Jack my wife would be happy you noticed the pans. She loves them and swears that stainless one is the best. Suppose to be healthier for you also. Do to not having Teflon coating. I hate cooking with then. She says I just haven't learned to cook with them yet. You really have to let them heat up or everything sticks to them. That's why the taters are in the non stick pan. Stainless are good just sucks trying to clean them.
