Can't beat the traditional heavy copper pan with a tinned inside! They don't come apart. (No good for induction, I guess).
Coatings have got very much better, though. I have a lovely big cast aluminium pan from Lidl, with a (so far) very tough coating. A third of the weight of Le Creuset, and much quicker and more even heating, no problem with burning.
Rust on a microwave is extremely flammable! We didn't notice the rust on ours until there was a fire.
Really? Not on our old Philips the door fell off one day due to tin worm, Was it perhaps made of aluminium not steel? Brian
Just replaced our microwave oven today, I was looking for one with a SS cavity but after applying other filters for power, size, capacity and colour I could not find one with a SS cavity, so it is a grey enamel cavity but at least that answers the type of paint used.
