The real issue is with the people when using them and scolding the shit out of them cooking on way too high of a temp and also scratching them with metal utensils... Non stick pans are fine as long as you know what you're doing

If you have a good quality non stick pan and you treat it right it will never give you any problems and last a long time. Personally I prefer cooking with cast iron or stainless steel. I keep some non stick pans and pots around though because I find them really convenient for when you want to just reheat some food. All those metal cookwares need to get pretty hot to get nonstick, and if I'm just trying to thaw out the oil or something so the dish can be eaten properly, I don't want to cook it further in the process.

If over heating is a problem give some indication. Tefal has the red mark when it's at working temp but nobody has an over temp indicator. Electronic temp indicators cost less than 5 euros, there must be some colour change material like Tefal uses. When the ok marker shows up it's good, when the over temp starts showing, turn the heat down. No more smoking oil or burning non-stick coverings. We have the technology, and it's already partially used in Pans... so why isn't it widespread. I'd buy a set.
Also if using Teflon then only use Teflon or silicone cooking implements. Never metal, avoid wood.

Back to Tefal, have seen a set of their pans, years old, bent and scratched outside but the cooking surface has only seen their Teflon spoons and spatulas and they were immaculate.

they are not all safe. You must check what it's made of, especially in North America.

Avoid non stick, unless it's ceramic.

Just use stainless and learn how to use it
