We recently did the change to induction here, and the only thing I miss from my gas burner is my non stick pan that was aluminum. I did need to buy a few other replacements, but I haven't found a non stick 12" in a store that I can make chili cheesy Mac in. (The tomato base eats the carbon steel seasoning, and I don't want to spend a bunch on a pan that is delicate)

Some day though.

You can still get those pretty cheap. Even before my induction stove was delivered I bought a reasonably priced set of non-stick skillets. Yes they’re aluminum, but with a steel disk in the base. I don’t remember the price, but it was by far the cheapest of my cookware.

FWIW, I don’t use non-stick anymore but I don’t want other people to mess up my cast iron of stainless

Yeah, I've not found one at local places idly looking, tfal for instance has made their induction ready ones only on their higher end pans.

Wow, yeah, that’s expensive for what it is. I have the tfal but for the price Costco had them, it never occurred to me they might be a high end model. I would not pay the prices I see online now. Unfortunately it was not a regular item at Costco and they soon left

Enameled cast iron, but I may be biased. ;)

And you've upgraded the lid knob on all of them! (Mine had a plastic knob, I bought a replacement)

I've got a... Collection? Of Pots and pans, I just want a cheap Teflon pan for a few recipes, And when I don't want to train house guests on seasoned pans.

I will have to train said house guests to not use high heat though, 3700w cooks. (We had a cheap, low performing gas stove, so this is a huge upgrade)

Except the loop knob on the one in the middle. That was the one that started all this, inherited from my grandmother. It's from the 1950s(!)
