What brand pots/pans do you use? (Magnalite, McWare, etc)

I stumbled on the thread below when doing research for pots/pans. I was unable to post to it since it was locked (to old). A couple of people on the thread mentioned McWare brand and that it was manufactured in LA. I emailed the company and they stated
"McWare cookware is owned and designed by a Louisiana company and manufactured in China."
This was disappointing, since I was hoping to buy something made in the US, being made in LA would have been icing on the cake.
So, does anyone have any recommendations?

If you can find last season's color, you can get it for half off.
looking to find their largest stock pot without having to sell a kidney.

I feel ya, but that's just not what we do anymore I suppose, make stuff that is.
The only thing name brand I own really is a Le Creuset pot and a couple magnelites I use on occasion. Most everything I own is all clad from various restaurant supply stores, a couple cast iron pots and pans I've picked up along the way, and a French carbon Steel.

My Aunt just gave me a few pieces of her old Magnalite stuff when I moved to into my new house. So far I absolutely love it.

I have the full All Clad set and I have some Magnalite that were passed down to me.

We have some of everything mentioned so far. Either passed down to us or from getting married.

Combination...
2 pieces Old Magnalite from the 1970s.
2 pieces Cast iron from the late 1800s.
2 pieces of all clad.
I have no use for more than 6.

I bought a set of McWare about 3 years ago, and I have been pretty impressed. Like you, I was disappointed to see that they were "Made in China" but since the company is out of LA, I figured that was better than nothing. I got the 1qt, 2qt, 3qt, 6qt, 12 inch skillet and the non-stick roasting pan (AMAZING).
I also have a Le Creuset 12" skillet and a couple of off-brand enamel coated cast iron dutch ovens (they were free) that I really like and will replace with Le Creuset when they give out. They make great soups, etc.

These are the best. Reminds me when I use to visit grandma's house.

Stainless and Cast Iron only.
Brand doesn't matter much.
I don't use Teflon/non stick or aluminum.
