Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Signature Oval Dutch Oven with Lid, 8 Quart, Artichaut

My wife has wanted a Dutch oven for quite some time. She has used it 3 times already since Christmas and loves the color. Went with the larger 9 qt which seems to be the best size for us. It’s a little heavy, but seems well made, and cleans up pretty easily.

This is an excellent Enameled Cast Iron oven. Great the handles were also real cast iron. No worries about high temperature in oven. The color was selection was good. You can buy this one.

After many years of owning two Staubs (because I got them on sale), I finally broke down and got “the real deal!” First thing I made in it was a whole roast chicken. Man, was that good! Perfection! And the pot cleaned easily, and came out perfect. Was it cheap? No! But totally worth it. Wish I’d bitten the bullet and gotten one years ago!

I have has La Creuset cookware in the past, & they are virtually indestructible. So when the large 8qt stew pot I've been wanting came up on sale, I leapt at the chance. However, due to UPS' negligence &/or ineptitude with delivery, they have managed what I thought was impossible: they broke my new cook pot. I have no idea how, and am on the phone with UPS customer support as I type this, to find out who dropkicked my birthday present to myself off the nearby cliffs prior to delivering it to me. Amazon got me set up with a replacement so Kudos to their customer support for that. But a 20lb cookpot having a crack that goes almost the entire height of the side of the pot renders it a rather oversized (albeit expensive) paperweight. Still, I know the brand, so I'm confident this is going to behave just as all of my others have.

Estas ollas son una maravilla, junto con esta compré otras más y me encantan!! Sus colores son hermosos igual que sus diseños y su calidad es poderosa, se calientan con poco fuego y una vez calienta conservan la temperatura, y no hay nada como saber que he comprado unas ollas seguras para la salud de mi familia. Me encanta cocinar en ellas, son versátiles y se ven muy lindas en cualquier espacio de la casa.
