    What is wrong with them, looks to me nothing should go wrong.

    They are plain stainless steel, unless that is the problem.

      i'd rather save my $19 then throw it around buying these pans.
      quality pans are an investment.

        Nope. Pots and pans are not an investment any more than good quality camera lenses.

        An investment means I can buy today and sell later at a higher price.

        A quality item is a quality item. It may be less trouble than the cheap version. It may produce better results. It may last longer. What it doesn't do is set up a fund for your retirement.

        Sorry but I hate the "x is an investment" meme.

        @syousef:
        The definition of an investment can also mean a sacrifice undertaken with the expectation of a worthwhile result.

        A purchase of a quality item is a sacrifice of an economic benefit with the expectation that the use of the asset will last longer and produce better results than a cheaper counter part.

        It's an investment not in terms of monetary returns as you refer to but an investment none-the-less.

        @dasher86:

        Nonetheless I think that the expectation when people say these things is that they will be better off financially in the long run. Whereas that often isn't true. I agree with buying high quality where it is required, but putting this in terms usually reserved for financial gain is a bad idea.

        I presume the dictionary definition you looked up and quoted without attributing is the same one I got googling. If so you'll also note the synonyms: sacrifice, surrender, foregoing, loss, relinquishment, forfeiture

        and the example:
        "a substantial investment of time and energy"

        I don't think you were trying to tell me that i should make a sacrifice for the sake of the Gods of good pots and pans.

        yes that is exactly what i'm trying to tell you.
        All hail the sauce pan man who is made of good quality pots and pans! =)
