I have the same issue with eggs. I use a fair amount of coconut oil when I do eggs. I like to butter my burger buns and brown them on the stove. I’ve never been able to get them to brown evenly. I have a brand new Kitchen Aid stove that’s electric, so that could be the issue…. Or sure though.For what it's worth - I did end up buying the HexClad pans and the wife does like them. Mostly.
For most things, the HexClads are nice and mostly stick free. The biggest issue is really breakfast time. Many mornings the wife will take some bread, butter it, cut a hole in the center and put an egg in the center. This setup seems to love the hexclad texture and will, more times than not, love to stick to it.
I also tend to make scrambled eggs for myself each morning. Scrambled eggs also love to stick to the texture. Not enough to make cleaning hard (cleaning is super easy) but enough to be annoying.
When I was first looking for new pans I also checked the Project Farm youtube channel but he didn't have any reviews on any. Of course, after I buy a set of pans he publishes a review.
Based off some of his testing, I ended up buying a 10" OXO pan and have only used it to make fried and scrambled eggs for myself, but it's a night and day difference!
Both the OXO and the HexClad are stupid easy to clean but neither scrambled or fried eggs stick to the OXO like they do the Hex Clad.
I actually caught the wife yesterday morning using my OXO pan to cook her breakfast. She now wants the 12" OXO as well.
Hex Clads are very nice and do a great job on most things. Just not eggs, in my opinion.
