Heavy-gauge aluminum is known for its ability to evenly conduct heat. Stainless steel is known for its durability and compatibility with different cooking surfaces Read More
So I bought this set on MassDrop several months back. I bought them to replace a set of All-Clad LTD fry pans that I had owned for many years. IMO these pans have equaled my All-Clad pans in quality and performance. I’ve been very happy with them and wouldn’t hesitate to buy them again.
MajorMajortomtomMSRB for most products now is just a way to make it seem like your product is on sale, it's almost never followed. Well it's followed in some brick and mortar retail outfits, but that's their movie popcorn model of survival.

Don't waste money on these Viking models. All-Clad is top of the line, chefs use them all the time, I have this pair and a few other All-Clad pieces and they last a lifetime for sure.
You may want to look a little closer at Teflon, it can be quite dangerous if you don't keep to its temperature requirements or continue using a highly damaged pan. Anything taken to extremes or performed without proper care can be dangerous/harmful. You're going to need to post something more academic than a newspaper web article for me to start getting concerned.
Is there a model without non-stick?
I bought a new anodized calphalon set in 1986. Just this year the anodization began to come off -- 32 years later.
I bought two calphalon non-stick fry pans in 2010; they're already trashed because of non-stick coating.
BriansfI am amazed your nonstick lasted 9 years, what's the secret? The non-stick for me has gotten trashed on my caphalons within 3 years and using nothing but wood and plastic on it, same with other brands (no hard scrubbing either mind you).

Swiss Diamond uses PTFE in their pans. Here's what they say:
If heated above the recommended maximum temperature of 500 degrees F (260 degrees C), a PTFE-based nonstick coating could affect pet birds.
So "500F-safe" is not for pan safety (the pan can handle much more).
Yeah, I'm not on board for any kind of non-stick surface. My brother in law is a fancy chef. Cooks for billionaires, used to have his own well reviewed restaurant. And you know what, never once seen him using any non-stick pans. Stainless, cast iron or aluminum. Copper when the recipe requires.
If they had a couple Viking stainless for this price otoh...
Informative? Haven't seen such a thing from you. All I see is you blatantly name dropping your brother in law that cooks for "billionaires". Also, recipes don't "require" copper pans, they are used for their superior conductivity, another glaring indicator that you don't know what you're talking about.
I don't see how you could make a decent omelette or crepe in a pan that is not non stick. If you don't like non stick, I don't even know what you're doing looking at this drop except trying to "humble brag".
Correct, I should have clarified I meant things that weren't deflate style sauces (which often also need a seat on the protein); hollandaise or Italian red/butter sauces, etc. Things you don't want a "burn" involved in that would need a deglaze.
