Lefthand has it right about Lodge cast iron. Just don't pay twice as much at Williams Sonoma, buy them at an outdoor store like Academy Sports. Half the price for the same pan in their camping section.
If you use non-stick skillets, they just never last longer than a few years. I got a good set at Costco a few years back.
My mom and MIL are still using the copper-bottomed RevereWare they got as wedding presents 50+ years ago. I grew up shining those copper bottoms as part of doing the nightly dishes. I only own one, and do *not* insist that it gets shined.... I figure it will conduct heat the same even if it's tarnished.
