If electricity is so much better for the world than natural gas and so efficient then why do electric companies generate using natural gas?

Politics
Nothing common sense involved there

I disagree.
My question was more rhetorical in nature.
Natural gas is cheap enough and efficient enough to make electrical generation economically feasible aka profitable.

Has anyone tried/used the madein brand? Seems like their products get pretty good reviews, prices are a little lower than hexclad. 30% or so?

We bought the 12 piece Hexclad set then added the deep pan. LOVE THEM! the best cookware I have ever owned. Worth every penny and then some. Their customer service is insanely good too. One small pot looked like one of the "dots" had fallen off. So i sent a pick just to see what would happen - they had a replacement in the mail same day no questions.

Here is a recent write up

From the write up sandy added I'm all in Hex and now that they have their new TerraBond out (and has been for a while) I think I'm ALL THE WAY in now.....

I haven't seen the brands posted so can't comment on them but if you like them and they work well then they work!

PS, I have always been one to go to the kitchen section and look at the new pan sets ALL the time....since getting the Hex......well I haven't even been in a kitchen section or looked online for any..... As I noted in the review we still have our 3 ply stainless set (AL core) NEVER giving these up and they will NEVER wear out, then the Hex and a couple non-sticks for eggs, however, the new Hex may replace those so it will be down to just Mrs Civils non-stick oatmeal 1 qt pot.....

I looked at Granitestone.
Seemed decent quality. Downside is not compatible with induction.

So this is interesting...

I received my 12" pan today from Wayfair.

On the packaging it says "Induction". I thought of you immediately when I saw it.

I love cooking with gas. But our silly b!tch NY governor. Is trying to ban gas appliances. It's on hold now.

yeah she sucks....only thing worse is the incoming NYC mayor! Thankfully I am not in NYC. I love natural gas cooking that I have here in NY. The propane cooking I have in the PA house is horrible, slow, slow, slow. I will go induction on my next house down south.

Oh yeah, they picked a good one there. I'm also happy I'm not in NYC!

A magnet does stick to it. So it can be used on a induction cooktop.
