from $87.95
Hamilton Beach 5-Quart Deep Fryer offers a black finish and operates with knob controls. It features a 5-quart capacity and assembled dimensions of 15.5 inches wide, 14.5 inches deep, and 10.8 inches high.
Avoid massive 15-piece sets; you only need a few high-quality pieces (skillet, saucepan, stockpot). Fully clad stainless steel distributes heat much better than pans with just a thick base. Available from $87.95.
Cookware has no energy cost but requires appropriate utensils and cleaning supplies. Non-stick pans are consumables and must be replaced every few years, while cast iron lasts generations.
