Consumer reports does a non-stick pan test where they fry an egg without oil repeatedly until it starts to stick. The point is that normal use degrades non stick surfaces, so every non-stick pan, no matter how fancy, will one day be garbage.

Don't get me wrong, I use both non-stick and metal surface pans. I think they both have their place, but I think of non-stick pans as expendable.

I do this too for weight distribution, but I don't make sure it's symmetrical. I'm worried someone in my family will be surprised by the uneven weight of the carton when they pull it off the shelf and drop it.
