They are made of electro-chemical processes and are resistant to scratches and non-stick.

The main problem with stainless steel cookware is that it is a very poor conductor of heat, which is obviously necessary for cooking. Also, heat does not spread evenly t. To alleviate these problems, most quality stainless pots have a core of copper or aluminum or steel placed between the layers of the vessel at the bottom. The use of these metals distributes heat far more effectively than steel alone.
Other steel con is that it tends to discoloration over high heat, and its surface may pit with prolonged exposure to salty environment.
Aluminium counter

Another disadvantage is that some people believe that the use of aluminum cause Alzheimer's disease. FDA and the majority of scientists believe that there is no danger, but if you're one of those to "Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure", use stainless steel utensils.
