosting gatherings. It is great for simmering sauces, soups, and stews, as well as for preparing pot roasts, casseroles, and baked pasta dishes. It seamlessly transitions from stovetop to oven for added convenience.

Constructed with heavy-gauge aluminum, this Dutch Oven guarantees even heat distribution and is hard-anodized for long-lasting durability. The interior boasts three layers of nonstick coating - two layers provide strength, while the third layer ensures easy food release. The long brushed stainless steel handles are designed to stay cool while cooking on the stovetop. Both the pans and covers are oven-safe, making them perfect for putting the finishing touches on a gourmet meal.

The luxurious exterior color is not just a surface coating; it is a result of the aluminum's transformation during hard-anodization, creating a dishwasher-safe color that is fully integrated and resistant to chipping, cracking, or peeling. The nonstick surface allows for healthier cooking with less oil, and cleanup is a breeze. Plus, it comes with Calphalon's full lifetime warranty for added peace of mind.
