Hello, would anyone have experience with this brand?

In particular the nonstick performance as well as scratch resistance?

Any alternative recommendations?

Thank you. They’re not cheap but if they are indeed durable they could be worth it. We cook nearly every day at home

    If you want a true BIFL cookware get:

    Stainless steel pots.

    For pans, cast iron (if you are ok with the maintenance) or stainless steel.

    I switch between the two, depending on what I’m cooking. I expect my cookware will last many lifetimes.

    I’ve never heard of a non-stick pans lasting more than 5 or 10 years, and that’s if you aren’t being slowly poisoned during that time, either. There are almost no safe non-stick pans, other than cast iron. :)

    SS can be non-stick if you use them properly. But even if you don’t, they are easy to clean and make like new again.

      This is simply untrue. Things are meant to stick to stainless, that’s where the deglazing comes in. That said, I love my stainless frying pans but they are not for everybody. Things will stick and you have to be prepared to deal with that.

    My parents had them and were ecstatic at how great they were. Unfortunately that’s in the past tense.

    They lasted longer than other nonstick, but in the end they started peeling just like other brands and they went back to cast iron and stainless.

      Csst iron and stainless are really good for most things, and ceramic non-stick does a great job of filling the niche of a small and quick pan that doesn’t use as much oil as stainless and doesn’t need the heat retention of cast iron. Plus the ceramic surface holds up way better than other non-stick coatings.
