I am again looking to replace my cheap set of pans that have finally outlived their use after a few years. I always buy cheap sets and then replace them after 3-4 years but I am wondering if I should step up and maybe invest more. I only cook for me.
If I upgrade to one of the nicer sets like from a Rachel Ray or Paula Deen for about twice the money, does anyone find they get more years out of them or is it just a name you're paying for?
I don't mind investing in a nicer set if they stay nicer longer but I'm not a home chef that gets caught up on the particulars of performance either so All Clad is not for me.
Any opinions on sticking with the Oster/Farberware/TFal brigade or would you recommend it's time to move on up?
