There is nothing like having at least one good nonstick pan in your kitchen. However if you don't take proper care of your nonstick cookware they basically could become useless to you in a very short time. The most common problem is that they get scratched or the non-stick coating begins to peel off the pan.
There are some simple guidelines you can follow to insure that your nonstick cookware set stays in good working condition for a long time. Exposing your pans to high heat can damage the nonstick coating causing it to peel or vaporize and degrade.
Some of today's nonstick coatings can withstand high heat but if you're not sure whether you have this newer coating on your pans a good rule of thumb is never use them on high heat and never use them above medium high heat.
Another good tip is to add just a little oil to the cookware before putting it on the heat. This will help you to judge whether the pan might be getting too hot. Once the oil begins to smoke the pan or pot is getting to hot.
Always use the right utensils when cooking with nonstick cookware. Heatproof utensils like nylon spatulas, wooden, or silicone coated utensils are perfect for nonstick surfaces and will not harm them.
When washing your nonstick pots and pans never use anything abrasive just use a soft sponge. If you stack your nonstick cookware when storing them you should place a paper towel between each pot or pan. This will help to prevent the surfaces from getting scratched.
