I have used Scanpan for twenty years or so, had a weird one
replaced free by the company, the others are still going strong.
Excellent heat conduction, excellent non-stick qualities which
will still give "sticky bits" to yield a fond and great sauces.
They are pricey.

I started using greenware (cuisinart) a couple of years ago and
they are wonderful. Much lighter than Scanpan and very non-
stick, yet they have a good cooking "feel" and are very responsive.
Best they are available in nice sets pretty inexpensively if you
look around. Not the cheapest, but very good and innovative.

Both strongly recommended and worth the internet searches.
