And, stainless steel is not going to as good for distribution of heat. So, if you are thinking about a stainless steel cookware set, for optimum results there ought to be different layers of metals on the bottom of the pan that will help spread out the heat.

Second, consider longevity. Even though all metal cooking equipment can last quite a few years, stainless steel will often keep its appearance longer than other metals.
