Tramontina Professional 14-Inch Frying Pan vs Winco AFP-10A 10" Aluminum Fry Pan

Buy the Tramontina if you want one large non-stick pan for family cooking, eggs and oven finishing. Buy the Winco if you want a tough, uncoated workhorse for high heat, searing and restaurant-style use. The Tramontina's coating makes cleanup easy but wears out over time; the Winco's bare 3.5mm aluminum takes abuse and lasts, but food sticks and it needs seasoning or oil. Owners of both brands rate them as solid value for their type.

• Choose the Tramontina Professional 14-inch if you cook for a crowd, want non-stick release and oven-safe use, and prefer a hanging loop for storage.
• Choose the Winco 10-inch if you want a durable bare-aluminum pan for high-heat searing, gas or electric stoves, and NSF-listed kitchen use.
