Just to insert a contrary view, I have had an All-Clad non-stick pan for 15 years and it still has all its 'nonstick-ness'. I use only wooden spoons, and wooden and plastic spatulas when cooking, and I wash it by hand (no dishwasher), which might have extended its life. It still works like a charm.
