For comparison:
* I don't know how old my cast iron skillet is because I literally bought it from an antique store but I've had it for over a decade and it's in better shape than ever.
* My $60 Lodge Dutch oven is over a decade old and has been used hundreds of times.
* My stainless steel All-Clad skillet is relatively new at 5-6 years but is no worse than the day I got it.
(I also used to default to comment in bullet lists, because that's how I think. I have realized most people don't do that, so I have worked on writing in a more fluent style in order to appear less rigid. :) )
I think my main complaint is with e.g. IKEA changing their default frying pan coating dramatically without clear communication.
