Reply to comment by petula_75 in Just bought an All-Clad D5 Stainless Steel frying pan for the first time. Just cooked eggs in it and they slid right out. Wish us luck! by femifist26

Because it looks pretty when I set it on the table and serve a beautiful meal out of it.

Why would anyone buy a Mercedes when a Toyota takes you from point A to point B just the same?

Luxury cars have far more performance and convenience features than other budget automobiles beyond aesthetics.

It's not a really good comparison to these pans, where the massive price disparity is just aesthetics. It's also a fallacy to act like anyone can't use a lodge at the table and serve a beautiful meal from it - it's done all the time in magazines, ads, shows, blogs and in homes.
