Best 'non stick' pans UPDATED

[RobbieTheTruth]

I know there has been a lot of these threads, but there are so many 'new' products coming to market.

What's best at a reasonable price point??


Ninja have 'NeverStick' which they claim never sticks, chips or flakes due to the increased heat used in their manufacture.

Asda have 'Prestige x9 Tougher', 'Scoville NeverStick 5x Tougher', and 'Scoville Expert 6x Tougher'.

Tesco have 'Salter Megastone 12x tougher'

Tefal are doing 'Titanium Excellence - UK's Longest Lasting Non-Stick coating'.


Any strong opinions either way, or do they all give similar results?

Disclaimer - not interested even a fraction about them all being bad, and how you should season and treat cast iron with olive oil, and never put in the dishwaster etc. I want dishwasher safe, non stick pans that I'll use and bin when they are done.

Sainsburys were selling the Scoville 5x pretty cheap a couple of months back. So far so good. But not really long enough to test the longevity as pretty much any pan lasts 2 months

I bought the most basic of Tefal Range (Essentials) and pretty much used them daily for 3 years and washed in a dishwasher, and only now need to replace

General rule of thumb: non sticks don’t last. Expect them to wear out.

My current experience:

Tefal Jamie Oliver pan: great at the start but non stick capabilities don’t last. I’ve had two, first was replaced under warranty for rivets that worked loose. Tefal customer service was awful.

IKEA HEMKOMST: premium pan. Conducts heat really well, did a steak with a nice crust. Fried eggs are lovely on it.

John Lewis ceramic non stick. OK for a year, now fairly dull.

Scoville never stick - I have a pan, frying pan and a roasting tin. All lasting well after a couple of years.

“Our place” trendy pan from instagram. Ceramic nonstick, fine for 6 months, doesn’t conduct heat too well, but not too bad.

I will probably avoid ceramic nonstick in the future.

Had this set for six years and still going strong. frying pans (especially the large one) are showing signs of wear but still work well. Youtube them for reviews.

I'll take a few photos of what they currently look like when I get a chance if you like.

We have Stellar Rocktanium and they are by an absolute mile the best pans we have ever owned. I rarely even need washing up liquid or to put them in the dishwasher. A quick rinse and wipe and everything just washes off.

Not super cheap but often available at good prices on Amazon

Has anyone tried Hexclad?

I have and it’s fantastic! I thought I’d wrecked it a few times but a good scrub and it’s back to new again.
