 Why should you pay the price of Le Crueset? November 24, 2008
A Vocal Opinion (Central Florida)
I own a 7.5 qt. Le Creuset bouillabaisse pot and love it, but I wanted something smaller for everyday and small jobs without paying Le Creuset prices. I took a chance and got the Lodge 3 qt pot. I love it! Performance and maintenance are identical. The Lodge cast iron seems to be thicker and consequently scorches less easily than the Le Creuset. For 1/4 the price it is a no brainer. All we need now is for Lodge to make more pieces and colors available.
 Lodge Enameled Cast-Iron 3 Qt Dutch Oven November 22, 2008
Sheila Mcgrath
This is a fairly good dutch oven for the price. You just need to baby it a little. My experience after a year of regular use according to the instructions included with the pan -
Pros: cooks evenly, holds the heat, nice size, attractive
Cons: lid does not sit tightly on pan (good for slowly reducing, but not for retaining moisture in the oven) stains easily, enamel cannot tolerate the heat of browning meat, after a while in use cannot be soaked because tiny enamel faults start to rust - especially around the rim
I brown meat and vegetables in another pan, and then make the stew/braise in this pan if I want a long, slow reduction of the liquid. I do not think it equal to a LeCreuset, but the price seems fair for what it is.

Joanne G. Browne (Ivoryton, CT USA)
Totally love this product. Color is fantastic and I've made some great recipes in this dutch oven. Recommend it and give it 100% rating!
It's not the biggest dutch oven out there, but for smaller quanties, this fits the bill. PS I also have the bigger size one too in the same color and also love it!

This pan is wonderful. I use it every day: for frying, stewing, etc. I love cast iron but I want a pan I can soak.
 Heats Well, But Stains Easily August 26, 2008

Well, I wanted to believe these would be as good as it's French Competition. It heats well, that's fine, but I find that food sticks, and it stains very easily. I always have to use a scour pad after use to get it looking clean.
