3. We have several COPCO pots and pans...

It's porcelain enameled cast iron.
And it lasts forever!
Most pieces have wooden handles, and it's very stylish.

Sweetie bought a skillet on eBay a few years ago.
We liked it so much, we bought another.
And another.
And a dutch oven.
And a covered sauce pan.
And another.
And a casserole dish.
And another...

It's VERY expensive new.
But well worth it.
We only bought one item new, which was on sale and then marked down even further.
All the others we bought on eBay.
If you look there now, you will see quite a selection.

At first, I was bothered by the notion of using someone else's old cookware, but I got over it real fast when I started using the first skillet we got.
Things cook so nicely and evenly, and it cleans up quickly, no matter how how much the food burns, which it won't.

Between COPCO and stainless steel, that's all we have in our kitchen any more.
Highly recommended!!!
