Looking for a cookware set, not sure where to start!

Petek, you had better luck with Copper Chef than I did. I bought 1 fry pan, used it only for eggs, only on medium low heat and the eggs stuck to the pan, even with a bit of oil. Not impressed with it at all. I then went and bought an iRock at Walmart.....it is fantastic....eggs don't stick at all.

I bought this Cuisinart non stick saute pan at Linens and Things in 2000 and I use it primarily for omeletes or scrambled eggs. But I’ve used it for just about everything else I needed a frying/saute pan for. I usually wash it by hand, but it has also been in the dishwasher several times over the years too. It still has retained its non stick properties, I don’t use metal utinsels in it, but it hasn’t been babied either. I don’t even know if they still make this pan, but I’d sure buy one again if I needed a replacement.

My favorite everyday cookware is All-Clad I have had mine for over 18 years and held up very well and perform even better.

If you plan to use it as instructed any of the waterless stuff. Lustre Craft, Vitacraft, etc. Had a lot of stuff and now 99% is vintage waterless, it’s heavier than all clad and cooks more evenly.

I refuse to cook on anything with a toxic non stick surface. I have 9 Griswold vintage cast iron skillets I cook most things from breakfast to pasta sauces in or I use my vintage stainless Revere ware stuff. I wont use anything with a machine made coating. Same thing with fridge storage. Nothing plastic. Its all Vollrath stainless containers from the 50's that were my grandfathers or glass containers. Better safe than sorry.
