This page is the evidence, scoped to Gear Review YouTube. Where the full non-stick cookware evidence adds up to a finding, it is written up separately.

But, if you’re looking for a non-stick pan, I don’t recommend buying Hestan ProBond TITUM.
Prudent Reviews earns commission on this. Stated in the source: “Those are affiliate links so I’ll earn a commision if you click and buy, but at no extra cost to you.” Kept and labelled rather than dropped: a paid endorsement is still evidence, and you should be the one to decide what it is worth.
The other collections are expensive too. The CopperBond pan is $420, ProBond TITUM is $270, and ProBond without the non-stick coating is $250.

I love the design and performance of this pan, but regardless of how durable the coating might be, you should never spend that much money on a non-stick pan that will eventually need to be replaced.

Not a recommendation for a specific product: technique, materials and what to look for in non-stick cookware. Citable on its own terms.

Cites durability (against), price (against)

For comparison, I also ran this test on a traditional non-stick pan. And as you can see, the knife cuts right through the non-stick coating.
Cites coating durability (against)
Turns out non-stick pans like Teflon use coatings called PTFE that over time can leech chemicals into your food. This can cause things like cancer, liver damage, and reproductive issues.
Cites flavour impact (against), safety (against)
When using nonstick, we put them in the dishwasher and sometimes you can slightly taste the food that you previously cooked in it before, especially things like fish or even the detergent from the dishwasher.
Computed only from claims about non-stick cookware by people we have grounds to call Gear Review YouTube, so the axes answer “according to Gear Review YouTube” rather than “according to everyone”.

These are separate measurements, not components of a score. They are never added together, and there is no overall rating, because which of them matters depends on what you are buying the thing for. An axis that says no evidence means nobody has spoken about it, not that the answer is low.
