Many, many years ago I bought a small (9") green eco-brand (?) pan just so that I could fry eggs when I was visiting my daughter in St. Augustine. When I cook over easy eggs, I prefer a small pan and flip the eggs over rather than use a spatula. Needless to say, you need a good non-stick pan.
I know that my daughter does use it herself, when I'm not visiting, and that pan is still a clean and non-stick as the day I bought it.
Personally, I've got a set of Emiril anodized aluminum pans. They're pretty good and have a lifetime warranty. I just swap 'em out for a new set every 7-8 years at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.
