I've completely given up on non-stick, so no advice here. As a matter of fact, got two new steel skillets and a steel wok delivered today. Season, don't abuse, and they are as non-stick as just about anything. How did you season them? Rub olive oil on them and put them in a 200 degree oven. You’ve done it now.

Looking to replace a couple non stick pans. Anyone have good experience with quality/durable non stick pans? Not interested in cast iron so this isn’t the what this thread is for. After reading this opening, I wonder just how long it will take for the first one to show up. Update - Now that I've read the thread, it actually took a little longer than I had expected.

All Clad makes some very good stuff. Their Cop R Chef line is extremely good, but pricey. We have had several, for many years, they get used a lot, still work like new, and look good.

My brother has one of those copper ceramic pans and loves it.
We have some stainless ones, with an aluminum disc clad in stainless on the bottom, that used properly are nearly non -stick.
Have on small tramontina or circulon pan the wife likes and I use on occasion. Held up pretty good, but if my wife didn't like it so much it would get replaced.
I might like to give the steel ones like Dutch one day. Woks work really well once seasoned properly, can't see why a fry pan of the same construction wouldn't.
Good luck,
Geno

Season, don't abuse, and they are as non-stick as just about anything. How did you season them? I have no magic to offer. I remove the oil they are shipped with, and then use whatever oil I use to cook with (olive oil for skillets, peanut oil for woks) and just heat them up on the stove top. Cool them, wipe out the oil again. Start using them. Never use soap. Hot water if necessary, but immediately oil again before putting them away. I've cooked with the wok for 35 years, at least weekly, and nothing sticks. My steel (NOT cast iron!) fry pan makes my eggs most mornings with a little olive oil, and they slide right out. It's going on 10 years now, and just gets better. Volrath pan at Webrestaurantstore.com. $25 or so.

Warning: to protect the delicate non-stick surface, keep out of the reach of females. You are so correct it is like you've met my wife and daughter.

Got Granitestone diamond something and it has been better than the copper, teflon and all so far. They claim it will stand an oven and steel spatula, but not a sharp knife. Haven't tried that yet. 10 inch 20 bucks at Walmart. Will probably go for the 12 inch later. I didnt find a lid though but have one from a stainless set that works With a little effort you can get anything to stick

I love the campfire... you ask about non-stick, and get told cast iron. An no, all non-stick are not the same.
I've been around professional kitchens, and for their non-stick needs many use Tramontina. USA made, and fantastic. I have a 12" and love it.
In Idaho, Alpo/tater hash doesnt stick to cast-arn above 6500ft. Especially of youve seasoned your pan with pabst blue ribbon and tuna oil.

I mostly use cast iron but just bought a set of All-Clad fry pans. It's made in the USA and a lifetime warranty. Some of their line can get pricey. No complaints so far.

We could never get t fal to last. I can't get anything that's solid aluminum to last. They warp. But that one T Fal that has the stainless steel bottom hasn't.

I learned long ago I can't keep a cast iron skillet or a good carving knife from my wife's soapy cleanliness and dishwasher infatuation.
Just today I checked on my cast iron skillet hidden in the hunt box. Good to go.

They're probably not the best thing eva, but, I bought two copper colored 10" pans off an infomercial and they are slick SOBs. Thin enough I am hesitant to go too hot. Twenty bucks.
But really, cast iron is best, LOL.
