    It’s time to throw out my frypan. Shit went down hill when YL tried to recreate a butter chicken dish using frozen crumbed chicken tenders. It hasn’t been the same since.

      Don’t touch hexclad. I made that mistake and ditched the pan after just a couple of uses. EVERYTHING sticks to it and it’s a bugger to clean. Don’t believe the advertising.

      For non-stick I have a tefal one and a esteele one. The esteele I like much better. When the tefal carks it I’ll replace with esteele. More expensive but they regularly go on sale at Myer or DJs.

          I reckon they’re about the same non-stickness, but the esteele has thicker base and heats more evenly, and holds the heat better. The non stick coating seems more robust. Can’t say about durability, I have had it only a couple of years but so far is holding up very well.

        Coles have a promo right now. I looked at the frypan and it looks alright to me. I believe it’s Kitchenaid.

        I look for 3 things. Light weight, easy to clean and non stick.

          Welp, wouldn’t recommend you Solidteknics, but I love mine. Heavy and similar to looking after cast iron. And not cheap upfront. Hoping they’ll outlast me tho.

            Yeah I don’t get attached to frypans.

            I have 27 year old Acrosteel pots that are still going strong. The only way I’ll get rid of them is if I upgrade to induction.
