The Lodge cast iron Dutch oven is the size I've wished for each time I've had to remove the food I've prepped from my "French oven" because I couldn't get the cover on---without the almost $300 cost for a comparable size! The Lodge Dutch oven is partially a melted-glass product, which apparently decreases the cost without, it seems affecting performance. The Lodge is notably lighter than the higher-priced cookware, hefty but the 6 quart 16 pound piece is still easy to handle. The stainless steel knob on the cover is oven-safe to 500 degrees F, and doesn't need to be replaced for an additional cost as do those on many of the other branded lower-cost options. All exposed surfaces are seasoned for easy maintenance. Following my first use of the Dutch oven for a pork shoulder which braised slowly and beautifully in a 225 degrees F the white gloss enamel interior washed with soap and water as easily as the dinner plates!
I received the dutch oven in a timely manner. Well-packaged and protected. I have now used this dutch oven for a variety of cooking purposes. I have browned meats then roasted them in the oven. I have simmered chili on the stove. I have even used it to make bread! It has been great so far and very easy to clean. I have flimsy oven racks however and the 16lb weight + the weight of whatever I have cooking in the dutch oven cause my oven racks to sag. But what can you do? Cast-iron dutch ovens are supposed to be heavy! This product is exactly as advertised and I love it so far. Looking forward to using it for years to come!
I also own the french cast iron and enamel cookware and this is just as nice and cooks the same. I am very p[lease.
This dutch oven is fabulous. It is large enough for most cooking/frying without being overwhelmingly big. It cleans like a dream. I am now trying out recipes I couldn't do before because I only had non-stick cookware. This works for every recipe. Easy to use, easy to clean, easy to store.
I love this dutch oven. It's very well made and every bit as good as the high priced ones for a lot less. Ive used it several times and it cleans up very well. Im not sure if the manufacturers changed the knob. Several people wrote that theirs was plastic but mine is metal. I would highly recommend this to friends. I wish I had purchased more for gifts.
Always wanted one of these, researched around, love it. Sturdy, heavy and works great. My food came out perfectly and it cleaned up so easily. I didn't have to scrub or anything.
This dutch oven is a great purchase. It does everything the more expensive brands do at a fraction of the price.
What can you say about cast iron with an enamel finish!!! It doesn't get any better than that. Makes your food taste great.
Definitely recommend this piece. I use it all the time. Easy to clean, never sticks. Not as heavy as the other dutch ovens I have tried lifting in stores but cooks up food beautifully.
bought this as a gift & it was very well received.The quality of the productis very good and I was happy to see that it is made in the U.S.
