You'll never get a good crepe, and after a while, not only will the pan you choose be covered in scratches, but you'll also have to replace it due to wear and tear. Always choose aluminum, ceramic, or stone. Make sure the handle is long enough to avoid burns, and that it's covered in a heat-resistant material, ideally ergonomic.
