Caring for cast iron or carbon steel is fairly difficult and not something most people actually want to do.
In practice hard anodized aluminium is the best compromise for people that aren't cookware geeks.

- paulcole 4y ago> Caring for cast iron or carbon steel is fairly difficult When it comes to cast iron this is clearly false. In the US, there are thousands of cast iron pans still hanging around that were used for decades or generations by non-rich non-“cookware geeks” who gasp used soap on their cast iron cookware and didn’t treat their cast iron cookware as if it were a delicate snowflake. Instead they just cooked with it, cleaned it how they wanted to, and nothing went horribly wrong.
- random42_ 4y agoWhen I cook with my cast iron, I wash it by hand using regular dishwashing soap and a non-scratching sponge. Dry it and then coat with a bit of oil before storing it away. Easier than caring for my SS where from time to time I need to use Barkeeper’s Friend to bring it back to its original looks.
