Recommendations re non stick frying pan?

  • I'd like to put a really GOOD non stick frying pan on my Christmas Wish List. Can anybody recommend a brand that really IS non stick?

    AGREED!!
  • Thanks! I've googled their product line, and they certainly seem to get great reviews.
  • They run some pretty good specials at Bed Bath and Beyond, coupled with the coupons...
  • Le Cruset
    The best nonstick pan I have ever used is from Le Cruset. It's my daily pan and I refuse to cook without it.
  • I'v been loving my Food Network brand Hard Anodized cookware. I have the 3pc skillet set, the 4 1/2 quart skillet (i use it for everything!!) and the 3qt soup/sauce pot. I've pieced my collection together as they've gone on sale. I couldnt do without them and am rotating out my older kitchenware by replacing them with this brand. I've had the skillets for over a year...no flaking or reduction in non-stickiness.
  • I usually don't use non-stick - I'm a plain stainless or cast iron girl, but when I do... I get out my really big calphalon griddle. Some of the IP products do not work well on my regular pans.
  • I have a set of pots and pans by AmeriWare purchased at Costco. You can cook without oil, scorch things to death and it stills washes up without effort. Best thing I've bought for my kitchen.
  • Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I really appreciate it.

  • For me, it's Le Creuset. Expensive, but worth every penny and will last forever.
  • I'm going back to cast iron!

    I have tried every other NON stick pan and hands down, cast iron.

    I know it's old, but once seasoned properly, you can't beat it!
  • All Clad - expensive but worth it, they last forever!
