I have my aunts pans, Meyers which have been excellent and Stella which have all been good.
There is a set of Prestige pans from the 90s in the cupboard from my Dad’s place.
All in perfect condition

We got a John Lewis pan to replace one that broke and it is great. Nice tight fitting lid.
We have a motley collection of various old pots and pans, and a few nicer ones.
We have a wide le creuset stainless steel one that is really nice to cook with. We have a similar sized/style random brand one and it is noticeably worse to use.
we have them, been using them 20 odd years. I don’t think the modern ones are anywhere near as good
The Robert Welch pans we got 20 odd years ago have been v good

18/10 Stainless Steel
Is this the key thing? 
I used to do this but for years now have had an All-Clad one that will last forever. If All-Clad are induction compatible I’d definitely recommend them as built to last.

18/10 Stainless Steel (with an allminium layer).
18/10 is bog-standard stainless steel, nothing special.
18/10 is just a term in common usage by (predominantly) cooking utensil manufacturers - 18/10 = 18% chrome, 10% nickel. 304 stainless is pretty much the same (within allowable chemical composition limits)
Actually, 316 stainless has better corrosion resistance due to 3-4% of molybdenum, which is why it is used by manufacturers of marine quality equipment, surgical apparatus etc.
304 is considerably cheaper though, which is possibly why it is used for pans…

Rolex use 316 for their Stainless Steel bracelets.
I can’t afford Rolex pots and pans 
The movie how they manufacture looks nice as well.

The video showed a stainless steel handle though and that set has cast iron handle which I think look lovely.
