Farberware sells nice sets with a good combination of sizes. They are medium priced, but they will last you for the rest of your life. I got some as a wedding gift 35 years ago, and still going strong. As for nonstick--you really need a good nonstick skillet in your collection. I've given up thinking they will last any amount of time. Think of it as planned obsolescence. When it stops being nonstick, donate it to Goodwill and buy another.
