Noreen! I just moved and oh how I need new cookware. I have been using old doallr store pans for months now, but could not decide on which ones to purchase, The new cookware is a lot different than my old cast aluminum, that had seen their last days months ago when we packed up. Thanks so much for the information, I really needed some input. You have helped me so many times with so many items, but this one tops them all for me. No more getting crazy while searching the isles. !!!! Bless, Sheila
