What cookware is the best and most affordable?
I enjoy cooking and will be replacing my old set of cookware. What are some recommendations to brands?
I would suggest going to a restaurant supply store and buying aluminum cookware. It is inexpensive and will last a long time. Just look up "Wholesale Grocery" in your local yellow pages. These stores are open to the general public and you do not have to be a member to shop there. I have several pots and pans I have purchased from one of these places. I don’t think I’ve spent more than $35 for any one piece. "Vollrath" is one brand name. There are several others.

Well the terms "the best" and "most affordable" often do not go together, however, I find if you go to a big box store, or department store you can often find 50% off deals on the 10 piece sets.
Personally I like Paderno cookwear…http://www.paderno.com/

I agree with the person above, best and affordable are a bit mutually exclusive. So I would suggest you decide how much you can afford and spend a bit more (this is typical of me!). Have you thought about buying one pan a month for six months or something? That’s what I did when I replaced my pans (which I’d had since I was a student, 25 years and they cost £7, now THAT was a bargain). I wouldn’t go for aluminium as it’s not very good for you. I have Cuisinox (French, heavy based, stainless steel) and a lot of people swear by Le Creuset (cast iron, enamel-clad). Of course the king of cookware is copper, lined with tin but it’s astronomically expensive and you have to get the tin lining redone every so often as it wears out.
