I need to invest in a set sooner or later and costco is running a sale next week on them. Any ATOT chefs want to share any experience with them?
 
I've got a couple Calphalon Commercial pieces. I love 'em. I always think the food's going to stick, but it always always wipes off very easily.

Plus, I love that I can use Comet powder or Scotch-Brite pads on 'em. Plus, they can go from stovetop to oven no problem, which Teflon cannot do. The only thing you CAN'T do is put 'em in the dishwasher - it'll ruin the anodization.

Don't go for a set though, just buy the items you need. I was thinking of getting a $200 set of Calphalon Commerical pans from Amazon, but instead I got 2 pans (a saucier and an 'everyday' pan) for $35 total, and it's all I really need.

Amazon has great prices on Calphalon stuff.
 
the costco set from circulon (or whatever) is gonna be selling for 160 and i have been thinking about getting them...

not dishwasher safe? grr.
 
if you've got good experience... use stainless, gives great searing and browning...

cast iron tends to rust unless you leave bit of oil on the surface... (even the expensive french stuffs)

love SCANPAN... this is the baked on non-stick. you can use metal utensils w/o worry of peeling.

All Clad is a lot of maintenance... too much hand wash...
