The circulon pans I got 10 years ago are still perfectly fine. I've killed a few Tefal non stick ones though

Has anyone dispensed with non stick pans altogether?
The circulon non sticksOnce the anodized surface has gone, they actually do pretty well with being treated like cast iron
I have taken a metal scourer to my other half's Circulon frying pan and with proper care (don't wash with detergent too often & regular seasoning) it's as non-stick as anything else I have with a Teflon surface.

Yep. Mixture of stainless, carbon steel and seasoned or enamelled cast iron .
Do have a non-stick sauté pan but I don't use it much. Mainly for really tomatoey stuff where I don't want the acid to eat away pan seasoning. Would trade it for a nice stainless one if I could.
Pick the right pan for the job and you can do anything. Stainless makes perfect omelettes and fried eggs if you get it hot first and use enough fat.

The circulon non sticks that I bought about 5 years ago are definitely stick, now.
I just acquired a de Buyer mineral B (carbon steel) pan. Only just seasoned it today, but it's nicely made, not that expensive, seems like it might be a good thing.
