Non Stick Pans that last

[StreetDragster]

Hi all,

Like alot of people i guess, we previously were not people that generally cooked very much in my household. But now, we are actually quite enjoying it and its a larger part of our lives.

Around the first lockdown, we replaced all our pots and pans with non stick items, Scoville 'Never Stick' items, lifetime guarantee, dish washer safe, etc etc.
Now initially, these were excellent, but now roughly a year later, the non stick abilities are fading.
They are not flaking or anything, they just are far from as good as they used to be, many things are starting to stick to them, eggs, pancakes, its starting to get annoying.

We have been looking after them too, hand washing only, plastic sponge/scourer, no metal scourers, no dishwashing, no harsh chemical etc.

Is this normal life expectancy of none stick stuff, or is there something more premium that will stand the test of time?

I'm enquiring with Scoville about replacing them under their guarantee, but I'm not holding my breath.

We have a wok, 3 saucepans with lids, and 3 frying pans. Gas hobs if that matters.

We also have Scoville baking trays, and they are still excellent, 1 year later.

Thanks
Matt
