to think my Le Creuset frying pan should last forever?

[LadyWellian]

I've only had it 15 years and things are starting to stick. I can no longer cook fish or even contemplate an omelette.

I've been nice to it, never used any metal utensils or abrasive cleaners.

Am I going to have to get a new one? Does anyone know where I can get a Le Creuset mortgage?

My auntie had to give all hers away because she wasn't able to lift them any more (I struggle sometimes!) So the pans may last for ever but your ability to use them may not.

onceamai, I'm surprised at the lid breaking! I always thought that Le Creuset would be the winner in a pan/floor fight!

Exactly that. I can’t lift them any more. I always struggled a bit when they were full.

I just looked up a ceramic GreenPan at John Lewis. It said 5 other people are looking at it now. I bet they’re other Mumsnetters 😂
