I bought a cheap stainless pan about 20 years ago. Don't have issues with food sticking, don't have to worry abouy coatings coming off, and if the handle breaks I can make a new one.

Coating breaks down, stainless doesn't.

I have a mix of stainless steel and cast iron. I'm not terribly worried about consuming small amounts of either of those.

A bonus is that because it's all metal I can use most of it in ovens or while cooking outdoors.

Sticking isn't really that much of an issue if you're careful. I feel like non-stick would've never taken off if people knew how toxic it was in 1970.
