Seeking Stainless Steel Pan Set!

Budget: $300-$450 ( I can go up to $500, but prefer not to )

My family and I tend to cook almost every day, sometimes multiple times a day. Our current pans are okay — but we’re looking for better pans that can really get ripping hot without issue + good heat distribution.

We can also do different types of pans, but i’ve heard stainless steel is usually the best for home cooks. Would love to hear if i’m wrong on this!

Thank you all in advance.
