10 Cookware Brands You Should NEVER Buy (And Why)

I tested over 45 cookware collections and these are 10 brands you should never buy. It’s tempting to buy cookware from brands making bold claims in ads and infomercials. But, despite their clever marketing, many fail to perform as promised.

This is the way reviews should be! Concise, informative without distractions!

[@PrudentReviews]

Appreciate that! That's what I'm going for

[@WebGems]

[@conquerncam]

Simple all clad steel pan

[@richardgordon3306]

Good reviews short and sweet, I use my old cast iron.

[@betsystone5733]

I have two blue diamond skillets. Three years and the nonstick is holding up without a scratch. Handwash only.

I actually love my Gotham steel pan, and that our place pan is kinda awkward, but it's not bad

[@MegaBe4m]

I own an Always Pan and I agree. It can always be skipped. Despite only using a wood spatula, scratches have appeared on the bottom. The handle was designed in two parts, intended to keep the grip cool, but the grip can still burn, "always" requiring a towel for handling. It's also easy to accidentally touch the hot side of the handle because of how it sticks out, I burned my thumb yesterday. The stainless steel liner provided with the pan is poorly designed, shallow, and prone to drying out ingredients. You will "always" need to lift the lid to add water, losing all your steam. It's rather decieving that you can do so many things with the always pan but if you're trying to cook properly you're better off just getting a non stick for less and use a different pot for steaming. Overall, there are better, more reliable cookware options available.

Fully agree with most of these, except for non stick pans, just get a cheap one and only use it for foods where it's really needed, otherwise use good quality cs, ci, or SS for basically everything as they last a lifetime.

So what SHOULD we buy???

Best Cookware Brands: These Pans Are Worth Buying

[@perryrice4149]

What is the best pen for restaurants. 🤔

[@MichaelFrederickPhoto]

I have been using All Clad N/S for about 2 years now and they are amazing. I got them at Homegoods for between $19-29, I have the 8-10-12in pans. Best NS I ever used!

[@PrudentReviews]

The aluminum nonstick or the stainless steel nonstick?

[@MichaelFrederickPhoto]

@@PrudentReviews the one in the video, the dark grey.

[@mathematics117]

My rachel rays have been great for the last 8 years, the rivets are kinda annoying but i find the handles really comfy and the lids arent really a deal breaker. Theyre just starting to loose some of the none sticky stuff tho

[@WERC-lawyer]

How do you rate Berghoff stainless steel pans?

[@NTxPomPs]

Can we please get a review of an amazing life long stainless pan that we should invest in . Or a suggestion in a comment Thanks

[@KPT437]

Made the mistake of buying all clad with non stick coating and regretted in 6months

[@erklaerbaer01]

you forgot hex clad

[@JunkboxSP]

Cast iron.

[@RobC1999]

Are you saying the Hestan titanium nanobond won’t last? Or that it costs too much?

[@CieCie]

He's talking about Hestan Titum, not Nanobond.

[@RobC1999]

@@CieCie makes sense. Thanks

[@sebeckley]

I've never understood why anyone bought until the Always pan hype. The bottom isn't even flat. It's a $20 pan.

[@markstuckless5039]

non stick all clad pans last forever because the only people who buy them never actually cook anything

[@paulking5199]

SENSUELL or Essteele for good prices for the quality.

[@steso8979]

Cast iron, all day
