Feedback on hexclad cookware? - eviltoast

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

    I have some Hex Clad (real ones), used for a few years now without issue, no scratches or damaged areas, they are good for general purpose cooking, the non stick is ok but not amazing. Eggs tend to stick more but not like glue, as long as you use some butter/oil.

    They were bought to replace my tefal pans, used a few of those over some years but they always warped and the non stick coating wore off.

    I did buy 2 Green Pans to fry eggs etc. in but the non stick coating developed a worn area within 10 months, and they also showed signs of the coating flaking off, with proper use.

    All in all I prefer stainless steel, esp for meat, but for big (one) pan meals I use my hex clad. Over time I hope to replace all non stick with certified pfas free pans, real stainless steel alternatives are rather expensive.

      You used too much heat. I try to be careful but occasionally fuck up the same way.
