Non stick pans

I've never had one of these and have thought of investing in a non stick set but would like some information first. Is it true that you don't need to use oil?
Is there a difference between the cheap and more expensive sets?
Where is the best place to purchase a set?

i ditched non-stick pans a few years ago and bought john lewis own brand stainless steel. much better in my opinion, would never go back to non-stick. however, i agree that a non-stick frying pan is a different matter, i would always use a non-stick one although i'm not convinced that the more expensive ones are necessarily better. i have two different size non-stick frying pans, with lids, from aldi, cost about a tenner each. i've had them a few years now and have absolutely no complaints, the non-stick surface is as good as new.
I only use stainless steel now. I never found a non-stick coating that lasted for more than a year or so at the most.
If you do go for non-stick Wendy the main thing to remember is never use metal utensils with them - only use nylon (plastic) or wood. The more expensive non-stick surfaces last much longer than the cheap items. I suppose two general rules would be to avoid cheap pans at all costs and only buy the best quality you can afford.
