For serious cooking , I am dedicated to my Le Creuset pots and pans. I love them. My favorite every day frying pans are a set I found at Costco a few years ago. I was dismayed that they were only available as a set, but they have been great. They conduct heat well, are non-stick and come in practical sizes. Just checked the brand name on a couple of pans and they are "Bialetti." I don't know if this is an every day item. If you see them, grab them. Excellent for every day use.
p.s. agree that Cuisinart pots and pans are total crap. I also hate All Clad. God help the one trying to remove egg yolk which sticks to an All-Clad Frying pan. Utterly hopeless.
