Maybe if I lived on a farm or deep in the country, I'd get more use out of them. Cast iron presents challenges for a modern urban life.
The seasoning, occasional reseasoning. ongoing oil re-seasoning after water washing, black and brown previous baked on parts dislodging into lighter foods (omelets), etc. etc. etc. Yes, cast iron presents some advantages (durability, quick searing, etc.), there's the weight, adapted washing, reseasoning, dangers (falling on glasstop, foot), smoking from build-up, etc. My entire lightly used cast iron collection will likely get donated to Goodwill, or left at the street unfortunately.
Regarding this OXO non-stick, OXO makes excellent designs but they contract out all the manufacturing. For non-sticks, for me, I'll purchase future non-stick pans from the non-stick manufacturers that are in direct control of their promoted non-stick process. Anyone else (OXO, Ikea, etc.) are less durable.
PROS
- excellent design (handle, shape, etc.)
- can use on induction cooktops
NEGS
- very poor non-stick durability
- can't use with anything but perhaps a soft silicone spatula
- using a light nylon pad to gently clean caused many scratches
- scratches won't happen right away, so purhaps it's a built-in durability expiration
My second one that I purchased, I only wash in the sink with my bare hand (or latex glove). Nothing else. No tools (except a very soft silicone spatula) are ever used with it. I'm afraid to still use my first purchase as a result of all the little scratches. Looks like skate marks on an ice rink, but they don't go down as far as the bare metal. It's completely unknown to me how these scratches occured. It never went in the dishwasher and I never used hard nylon tools with it. Perhaps it came from a light nylon wash pad that's supposed to be for non-sticks.
OXO does great designs but their non-stick company is not good for long-term durability. Maybe mine was just a bad production run. Scratches started appearing after 1-2 months of usage, cooking generally soft foods (not steaks or anything like that).
Every non-stick pan promotes "durable non-stick". There's a reason they all have so many ongoing purchases from people replacing their non-sticks. It's now a joke to me to read "durable non-stick". It's not in any of their best interests to actually give a long-term durable non-stick.

But do not just take my random advice. Check the reviews.

Currently $50 online, cannot confirm in-store price. These advertise induction, unlike the 10" posted. The problem is that the reviews say induction is very slow with these pans. Not worth it for me since that was going to be my primary heating method.
