Since we are going on about cookware and comfortable handles, perhaps I should do a bit of shilling for the cookware that I own - Cristel Mutine. These are made in France, have a aluminum core construction that goes up the side of the cookware ensuring even heat distribution, have no rivets on the cooking side of the pan, and most importantly - they have detachable handles. They look like this:
The detachable handle function means that you can store the pans easily, they stack up and nest within each other (of course you need to protect your non-stick pan). You can remove the handle when you transfer the pan to the oven. and you can choose from a range of handles in different colours and materials. There is a wide range of pans available along with a range of inserts and accessories, e.g. a pasta cooking insert for your stock pot which also turns your stock pot into a handy deep fryer.
