I need new induction cookware I won’t have to throw away in two years.
I just posted about cuisinart steel chef’s collection. They cook well and replaced one under lifetime warranty (for what I would consider user error) last week. It shipped within 24 hours of my claim in, no back and forth. They have sets of various size and are extremely economical.

What brand / type of pots & pans are worth investing in as a young adult?
My favorites/BIFL as someone who cooks most days. Cuisinart Chef’s classic stainless steel- 3qt sauce pot, 8qt stock pot, 10” skillet. Cuisinart Chef’s Classic - Enameled Cast Iron 5qt Casserole. Lodge 10.25” skillet. For family get togethers, I do have an additional sauce pot if needed. A small stainless steel prep bowl serves as a double boiler when needed. I’ve been considering adding a carbon steel wok to my collection.

What brand / type of pots & pans are worth investing in as a young adult?
I’ve had my Cuisinart (Chef’s classic) stainless steel for 21 years so far with heavy use. They are still going strong and actually still look good! (Not perfect but good) I’ve used them on electric and gas stove tops, gone from stove to oven, and refrigerated and reheated food with no problems. If you have to choose pieces vs a set to start - choose a 2 qt sauce pot and a medium sized skillet - 8-10”. Read up on how to cook and clean with stainless steel. It’s not complicated but makes a big difference with ease of use and maintenance. (As in - any pan lasts longer if you aren’t frequently having to use a harsh scrubber.)

Any recs for a new can opener? This is the highest rated one of my online short list so far. Thoughts?
I used to go through can openers like no one’s business which is odd given that I don’t open a lot of cans. I have an electric one - Cuisinart Stainless - that is very good but it doesn’t sit on the counter because I don’t open many cans and I have tennis elbow so reaching up to get it from the cupboard is painful. Sometimes I revert back to the handheld one in the drawer which is basically a waste of space piece of shit because it doesn’t open the can and then I have to risk my life with a butter knife and the sharp edges of the can to try to access the contents of the can. No matter where I am shopping I am ALWAYS on the lookout for a better manual can opener, just in case of an apocalypse or even just a power outage. For those of you wondering about the need for a BIFL can opener, please know there are some of us out here just barely hanging on until we find that one. ☺️
