which set of nonstick pots and pans..??

[cyphercat]

Our pots are all black, burnt, disgusting and I thought we could get ourselves new set of pots and pans for Christmas. We never eat out and cook all the time so we are looking for lightweight (have one le creuset but it's way way way too heavy and need three hands to carry it, I'm tiny), dishwasher safe, nonstick, and hopefully good looking. I was looking at Circulon steel elite set, but they are still heavier than cheapo stainless steel set that we have now. Does anybody else have lovely pots and pans and want to recommend theirs..??? Thank you.

I have a Circulon pan and it is fabulous - really recommend it - though it isn't part of a set. It's much lighter than le Creuset and we use it every single day - it's a kind of deep sided pan with two handles, can be used on top or in the oven and it is just great.

is this anodized one or stainless steel??

we have Tefal - I forget the name ofthe range but the most expensive non-stick inside-and-out ones and they have done us well for the last five years. - these are their current equivalent

I think I'd consider anodised if I were replacing them though

make sure the handles are oven safe
