My wife and I have been longtime purchasers and users of the Oxo Good Grips nonstick pans.
We would use the heck out of the 10" skillet and buy a new one when the surface got marred or started to stick - usually after a year and a half or two years. When we recently went looking, we found that it looks like Oxo is phasing out their nonstick skillet in favor of ceramic 'nonstick' skillets.
The reviews of the ceramic 'nonstick' skillets say that the ceramic layer is surprisingly close in performance to the teflon (or similar coating) that most nonstick skillets use but that the ceramic coating doesn't even last as long as the teflon coating meaning that we would have to buy replacement ceramic nonstick pans even more frequently than we're buying the teflon pans.
So we've gone looking for other nonstick replacements and have found that the list of possible replacements is fairly short: ceramic nonstick, cast iron, carbon steel, and stainless steel. Currently we're working on using our two fairly well seasons cast iron skillets more frequently. We'll see how that goes.
