I really don’t like nonstick pans. I love my CI and CS pans and my beloved mirror finished SS pan. I do always keep one medium sized nonstick around as they do have their utility. I replace it every two years though as no matter if it’s a cheap as seen on TV one or a fancy name brand, they all loose their nonstick properties with regular use. I had enough and decided to try a non-treated titanium coated pan. I have to say, so far I’m pretty impressed. Nowhere near the performance of a freshly purchased nonstick, but a bit less sticky than SS. Where it’s really shining is with cleanup. It been very easy to wash clean even when there is charring or adherence. I haven’t tried yet, but I think it’s going to be perfect for cold-searing. Has anyone else tried these? Does the nonstick quality fade with microabrasions over time? If so hopefully lasts longer than 2 years?

    I wanna know that too - are titanium coated pans any better than regular ones after a year of use?

    I’ve seen mix reports, mostly that the extra non-stick (over regular steel, which is still good) doesn’t last & you are left just with the better optics.
