After cooking for more than 30 years I'd say forget all non-stick pans, get cast iron, carbon steel or stainless. Carbon steel and stainless steel are my favorites, I use them every day.

[@artyom108]

Strongly seconded. There’s a reason CS is standard in most commercial kitchens. They’re very inexpensive and are the most versatile category.

[@patrickhenigin4805]

I have never had a cast iron skillet that cooked as well as my mom's time tested skillet. I'm thinking it takes a few decades of seasoning to get that level of non-stick performance.

[@johnbeckmeyer1696]

Wow, 45 pans! Now that's dedication to a cause! I didn't see Caphalon in the pans you reviewed. I think their stainless steel pans are a decent weight, durable, have a good handle, and a useful second handle. What I didn't realize is that the interior of the Caphalon pan is relatively well polished and does not have a "brushed" appearance. This polished surface lends itself to a more non-stick performance and, most importantly, does not cause food to adhere - bonding itself into the scratches - so cleaning a polished pan is a lot easier than cleaning a brushed surface pan. We once had bought a set of All Clad stainless but found the cleanup to be really difficult because of the brushed/somewhat more textured cook surface. The amount of polishing the cooking surface has might be a good thing to check on your future reviews. Thanks for the comprehensive review!

[@Metal_Vistas]

I found this very useful, and I appreciate the rapid delivery of key bullet points coupled with links for those who want to delve deeper. Well done and thanks!

[@jc5495]

The point of the copper pans is to heat up fast and cool down fast. Its not designed to retain heat and should not be de merited. The point of copper is to be able to change quickly and thus why man people have trouble cooking with it because they are used to steel which retains its heat.

[@motorbreath22]

Maybe commercial burners have a better ability to utilize the advantages of coppers properties, perhaps more control of heat intensity and even gas distribution.

Would like to see you review Tramontina tri-ply stainless frying pans. I just bought a two pack, 10 and 12 inch frying pans, for $30. Not only low-priced, they cook great.

Well done! I have the Demeyere 7-ply frypan (9 in.) and 3.5 qt. saucier (very versatile). Excellent once you learn how to dial in the heat for non-stick cooking. Expensive but good value and with proper maintenance, you'll eventually pass them on.

[@seechangenyc280]

So helpful. The Demeyere Industry 11" fry pan is great. I wish it had a cover. Very good size cooking surface, which is why I prefer it over my 10" D3 (I bought it during a fab Zwilling sale). I now worry about rivetless handle!

I’ve had a big set of All Clad that I bought in 1999. Still perfect.

@@PrudentReviews I watched another review on frying pans and the person did test on how evenly they cooked and it seemed that a lot of them, including Made In, failed in this test. These pans tended to have more hot spots instead of evenly distributing the heat. It turned out that Granite Stone was one of the better ranked ones, though there were drawbacks for every pan that he tested. I do also wonder why you didn't test the Matfer Bourgeat Black Carbon Steel Fry Pan (9 1/2). That pan has been recommended by America's Test Kitchen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3Wui6NsbZp9m5Y It is also not as expensive as some of the others on your list and as long as the pan is cleaned properly and seasoned before it is used the first time, it will not stick, unlike some of the other pans you have suggested here.

[@rainsoakedpuppy]

I have lots of comments! Firstly, we recently got pet birds, and because of that I have been needing to do lots of research into alternatives to PTFE (teflon) nonstick. PTFE, when overheated, can off gas vapors that are generally harmless to adult humans, but can kill birds within minutes. So finding alternative nonstick, and learning to cook better with stainless, carbon steel, and cast iron is important. Videos like this really help. In regards to specific pans... goddamn that Stargazer is gorgeous. Also I absolutely despise the typical geometry found in carbon steel pans. You mention that for most pans you've tested, the percentage of flat cooking area to overall diameter is about 76%, but in the case of the Made-In (and almost all other carbon steel pans) the usable percentage is a bit under 73%. They feel crowded, no matter how big they say they are. I hate it! Also although we are trying to phase out nonstick skillets, I would definitely recommend checking out commercial nonstick skillets made by Tramontina and Winco. In spite of their generally low prices, I've found them to perform excellently and be widely available. Nonstick skillets are perishable, so their price should definitely reflect that.

[@pdfads]

I haven't tried a lot of pans, but the Demeyere Atlantis has been absolutely transformative for saute-ing.

[@ZebbMassiv]

My favorite pan..which I left behind in my last move was made by Martha Stewart. Thick stainless with a copper bottom and a silicone sleeved handle

[@HS-wp5vb]

Extremely concise review! Profound and convincing. I fully agree that price is not always a good indicator for either quality or performance. Despite the large number of pans tested, I sense some good products were left out. Tefal is an obvious choice for a medium-priced, well-made non-stick pan. No enamel-coated cast iron pan was tested at all. I love the Staub cast iron products. I also strongly recommend the Zwilling Pro stainless steel line. It is affordable and performs very well.

[@PrudentReviews]

There’s lots more to review, expect a part 2 at some point

[@HS-wp5vb]

@@PrudentReviews What amazes me is the willingness of some people to spend astronomous sums of money for comparably bad (if not entirely bad) products. There is a category of silliness in the American product market that seems to be solely based on hyperbole marketing. But people do fall for it. I wonder whether it is a lack of long-established brands in the upper tier of the market that people know and trust (such as All Clad).

I also love the handle and I don't find it hard to clean at all. Also the heat retention thing...I don't know how I could "tell"? Like, it's on the stove top, the stove is warming it continually. They say stove safe to 500, and I've chucked them into the oven with some regularity and been fine. Admittedly I am also quite lazy, and I usually put them in the dishwasher even though hand washing is "recommended." I don't find stuff still lingering in the handle or anything, whether or not I pre-rinse the handle by hand. Basically I don't baby them and they're doing good. How many years should I expect to get from a great nonstick pan?

And I want something that isn't going to be damaged when I mess up since I'm not an experienced cook, but I'm learning. I also wanna reduce my learning curve and just have it work with everything I wanna do and this pan seems to be that sweet spot, if you don't necessarily Need non stick

great review, thanks for sharing

[@susans.6595]

I am downsizing. What do you think of the removable handles and stacking options? I would love a set like the Carote. Is there a good option? Don't judge!! :)

[@PrudentReviews]

I haven’t tested Carot so can’t speak to that particular brand. But in general, I’m not a big fan of the detachable handles. They are simply not as sturdy and usually have mechanisms that can break. Instead, I would focus on just buying the essentials like a fry pan, saucepan and stock pot. Stainless steel is durable and versatile. You don’t need a ton of pans, a few good ones will do 90% of it. Email me at [e-mail] if you have specific questions, I can give you some resources and 1:1 advice.

I'm impressed you don't have any DeBuyer nor Darto

[@philipstaite4775]

Agreed. I have DeBuyer carbon steel and it has been great. Forgiving enough to learn carbon steel use & maintenance with, and works great for a more seasoned (pun intended) cook 3+ years in... ;-)

[@gregbrunner599]

wish you had tried the DeBuyers brand. Especially the pro ones. The mineral B part fails the oven due to their handle finish

[@leeannguynn]

Thank you for this! Any thoughts on the Le Creuset enameled cast iron pans?

[@PrudentReviews]

They’re excellent but expensive

[@heatheradair7338]

I gave up on non stick because they always need to be replaced. With proper seasoning, a cast iron pan is always non stick, and really good steel frying pans that are used properly ensure that your food does not stick.

I have a 14”, 3 12”, and a 10” frying pans and a 12x18 griddle/flat top and a Dutch oven all cast iron. I use them a lot, but my daily drivers are oxo good grips pro.

What is ur opinion on Legend cookware stainless steel and copper core? pans/pots.. Thank You

[@DianaLove-fv3of]

O Wow what an extensive review! Thanks

[@donaldengel4128]

I like the straight handles on the All Clad D3 original better than the "Upgraded" Everyday curved version personally.
