Induction cookware for rheumatoid arthritis sufferer?

It's time our elderly hob and oven were replaced and Madam would like an induction hob. This gives us a good excuse to update our even more elderly pots and pans for some which are suitable for induction and also dishwasher-safe. We've been looking at the likes of Circulon and Stellar but Madam has rheumatoid arthritis in her wrists and isn't too keen on the weight of the hard-anodized ranges (we haven't yet found a local stockist of the Circulon Steel Elite items).

Can anyone suggest well-made and long-lasting alternatives? Or is this an area where to some extent one's paying for the name and buying on observed quality and weight is a relatively safe procedure ?

Opinions greatly appreciated.

My mum has induction hob and arthritis, she's gone for Ikea stainless steel pans, which she doesn't find too heavy. Plus the handles seem to be better placed for min. 'pull' on her wrists. She went round John Lewis, picking up endless pans to gauge which were the lightest, but (after trying a friends') decided on Ikea's and is really happy. Quite good length of guarantee, I think too.
