Carote non-stick frying pans are excellent

For what it’s worth, Cook’s Illustrated suggested a few years back that it was futile to try and find a non-stick pan that last a lifetime. In fact, they determined that none of the ones that they tested were durable for very long, so their suggestion was to purchase a relatively inexpensive T-fal 10 or 12 inch pan and just plan on replacing it regularly as the non-stick surface fails. It’s not particularly sound advice, environmentally, but I am on my third pan in 5 years using their advice, and I use the pan almost daily, though the last one I bought was an Oxo.
