Best, Most Durable Non-Stick Fry Pan
I'm tired of crappy non-stick fry pans that I have to replace every 6-12 months. I'm looking for something that is very durable. They all work great when they are new but food starts sticking after a while.
Please read the title of this post and its contents carefully. I am looking for non-stick. Please don't answer with posts about cast iron skillets. I'd like something that's 14" with a lid, but 12-12.5 inches would also be considered. I don't care if your mother and grandmother swore by cast iron. I don't care that you use cast iron and have one for fifty years and it still works great. I don't care that cast iron is preferred by professional chefs. I am looking for extremely durable, NON-STICK. It seems that so many reviews are about the best value. That seems to me to translate into something cheap that lasts a bit longer than other cheap pans.

How do you know which ones is BEST? I don't think the OP wants to have to buy each one to determine which one is the best.

MY own curiosity was piqued enough for me to look at Amazon's own recommendations. It looks like T-Fal may be the winner. It is cheap enough to buy, try, and toss if you don't like it.

T-Fal wins in some reviews but I understand that there are some that last a very long time and you can even use metal utensils in them.

It has always been my philosophy, no matter how broke we were when we were young, to use the best foods and best equipment. Otherwise why do all that work if you don't get the best results?

Check out the Farberware Millennium non-stick fry pan.
I have gotten 15 plus years of use from them, since I don’t abuse them! What I believe really breaks down non-stick coatings is using too high a heat level. The Millenium pans do not require high burner settings due to their construction. |

The thing that bothers me with cheap, non-stick fry pans is that after they wear out in a year or two, they go to the land-fill and that bothers me, but I don't have an answer.

The All Clad mentioned before is by far the best pan. They can cost upwards of $125.
I have been using a $25 copper pan from TJ Maxx for over a year now. Best inexpensive non-stick I've used at home and it still looks brand new. NO TEFLON! . Never put cold water on a hot copper pan, they warp. That is the only thing you need to know |

I don't think that any non-stick pan you buy will last very long. I read somewhere that the best thing to do is to buy cheap non-stick pans from discount stores and just throw them away when they are no longer non-stick. Stores like Bealls and TJ Max always seem to have a pan for sale that is extremely inexpensive.

Hard anodized pans aren't made with Teflon and should last longer.
Hard Anodized Cookware vs. Non-stick Cookware: what is the best non stick cookware? My main set is hard anodized, but they're heavy. I prefer this T-Fal deep cooker which is still in good shape after 4 years of almost daily use. Just don't run cold water on it while it's hot or it tends to warp. I prefer to wash by hand so have never put it in the dishwasher. I don't have metal utensils.
