Signature Enamelled Cast Iron Oval Casserole Dish With Lid, 33 cm, 7.5 Litre, Cerise, 21178330602430

That,together with Staub,Le Creuset is the best cast iron casserole dish,and should be well cared for.

Only had this for a month. I have no complaints. It's just as I imagined, a joy to cook with and we'll worth the price. Fortunately I got it on sale too.

This item will outlast most buyers over the age of 35, if treated reasonably. We still use the big one bought for us as a wedding present in 1974. We had "other makes" for several years, but the enamel always chipped. But the old le Creuset though still good, is a little too large for a retired couple, so, hoping it'll be an heirloom, we bought this one. And it is great that the product actually improves- much easier to handle with the "new" handles. Looks classically good, cleans easily, perfect heat distribution -it's just perfect. Ok, it's a lot heavier than some other pots, but it's the best.

Very pleased with the product, excellent quality.

I have deliberated purchasing a Le Creuset casserole dish for many years. I was never quite sure that I could justify the high price tag. However, this dish has absolutely transformed our mealtimes. It truly is worth every single penny. I use it for everything from stove-top soups, to one pot roast chicken dishes and everything in between. It looks stylish, is so incredibly easy to clean and cooks food evenly whilst keeping all of the flavours trapped inside. The main thing that swung it for me was seeing my mother’s 5 year old casserole dish. It was a cheaper model but was still fairly expensive. When she bought it 5 years ago it was stunning and looked comparable to Le Creuset. After 5 years of light use, the paint has almost entirely faded and chipped. I believe that you truly do get what you pay for with Le Creuset. I am hoping to pass these dishes to my young daughters when they set up home for themselves. This size of casserole is perfect for large chickens. It is very heavy, so might not be suitable for those with limited mobility.

Was a gift for my granddaughter for Xmas . Good quality. Price really good as opposed to other suppliers

I love cooking with cast iron, and Le Creuset pots are probably my favourites for the perfection of the finish. You know you’re getting quality with this brand. The graduated reds of the cerise shade are beautiful, and both the inner and outer enamel are immaculately applied. The cream-coloured enamel coating on the inside can be prone to marking/staining (Staub’s black linings are much more forgiving here), but so far this pot is going strong. The 27cm oval size is just nice for pot roasting a medium-sized chicken with vegetables around it, as well as for casseroles and other dishes. It’s a good, mid-sized pan that’s practical for middling-sized family meals, and not overly heavy to use despite the thickness and quality of the cast iron. Very happy with my purchase.

I think they should state that the external black colour is Matt Black/Liquorice. When they say Black Satin I think they're referring specifically to the black enamel interior which I guess only the black oval casserole pots have. LC might be wanting to win over Staub enthusiasts, who claim better searing and browning of meat with black non-shiny enamel interiors. But then why only the black ovals and not the coloured ovals as well, who knows? I also have a 28cm round Matt black which has a light interior. I'm glad they didn't make the round black casseroles with a black interior as well. I actually prefer to see that a pot is clean. The idea of layers of oils building up inside a pot to develop a patina is not that attractive to me. I can do with less searing if that's the case.

Produto maravilhoso.

Très beau produit. Cuisson parfaite

I definitely waited too long to get one. Outstanding quality, heat distribution, and even cooking. My favorite piece of cookware these days. It’s big enough to roast a big chicken, so it is a bit heavy (expected given it’s iron). It is also very easy to clean, by hand or in the dishwasher.

Semplicemente fantastica! Bellissima e meravigliosa alleata in cucina. Dopo lunghe ricerche e riflessioni ho scelto la creuset tra tutte le pentole in ghisa per un motivo: la smaltatura chiara. Le altre marche hanno all'interno la smaltatura scura (nera) e non mi convincono per la possibile presenza di piombo.

Fantastic heat distribution and retention. Tenderizer meats very quickly. Good size for ribs and whole chicken.
