Perfect first cast-iron Dutch oven

This cast-iron Dutch oven was so easy to use and clean. It’s a beautiful color and holds heat well. I’ll be looking to purchase more items later. This doesn’t have anything to do with the Dutch oven itself, but just be sure to look at the promotions before you check out. I missed out on a three-piece freebie because I didn’t see it until it was too late.

Perfect Dutch Oven

This is ultimately the perfect lifetime dutch oven. I have had one in yellow for over 25 years and I bought this one for my daughter who says she come across recipes all the time that call for a dutch oven. It's a bit pricey but it will last a lifetime and you will LOVE this piece.

Worth the investment

I bought this for my husband so he could make his round Italian bread. The oven makes it so crispy and golden that he is obsessed.

my second dutch oven, the first one was better

For the high price, I expected the dutch oven to be smooth inside. There were some tiny areas where there were some tiny dots (dent) inside the pot. I wish for a smooth cooking surface. This bothers me when I am cooking, However, I am still able to use it. Also, there was an area that does not have the off white paint inside the hole of the pot lid. I have to make sure that it is screwed tight so that, the moisture will not seep inside the metal handle of the pot lid.
