I got the Tefal simply because of the price... I was between an expensive one and a reasonably cheap one. It was £15 and if it lasts a year I'll feel that it was worth it.
As far as the Le Crueset one... do they make something similar to the Tefal one I have now, or are they more like the pan I used to use?
The difference being that the Tefal one I have now heats up very fast to a temperature I can use. It uses no oil. It cooks far more slowly than the old pan. The old pan was heavy, used lots of oil, took a while to heat up. Cooked steaks great, cooked things fast. Spat oil all over the hob and was a pain to clean up.
