Essential Enamel Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Lid - 4.5 Quart - Oven-Safe Enamel Cookware up to 500° F - Heat-Retaining Braising & Roasting Pot - Non-Toxic Cookware - Island Spice Red

I have recently purchased 3 Lodge Dutch Ovens. They are a bit heavy, but I am nearly 75-years old, and I don't have a problem at all. I love this cookware! I've tried several recipes that require oven baking or preparing on my stove top. I like the fact that I can prepare most meals in the Dutch oven without using other pans or bowls. Furthermore, these Dutch ovens are VERY easy to clean! The red Lodge Cast Iron oven is beautiful!

It is heavy, of course. Cast iron cookware is heavy. Cooks evenly. Easy to use and easy to clean. The Enamel coating makes it a breeze to clean. I would recommend.

Fantastic! I used it to make sourdough bread, and it baked beautifully with a perfect crust and even cooking. The dual handles make it easy to maneuver, and it’s oven safe up to 500°F. A durable, high-quality Dutch oven that’s perfect for baking, braising, and more. love the color!

So my guy's been wanting an enameled cast iron Dutch Oven for awhile, but doesn't often splurge on kitchen stuff unless it's already edible, or for me. Therefore, I decided I wanted to get him one for his birthday. I admit, it was a semi selfish gift, as I'm sure to benefit from all the delicious junk he's going to cook in it. After spending about 5 hours getting lost in review holes and browsing every possible website ever for options, and trying to decide whether 4.5 quart or 5.5 quart was better, and whether I preferred to get him "Tiger Blood Red" or "Deeper Than Purple," and cancelling an order for a *lesser* branded model, I bit the bullet on this one... I hate the internet! Too many options! Despite the initial turmoil, I (and he) am/was very happy with the decision to go with this model. First of all, Lodge just makes good cast iron cookware. It's kind of common knowledge. The only issue I've ever really had with them are small handles, but this guy doesn't have that problem. It's sturdy and quite efficient, as it made some of the best 2-3 hour chili I've had (probably ever). These things are great for thick soups and stews. Don't forget to take it out of the oven often enough to scrape the inner bowl crusties back into whatever you're making, it gets awfully chunky and delicious in most cases, but I can't speak for every dish everyone is going to make. This is the perfect size for making enough to feed at least 4 people, probably more! We just eat a lot in this house, so it's hard to accurately gauge what the average amount of people fed would be. Lastly... that blue sure does look sharp on the stovetop!

Elder millennial that has officially become an adult because I buying these excites me! This is my collection so far. I buy one of these every 6 months as a treat to myself and will continue to do so until every pot/pan in my kitchen is of this quality. These are HEAVY! Heat Distribution is amazing and the quality is top tier. You can use these to bake, make pot roast, soups, sides almost nothing I can’t put in these! Looking forward to adding to my collection

This is my new favorite kitchen item. It is gorgeous. It also is very heavy and solidly made. It has been constantly in use since I bought it a month or so ago, whether marinating, holding leftovers in the fridge, braising pot roast in the oven or cooking rice and soups on the stovetop. The price is incredible for something this high quality. It is also the perfect size for me as a single chef. It fits a 5 serving soup recipe perfectly. If you have a family larger than 3-4, I would recommend going for at least the 6 quart. The only reason I took off one star is I'm not sure about durability. The enamel has a tiny chip on the top of the lid. It doesn't really bother me, but I really hope it isn't a sign that the enamel is going to chip in other places. I don't know how I have lived without this pot, seriously! UPDATE 10/15: I've had this pot for almost 2 years now and I don't have any chipping problems still. For the price, you cannot beat this beautiful dutch oven!

High quality.

The red is a beautiful color. Size looks perfect for what I wanted, cooking a medium pot roast, soup, or strew. Use and love LODGE products. Did much research and found this cooking pot to be substantial with a very competitive price. To order one day and receive the next day is truly amazing. Thank you AMAZON, I look forward to enjoying a yummy pot roast tomorrow.

すごくよいです。見た目や色もすてきです。お手入れも楽。 大きいので4～5人ぶん楽勝です。

Why pay all the extra for Le cruiset when these are as good as they are? Love it.

This is perfect as a kadai. A casserole. A pot. Its a multipurpose item. I made mutton curry in this without a pressure cooker. Then i fried some fishes. Its great. Previously I had to return their shallow cassorole as it was bigger than my induction and stove cooktop howevern this dutch oven is perfect. Its a great and a lovely purchase. Would love to buy other sizes also but idk why currently there isn’t much lodge enamelled dutch oven available. I thought of gifting. Will keep my eyes open if they are available anytime soom.
