budget right now would probably be no more than $150/pan, and with good care at least a year’s worth of cooking. i was raised well enough to not use metal utensils on coated pans so at least that will aid in the life of the pan

novice at cooking here. know the basics and can make some decent tasting dishes without the need of a recipe, but not enough to know the full ins and outs of cooking.

since i moved out of my parents’, i’ve been cooking with cheap pans pots and pans from ikea, and while they do the trick for most of my cooking, i cannot for the life of me make decent eggs without them overcooking and sticking, butter/oil help a little bit but not consistently. the electric range is def a hurdle to learn coming from gas, but most of my other dishes seem to come out fine.

anyway, i’ve been looking into some decent pans that meet the following criteria:

• nonstick without chemicals (teflon/PFAS/whatever)
• induction burner compatible, as i plan on getting a burner at some point
• (optional) comes in an 8in and 10in size
• (optional) oven safe

from what i’ve seen so far the “Analon EverLast N₂ Carbon Steel” seems like what i’m looking for based on reviews but i also wanted to ask for people’s opinions before making a purchase
