I've got a large collection of cast iron pots, pans, etc. Good quality. However, one has to change their cooking culture to adapt to their usage, unless they're already setup for that style.
Maybe if I lived on a farm or deep in the country, I'd get more use out of them. Cast iron presents challenges for a modern urban life.
The seasoning, occasional reseasoning. ongoing oil re-seasoning after water washing, black and brown previous baked on parts dislodging into lighter foods (omelets), etc. etc. etc. Yes, cast iron presents some advantages (durability, quick searing, etc.), there's the weight, adapted washing, reseasoning, dangers (falling on glasstop, foot), smoking from build-up, etc. My entire lightly used cast iron collection will likely get donated to Goodwill, or left at the street unfortunately.
Regarding this OXO non-stick, OXO makes excellent designs but they contract out all the manufacturing. For non-sticks, for me, I'll purchase future non-stick pans from the non-stick manufacturers that are in direct control of their promoted non-stick process. Anyone else (OXO, Ikea, etc.) are less durable.
PROS
- excellent design (handle, shape, etc.)
- can use on induction cooktops
NEGS
- very poor non-stick durability
- can't use with anything but perhaps a soft silicone spatula
- using a light nylon pad to gently clean caused many scratches
- scratches won't happen right away, so purhaps it's a built-in durability expiration
My second one that I purchased, I only wash in the sink with my bare hand (or latex glove). Nothing else. No tools (except a very soft silicone spatula) are ever used with it. I'm afraid to still use my first purchase as a result of all the little scratches. Looks like skate marks on an ice rink, but they don't go down as far as the bare metal. It's completely unknown to me how these scratches occured. It never went in the dishwasher and I never used hard nylon tools with it. Perhaps it came from a light nylon wash pad that's supposed to be for non-sticks.
OXO does great designs but their non-stick company is not good for long-term durability. Maybe mine was just a bad production run. Scratches started appearing after 1-2 months of usage, cooking generally soft foods (not steaks or anything like that).
Every non-stick pan promotes "durable non-stick". There's a reason they all have so many ongoing purchases from people replacing their non-sticks. It's now a joke to me to read "durable non-stick". It's not in any of their best interests to actually give a long-term durable non-stick.

I think a good compromise is an enameled cast iron pan. Easier to maintain but still gives good non-stick properties with the very occasional reseasoning. I've been using a Tromantina one basically every day and have none of the problems you described. I also use my regular cast iron basically every day, but indeed have to put in more work to maintain it than the Tromantina.
I bought the 12" Pro a little over a year ago for $55, it's been a nice pan - almost TOO nonstick if there is such a thing (makes it hard to separate & remove grease after frying up some hamburger for tacos).
I'm in - can't pass this up @ $20 with how good the 12" version is.

Good price, but this month Costco has the 10" and 12" set on sale for $30 in store.
Those aren't the same pans, FWIW.. but not necessarily a bad option if costco is an option.

I have cast iron. Guess what? It's a high-maintenance pain in the arse by comparison. I almost never use them because they're heavy/awkward, too.

The Amazon one is better than the Costco one. Pro v. Non-pro. I find that the non-stick is better in the pro version and the coating is way more durable than the normal one. Plus you can use it on the dishwasher, but I always hand wash it still.
Protip: even if they say they're dishwasher safe, dishwashers will significantly shorten the lifespan of the pan.. always hand wash nonstick/aluminum pans.
Why do people insist on paying extra for basic pans?. My 4 dollar Walmart pan is going on ten years and still non stick with no flaking. My 3 dollar Ikea pan lasted 6 years before I accidentally heated it on high and ruined it (user error)
Because we've tried those cheapo walmart pans and found them lackluster next to higher quality pans? lol

My bad OXO non-stick (for durability, scratches) was indeed the Costco one. The Costco one isn't necessarily a "better deal" if it's not the same product. I can't endorse the Amazon offering because I have no experience with it.

I have to admit, your strategy could be the best one. Using the cheapest possible non-stick can be great as long as you throw it out at the first sign of scratches. Having a PFOA-free pan might be important (most have updated) to avoid killing pet birds, etc.
Scratched $4 non-sticks aren't any worse than scratched $30-$50 non-sticks. I've seen people use expensive well-scratched non-sticks because they paid much more for them. They feel they have to get their money's worth.
These pans are great, I got the 10 + 12" pack from Costco to go with the induction cooktop I'd just bought. They work so well together.
In reading the descriptions and seeing the pictures, the OXO from Costco is indeed a very different OXO non-stick pan from the OP's professional OXO non-stick pan. The Costco OXO shouldn't be compared to the non-stick OXO in the OP's link and in the 12-pan review story. They're extremely different pans.
You'll be fine with the Costco OXO, for at least a couple months, or maybe even a year, before surface scratches start appearing. The OP's Professional OXO is likely a much more durable OXO non-stick. I definitely wouldn't purchase the Costco OXO one again. YMMV.

Weird. I have none of the issues you have with cast iron. If you overheat a non-stick pan (like it seems you do often with your cast iron), you get toxic chemicals in the air giving you polymer fume fever and will kill any nearby birds. Also, the non-stick surface flakes off into your food, which is just gross. You have to baby non-stick; I use metal utensils in my cast iron no problem. I have 100 year old cast iron that is just as non-stick as your modern urban pan and it is literally bullet proof. I have new cast iron (Butter Pat) that was non-stick out of the box and still is.
Scratched $4 non-sticks aren't any worse than scratched $30-$50 non-sticks. I've seen people use expensive well-scratched non-sticks because they paid much more for them. They feel they have to get their money's worth.
Lets be real though, these days, those "$4 walmart pans" are probably more like $20 anyway.

I'm in - can't pass this up @ $20 with how good the 12" version is.
$20 for a pan is hardly breaking the bank - especially considering this is one of America Test Kitchen's most well-liked pans in a big 'shootout' comparison they did [americastestkitchen.com] (the 12" version, at least).

Replaced some less expensive ones that didn't maintain their non-stick property as well.
