About Le Creuset... Since 1925, artisans have been crafting Le Creuset cookware in the French village of Fresnoy Le Grand. Each piece of Le Creuset cast iron cookware is handcast, polished, double enamel-coated and then fired, resulting in some of the finest quality cookware available. Cast iron is one of the best materials for distributing heat gently and thoroughly and is ideal for induction ranges. The strong enamel coating will not absorb odors or flavors, and is easy to clean. Heavy lids securely seal in moisture and flavor. Le Creuset cookware comes in a variety of sizes, colors and styles to match any kitchen and cooking preference. So lasting, you'll pass it on to the next generation of promising cooks.

by Peter (New Canaan, CT) 1 review Personally, I like the Staub line, but this LeCreuset was an ideal size for my needs. The color goes with pratctically everything. As I'll be briefly using it in a very hot oven, I opted for the optional stainless knob. Some folks put LeCreuset products in the dishwasher, but I've found that some patient soaking is all that is needed to clean them.
by Krista (Groveland, FL) 1 review I purchased this Dutch Oven during a great holiday sale. Normally I wouldn't have paid $200+, but for $163, I couldn't pass it up. It's high quality and I'm looking forward to using it during the winter months.
by Laura (Bryan, TX) 1 review I've bought other similar dutch ovens, well known brands that have chipped and discolored and are very heavy in comparison. The cleanup on this beautiful oven is easy, no sticking, no staining. Plus it's just so darn beautiful I leave it out on the stove everyday.
by andrea (Stamford, VT) 1 review I know that color variations are normal in this pan, however, the bottom of the pot was at least three shades lighter than the lid. I was a bit dissapointed. I have not used it as it was a Christmas gift but did decide to keep it because it seemed to much work to return.
by Luz (Calabasas, CA) 37 reviews I've wanted one for years. This is the best investment I've made for my cookware. I've been finding excuse to make things that require a dutch oven. The color is stunning, even better in person. :) Now I need an excuse to buy more!
