I'm not looking for high end stuff here. Just daily use, household pots and pans of decent quality that will hold up and won't break the bank.

What are the OT's suggestions? Also, if you could link any sales/deals, that would be great.

Magnalites are pretty decent. Pick up a set of nonstick skillets at sams for about $30 that has 3 different sizes. That will take care of 90% of what you cook on the stove.

Magnalite is the best stuff they got.

Go to goodwill and browse. I’ve been able to find several brand name pots there. All my skillets come from there as well. If you mess them up, go grab another for a few dollars

THe Tramontina tri-ply is probably the best bang for your buck set out there:

Tramontina Triply

We have a set at the fishing camp and they are great.

Anything is good as long as you take care of it properly. I mostly use cheapish stuff and don’t let anyone else touch my pans. Wife has ruined too many of them. A simple caliphon non-stick and a lodge cast iron pan and Dutch oven are my go-to

I just replaced my cathalon non stick cookware with all-clad. If you live in the nola area you can come by and pick up my old stuff.

I pretty much use cast iron, but those red copper skillets are legit. Don't know how long they will hold up, but they are cheap. Have the skillet and the Dutch oven.
