This is very common, actually.
So I found out that mine is actually a real Wagner Magnalite from the 30s 40s or 50s

For me my wife and kids
13" Magnalite Oval Roaster
For the family
12 Quart Magnalite pot
For a big crowd
26 quart Aluminum, 6mm thickness that I got from Restaurant Depot. That's the biggest I can fit on my stove.

Mine too. Pretty much everything else in my kitchen is replaceable except that pot and my other great grandmothers cast iron skillet.

Tramontina
Have a few pieces of tramontina, and I really like it. In fact, even my under the cabinet fridge is tramontina. Was literally a quarter of the price of the others I looked at.

It varies depending on the size crowd being served but my favorite is my grand fathers Dutch oven. Food just tastes better made in it

I have a 10 qt McWare and a 16 qt restaurant grade aluminum pot that Mom got probably 30 years ago. I wanted to use my wife's grandmother's oval roaster this weekend, but I made stock in the McWare and didn't want to dirty up another pot.

Big arse 24 qt commercial aluminum stock pot.
When I make stuff like gumbo, soups, red beans, etc., I like being able to make a couple of gallons of stuff to stash in the freezer; my last batch of red beans was 3 pounds of dry beans. The big pot means I don't have to worry about the pot boiling over or splashing because I had to fill the pot up. 4 gallons only fills it up 2/3 of the way, so there's plenty of room in there even when I'm cooking stupid amounts of food. Plus, it's great for stuff like smothering down mustard greens.
I had to buy myself a homebrewer's spoon with a really long handle just to be able to stir it without putting my hand in the pot. The first time I used it before I got the big arse spoon to go with the big arse pot was painful.

Bourgeat. I have a couple different sizes depending on the quantity I'm cooking for.
