Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had one of these for several years and it finally got so bad I wanted to replace it. The no-name cheaper griddles always warp - I love it when I crack an egg on a warped griddle and it slides into the corner! Anyway, I ordered this new Calphalon griddle it was exactly the same size, shape, same handle, and even had the same P/N on the back. However, I immediately noticed the metal was much thinner than my earlier one. I weighed them both and sure enough the new one was several pounds lighter. Well after only a few uses the pan is now warped as bad as the $8 pans you can get anywhere. A straight edge placed on the back shows almost a 1/8" bow in the center. It's really a shame that name brand companies feel the need to cheapen their products, unless of course this was a cleverly packaged knock off -- it didn't look like one. I won't be buying this one again.
