I use the Le Creuset iron cookware. It's supposed to work well with
induction ranges. I use gas so I'm going by what other people have told me
and what it says on their web site. Their cookware does have an enameled
interior that, while it's not non-stick, cleans easily. For most cooking
tasks I'll swear by their stuff although I do keep a few copper pans and
skillets for when you need fast even heating.
The only other problem is that it's not cheap. If you're lucky, there is
an outlet store in your area that sells overstocks and seconds.
