Any suggestions on quality pots, pans?

[addy76]

I have some old pots, pans that belonged to my dad.I would live to update to good quality...About time ! I bought an item not long ago, but it burns porridge easily..not happy.I have been told Scanpan, Grosevenor..what do you think?

definately go the scanpan. they might set you back a few hundred dollars, but try and get them in the sales, shop around. they will last you forever. we have them and they are terrific. easy to clean as well. i wouldn't bother with a whole set because you dont need heaps of pots, just go for a few saucepans and maybe 2 different size frypans. hope that helps !!

My favourite pot (and we use it most days) is from a company called Chef's Toolbox. They do home party things, like tupperware parties. It's a pot, it goes in the oven, it does everything and cooks everything beautifully and cleans with just a wipe. Love it. Cost us a lot, but it's been worth it.

circulon definitely! we were given some as a present & they are awesome! i think they also have a lifetime guarantee or something similar. i have never had anything stick EVER to them! not eggs, pancakes, meat, anything!

Another Scanpan loather here! All ours have failed us dismally I'm so disappointed especially given the $$ we spent on them even if they were on sale. All three expensive pans have been binned. We have vowed never to buy Scanpan again.

Our Raco roaster on the other hand is amazing and has had SO much use over the years (we've had it 5.5 yrs) and its non-stick coating is still going strong. I'd highly recommend Raco.

Our pots and pans are Bacarrat and they too are amazing. We will be getting a new set this year but we don't really need too, I just want to update them to glass lids and better technology. We've had them for 8 or so years and they've had one hell of a workout

I have some anlon pots and frypans. They arecreally good. Have had them a couple of years and they still look like new and completely non stick. I also have a tefal non stick frying pan for the same amount of time and never had a problem.

Love my Baccarat.

My scanpan griddle lasted 6 months before the surface was damaged.
Le chasseur cast iron is good.
Bessemer are good too.

I have a circulon pan and love it but my analon saucepans need to be thrown out. They are non stick and it's coming off. The handles get really hot too I have burnt myself a few times.

I have a swiss diamond frypan which is excellent

Can I recommend mild steel frypans? They are bomb-proof, dirt cheap and never lose their non-stick surface (if you season them well). They can handle super high heat and are oven proof. They rock! I will never need to buy a non-stick pan again....

I have a Raco set - Very happy so far, just ended up with a few pieces we did not want originally, but now use.

Looked at just buying the pieces we wanted, but found some sizes were just not sold as seperates, plus when you added up the price of a few pieces, it was more than a whole set.

It was a struggle to find the right set. Really wanted to spend $1000 on the one I wanted, but my budget was much less than that. I was also fussy about how the handles connected to pots (had to connect at two point, not one screw that gets loose) and what I wanted from the lids.

I swear by my Tupperware tupperchef pot...... But they don't sell them anymore

Chalk up another vote for Circulon - the only thing I have found is that you really need to be careful what kind of oil you use in them as olive seems to cake onto the teflon and burn somehow! Apparently it has something to do with the sugar content...

OR if you go to op shops and just try and find the old copper based saucepans - I'm still using my Great-grandmothers copper based pots and I have found nothing can surpass them. Nothing heats up faster or holds heat better, and I swear things just plain taste better when they come from those pots!
