What brand of cookware do you have?

Farberware here...have had it for probably 35-38 years. It works great.

Also have a few non-stick fry pans that I like.

dh got me a set of Wolfgang Puck cookware and at first I HATED it! Everything I cooked in those pots and pans stuck!!!!!!!!! It didn't matter what I did I had a mess on my hands! I have since learned to love those pots and pans and nothing sticks any more!

I really love that I can go from cook top to oven with these pans!!!

I have the Kirkland (costco brand) set made by Caphalon - They are wonderful pans but they require maintenance of oiling monthly. They are nice and heavy and the handles don't heat up - and they have a size for everything with clear glass tops.

I have a mix-match of different kinds, too. Most of them cheapies but I do own one a large T-fal skillet, a small cast iron one and one stainless steel large pot I use a lot.

What I am after is a large stainless steel skillet that I can use metal in and I want this because I like making philly cheese steak subs. I can't chop up the meat in a non-stick skillet and my cast iron one is too small for that.

I have a cheapie non-stick, flat, square grill type skillet that goes over two burners, and has a well all around it to catch grease and that one is great for frying bacon or making grilled cheese sandwiches and french toast but because it's non-stick I can't use it for much else.

I have a very expensive set of Towncrafte Cookware. At first I was not impressed, but it just took a little getting use to. I love them now. The food tastes so much better cooked in them. Unless you have actually been to a show and know what I am talking about, it is hard to describe. There is no meat shrinkage when you cook, and the veggies turn out great. I also find that food cooks faster in them as well. The best part is that you cook with Med- Low temps only. I would not trade them, and they have a lifetime guarantee. They will be replaced free of charge for as long as you own them. The man that sold me mine has been selling them since the 60's. If you go to www.townecraft.com you can read about them. Unfortunately the price was a huge investment. (Over $1,000) But very much worth every penny.

i have a set of tfal. works ok and i've had it for at least 5 years. a couple of the peices need replacing, but a few of them i'll keep. i have a cuisnart frying pan and a calphalon triply frying pan i got free when i went to a class on cookware for work. i really love the calphalon one. i want to get a set of th etriply from work, i just haven't had the extra money. i might get it this christams with my christmas money though. they don't have the nonstick coating, but as long as you let whatever it is that you are cooking sit for a few minutes to let the sugars in it carmelize, everything lifts out nicely. i'll still have a couple nonstick ones for making eggs though.
