The shape is nice, the design is good, but the thickness of the pan is very thin on the sides, but thicker on the bottom. Maybe somebody could argue that this puts the heavy metal on the bottom where it is useful and saves weight where it isn't needed, but I'm afraid that I'll dent this thing if I drop it or mishandle it by accident. The metal at the rim is only about 2mm or less I'd guess. I'm used to old heavy duty Calphalon commercial pots, so this one was a surprise... but it was also much less expensive than the ones I bought years ago, so since this isn't one of my workhorses but something I use when cooking for more people, I guess I'll live with it. It isn't a bad pan, it just has less material than you would expect if you have some of the older calphalon commercial stuff from years ago. I'd recommend it for someone in my situation, who needs a pot of this volume and shape for occasional use.

I have been purchasing the commercial line and this is the thinnest pot in the line (so far). The rivets are much smaller also. I am not impressed with this and would not recommend this item as I have the others in the commercial line.

I have a number of Calphalon H-A pieces. Some are high-end, others are from the lower priced lines. While I've always noticed the difference in quality in the lower priced pieces, I've considered that to be a trade-off for the reduced price. This dutch oven is a disappointment even by the lower standard. As other reviewers have mentioned, the pan is extremely thin. Worse, the first time I cooked in the pan the interior surface seemed to wear away leaving irregular, shiny marks. Other discounted pieces (especially the 12" everyday pan) hold up well over time, but this one seems to be a dud.As a side note, Calphalon is willing to examine any pan to determine if a replacement is warranted, but after shipping costs it's hardly worth the effort to send it in.
