For my stainless pans, I prefer SOS pads. Nothing's quite as effective as steel wool for scouring metal, IMHO. And I prefer stainless because you can take steel wool to it. (Circular reasoning? Moi? *g*)
If it does the job, why mess with it?
Nonstick pans are useful, but I think my cheap spatula has scraped most of the nonstick coating off my equally cheap nonstick frying pan. It was a nice alternative to oiling down the pan (or extensive post-cooking scrubbing, if when I burned stuff) while it lasted.
