Not sure about this cheap pans. Bought a non stick Paella pan in Spain. Eventually the non stick started to fail but as it was extraordinarily thick and heavy I couldn't bring myself to bin it. I eventually managed to season it. It works perfect now and I doubt it is due to the non stick. Which is still there except in the centre where it is completely worn away. It is about 12 maybe 15 years old. Simply not cleaning it seems to season it perfect.
I have a 14-inch nonstick restaurant-style pan that I can use to make Paella.
I've never made it yet, but I still plan to soon. I think that I'm pretty good at making taste-tempting mouth-watering meals, and I want to try my hand at making Paella! I want it to be good the FIRST time around.
