Le Creuset LS2501-342 Enameled Cast Iron 13.25 quart Signature Round Dutch Oven Flame

This is a fantastic Dutch oven! It will be used for years to come! It holds a huge amount of anything! Love the color too! If I was rich I would have all the colors! Only downside...it's heavy and it's costly. Clean up: fits in my sink (barely) always cleans like new....

Its Le Creuset, you can't get a better pot anywhere

I was initially very excited when I ordered this item, it came in a very poor state. Although the item was advertised as "Acceptable" the item was absolutely destroyed including the box (important for an item 25+ lbs) and the item had multiple cracks more than the 1" advertisers. LC is known for lifetime products but im afraid the cracks/chips will turn into larger ones and eventually end up in my food. I would just advise anyone to be careful about purchasing this item.

Do you have food particles burnt on your Le Creuset enamel pots? My wife HAD to have a complete set of Le Creuset, so Christmas was VERY expensive last year. There is also a learning curve to cooking with these enamel coated iron pots which resulted in burnt-on food in the bottom. No cleanser in the house (and we own them all), including Le Creuset's own brand of cleaner, even started to remove the burnt food residue. My wife was near tears as she saw her new, very expensive, cookware now containing brown and blackened patches all over the bottoms. I grew up with Bon Ami using it all around the house but I hadn't seen it in stores for decades. I had even forgotten about it until I was watching an old movie re-run of "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" (the cleanser name was used as a running gag during the movie). My wife looked at me with much skepticism when I mentioned trying Bon Ami to clean her new pots (she thought Bon Ami was a made-up name in the movie). Additionally, she has always maintained the "new" cleansers would be better than the old ones because of advancements in science and chemistry. Bon Ami household cleanser has been around since 1886 and contains no harsh chemicals or abrasives (how many original products are still being manufactured after 129 years that DON'T work?...not many, I'd say). I got a can of Bon Ami and, with my wife looking over my shoulder, arms crossed and a sneer on her face (she was sure Bon Ami wouldn't work OR it would ruin the pot forever) I applied a sprinkle of Bon Ami and, after a little elbow grease, my wife was beaming. Whew... Don't waste your time and money on other cleansers, Bon Ami and a sponge were all I needed to clean even the most burnt-on food from our Le Creuset. Now our pots look brand new again. FANTASTIC CLEANSER when I was a kid 50 years ago and, thankfully, the manufacturer has not tampered with its original formula making Bon Ami the 129 year reigning champ among household cleansers. We're ordering another case...
