I'm always split between wanting the clothes or the home goods- too many dangerous likes!
Thanks for all the input...it's definitely a good idea to be aware of coatings and leaching.
@Chasing Hawk -I'm pretty sure the
Tramontina brand was recommended on Consumer Reports - I'll need to re-check that one.
So far, I bought one *quite heavy* anodized pan which I seasoned along with my 3 other cast irons...so I've some 'ok' pieces for now. I'm definitely looking to increase the All-Clad and Creuset herd, maybe I'll try a Made In and see what it's like as well, and will keep an eye out for all sales and discounts! I'd forgotten the one Creuset I have was from a TJ Maxx - I'll keep my eyes peeled there for decent seconds, and sign up for All-Clad's emails! I think that having a pan with *some* weight to it seems to be most compatible with this cook top.
PM'ing you, Bags!
