Tastewise I would not necessarily expect a big difference between the teflon coated and the stainless steel ones. Cleanliness rulez ! In case of the stainless steel one, cleaning is normally easy. Not sure if I would use teflon coated stuff. Although non sticky thus theoretically even easier to clean, I'd have fear to scrub off the coating pretty soon.
