I've had my Farberware pots for about 8 years now and they still look almost new!  It's true that they are not non-stick, but as long as you stir what you're cooking frequently that is not a problem.  They're just so easy to clean - I just pop them in the dishwasher and they come out sparkling clean.  Even when I accidentally burn something (I made chili last night and some of it stuck to the bottom of the pan), I just put some warm water in the pan, let it soak while we're eating dinner, and it rinses right off.  I probably will be using them for years to come.
