I don't want to spend a fortune on a new set of pans, up to £100 for a set of 5

What I want to know is which type people think is best...
I've got a gas hob at the moment, but I'm looking at replacing my cooker and might for for ceramic or induction, so could do with something suitable for all

Cheers

    We have a set of Circulon Pans and really like them.

    The handles are over proof and nothing sticks.

    Had them for about 7 years and they are still as good as ever.

    You should probably make your own saucepans rather than buying them, far cheaper than shop bought convenience pans! :p:D

    I recently got two Circulon pans to replace a couple of cheaper non-stick ones, for use on my ceramic hob, and I love them so far.

    I've just moved into a new flat and my mum decked my kitchen out using this new shopping portal called LionsHome(?). She's been telling everyone she knows about it. Here is a link to what comes up when you type saucepan in there search bar...http://www.lionshome.co.uk/search:saucepan/

    I hope you find something!

    Another vote for Circulon. Mine can even go in the oven, though I never use them in the oven cos I have an assortment of oven dishes. Nice heavy bottoms, great quality.

    If you are a member it may be worth a look in Costco.

    Oven proof handles are a must imo. So easy to finish things off in the oven without having to transfer the food to a different dish.

    Just bought a Circulon pan thanks to the advice in this thread, it's great so far, and has a lifetime guarantee so the company must be pretty confident in the product.

    Tefal non stick pans are rubbish, use them for 6 months, treat them as carefully as you possibly can and they still lose their non stick and they're not cheap. Years ago Tefal pans used to be good but not now.

    Wow, Le Crusset are damn expensive!!
