The Best Dutch Oven March 7, 2008
siriuschef from New York, NY

"Yes it's a little pricey and a little heavy but it's eye-catchingly beautiful and the best cast iron dutch oven you will find on the market today. Le Creuset makes the best quality cast iron cookware available today. This French oven is extremely versatile and perfect for anything which requires long slow cooking either on the stovetop or in the oven. An iron pot takes longer to heat up than say stainless steel or aluminum but it holds heat longer than either. It cooks everything so perfectly pot roast, soup, stew, pasta sauces, chili, gumbo, braising, slow-cooking, etc and it is incredibly easy to clean without scubbing by soaking overnight in hot, soapy water. And best of all it will outlast almost all of your other cookware. If you are debating whether you should buy a Le Creuset French Oven, stop debating and just buy it, and I guarantee you will not regret it."

Every cook's must have item. November 12, 2007
oldswede from Chicago, Illinois

"This oven is extremely efficient and easy to clean, instead of turning your oven on in the summertime to roast a chicken, you can do it on your stove top and since it locks in all of the flavor and juices it may be one of your best dishes yet. I use this dish 2 to 4 times a week and don't know how did without it. Excellent cookware."

My absolute favorite. October 19, 2007

"By far my most favorite pan. Cooks and cleans up like magic. This is the one I reach for when ever I am cooking for a crowd, or a huge batch of chili."
