Is the lid oven safe to 500 degrees also? How high of a temp have you used the lid in the oven?

No. I haven't used it in the oven. It would say in the care instructions if it is oven safe . Sorry;( I couldn't help you.

I'm sorry to just now answering this question, but I am happy to give my opinion. I did not buy this lid to use in the oven. I only use my Lodge Cast Iron Dutch Oven lids in the oven. I use this lid to cover things I am cooking on top of the stove so I can see thru the lid. However, if I were planning to use it in the oven I would not exceed the suggested temperature which I believe is 400. I would like to add that I have several tempered glass lids and this one by Lodge is far better than any of the others. The one by Lodge is designed where it DOES NOT hold water so it is not necessary to unscrew the lid and drain the water when washing it. Now that's my kind of lid and I USE IT OFTEN!

Disclaimer - I have not used it in the oven. The handles are have a rubber or possibly silicone coating. Best move is to check with Calphalon to see what they recommend. For oven use I would look for a pan with an all metal handle. Calphalon marks it as oven safe to 400F http://store.calphalon.com/simply-calphalon-nonstick-12-in-everyday-pan/298884

Yes the pan should be fine @ 500 degrees. I use mine @ 475 degrees. It's a solid heavy pan. Made to last years and years!

Depends on what you are baking or cooking. My oven goes as high as 500 degrees.

The metal pans are oven safe to 500 degrees, but the glass lids are only safe to 350 degrees.

I have gone from stovetop to a 500 degree oven several times with no problems whatsoever. I do handwash though, I've never put it in the dishwasher.

I have put these into the oven to finish whatever I am cooking. I have never gone above 400 degrees though.

Yes. The pans are safe up to 500 degrees and the lids 450 degrees. I've put my calphalon pans in the oven many times. The pan does come with care instructions . Hope this info helps

Yes the entire pan is oven proof up to 450 degrees. Absolutely love this pan. The non-stick is the best I have ever used. Keep the heat medium high that is plenty high to brown anything. Wash with hot water and wash cloth or non-scratch pad.

I have not baked at 500 degrees but I have been cooking for almost sixty years and in the past I used Dutch oven over a open fire and this is the closest I have gotten to the old style. So I truly believe it will handle 500 degrees with no problem.

I've used it in the oven at 450 degrees, and we've also used it on the grill probably closer to 500 degrees. It is great, and I've had mine for years. It got discolored on the grill, but still is a champ.

Yes lids are oven proof to 500 F. (Lids with rubber handle oven proof to 350 F)

Have used it in 425 oven and it was fine. Have not tryed it any higher temperature. Completely happy with it.

you would need to ask the company. I cannot think of a recipe needing temps higher than 500 degrees.......at least none I use

I have never removed the lid from the canister. That said, I see some comments indicating the lid will melt. That hasn't happened to mine yet - but I only put it in the oven at 250 degrees. I usually turn the oven on, put the canister in, let it go at 250 for a while, then turn the oven off and leave it in there overnight.

I would assume it is safe to use at that high of a temperature. Just make certain you remove the plastic lid as that is NOT oven safe.
