You can’t expect teflon to last a lifetime. Generally any non-stick out of the box will break down over time, even fancy ceramics. If it was stainless steel, that can basically last a lifetime.

It wasn't Teflon. It's hard anodized something. I admit I don't know exactly what that means, but the claim was that it's even more durable than stainless steel... it was not.

Hard anodized aluminum. Definitely not stronger than steel. Aluminum is the same thing used in teflon cookware. Never trust manufacturers to tell you the truth.

Now I know. I really thought I was being smart this time by checking for highly rated items... this is before I learned sometimes companies buy ratings. Thanks for the advice!
