    Look after it (especially the interior enamel - read Le Creuset’s instructions on their website) and it’ll do you for life.

      Yeah, I’m not looking to baby it and keep it 100% pristine but I’m gonna try to keep it going for the rest of my life.

        You’re not supposed to keep it pristine, you’re supposed to keep it making awesome food !

    Good choice, if you can afford them.I have a similar one by the same brand. Even the same colour. They’re very heavy, but it will last longer than I will.

      Yeah. At a regular price I could never convince myself to get one. I do believe they’re worth what Le Creuset are asking for them however. The enamel is very high quality. A cheaper piece will do the same jobb though.

    We use ours several times a week. Good for making bread in, stews, any other meat in sauce type meals.

    I love these enamelled cast irons and that’s a really sharp color.

      I had an undbranded one from a store before this one and it was great! Especially at €40. I hated the handles though. They were slightly underdimensioned and tended to try to break your thumbs when cleaning. Small thing that got annoying over the years. Gave it to someone who needed one.

    Looking good!

    What’s the size of this one?

    Also, if you don’t mind me asking, what was the sale price?

      It’s the 5L 24cm one, a good size tbh! It was 50% off, which is still almost €200.

      The latest thing I did was to braise pork ribs for 8 hours. Came out real nice and jucy. Falling off the bone.

    The wife uses hers to make rice. NGL it makes it twice as good as out of the rice cooker.
