Aluminum (hard anodized) is ok if and only if it's super thick and heavy. The biggest problem with most aluminum pans is that they're flimsy so they get hot spots and warp and generally are garbage. All-Clad, Calphalon, and others make very high quality aluminum pans.

I always recommend finding somewhere that has pans for you to pick up and look at then maybe go online to buy them, that way you don't get garbage that photographs well.
