NBR pots and pans

do you have/use more non stick or stainless steel pots and pans?

how long do they usually last?

what brand do you use? 

Re: NBR pots and pans

  • I got a big set of calphalon non-stick for my wedding.

    They're still in awesome shape after 5.5 years of using them constantly.

    However, Ikea has nice non-stick (nice and heavy!) for WAY cheaper that seem just as nice to me!

  • We got 2 non stick skillets (Emeril Lagasse brand) for our wedding (4 years ago) and they are AWESOME. Pots, on the other hand, we have cheap Faberware ones, and they're fine.

    If you're in the market for new pots/pans, I'd suggest maybe trying one or two pieces from a brand before you shell out major $$.

  • does canada have tj maxx/marshalls? those stores always have single pieces of cookware. That'd be a good way to test out the brands.
  • We have the Calphalon non-stick anodized cookware. They are awesome! But ridiculously expensive. If I had to buy them all myself, I probably wouldn't have! LOL! But seriously, they're 5 years old and look brand new. My parents have the same ones and theirs look great too! 

    ETA: I think they have a lifetime warranty... can't beat that!

    We have a non-stick set from Costco (Kirkland brand).  They're really nice and have lasted well for the past few years so far.

    we have winners which i think is owned by the same ppl as tj maxx.  maybe ill look there.  thanks for the suggestion! 

  • We got some Calphalon non stick pans for our wedding 2 years ago and really like them.  They're still pretty new, so I can't speak for longevity.  Like PP, I also probably wouldn't have paid for them myself.  Luckily they were gifts.

  • We have All-Clad and I love them.  They were a ton of $ (1200 for a ten piece set) but they are worth every penny.  They are stainless steal.
