  • Love Le Le Creuset
Color: Flame Size: 2.25 Qt
This is my 8th Le Creuset pan over the past 20 years. They are the best, non toxic cookware I have seen. The white enamel does not chip, even after 20 years. The 2.2 quarts braiser is perfect for 2-4 people. I had a bigger one but got rid of it due to its heavy weight. This one is about 8 lbs with lid and pan combined. The lid is heavier than the pan. However, I have another glass lid that fits perfectly on this pan if I need to see the inside. It is very versatile and the size is perfect for many dishes. I can use it to make apple pies, chicken pot pie, bread, braised beef, stir fried veggies, omelette, and paella. I like buying smaller size pots and pans from Le Creuset. The big ones are too heavy to wash unless I want to do weight lighting each time I use them. They are so pretty that you can use them to serve directly on the table or put them on a shelf for decoration instead of storage. I have many color: red, white, orange, pink, yellow, and blue. They all look pretty! ... show more

  • Buy it for life
Color: Flame Size: 3.5 Qt
Indestructible, beautiful and an absolute joy to cook in. Can’t go wrong with LeCreuset and this was no exception. Enamel coating cleans super easy and delivers a good amount of non-sticky-ness to it. Our stove is not the best but at the same time I’d expect slightly better heat distribution—felt like the bottom heated up in spots directly above the low heat, instead of heating the bottom more evenly, which is the only drawback I can think of, assuming you already know it’s hella heavy being made of cast iron. ... show more

  • First let creuset piece and now I'm hooked
Color: Flame Size: 2.25 Qt
The price is insane for a piece of cookware it took alot of convincing to pull the trigger on the purchase. I even tried a knock off version but had to return it due to uneven cooking and poor heat retention. Day and night with you piece. It is my GO TO pan and so versatile. Flame color is loud and I almost debated returning but this color grew on me in a day. I now find it stunning and catches my eye. I keep it out all the time since I use it so much and it's gorgeous. This 2.25qt size works for me I live alone but I mean prep and/or have ppl over. The price is high but it has replaced so many of my inferior pans and the quality is undeniable so for a piece that will last you years and years...it's worth it. I now also own the 3.5 qt Dutch oven in Provence. Hooked. (And slightly poorer) lol ... show more

  • Get ripped with Le Creuset!
Color: Flame Size: 2.25 Qt
Le Creuset excellence of course! This size (2.25 qt) is perfect as a skillet/ brasier for two to three people. The enamel interior does produce a good fond for great sauces! It deglazes well with wine or broth and cleans up like a champ after the meal. The bigger (3.5 qt) is great for a 3-5 person family or when you have company. Of course, the bigger size helps build your biceps! We love Le Creuset and the expansive color palette is an added bonus. They look fantastic in your kitchen! ... show more

  • Tremendous cookware
Color: Flame Size: 3.5 Qt
I love le creuset. I have decided to use it as my primary cookware, mainly because it is both healthy and a good way to cook. I needed one more pan to use it primarily, and this is it. I had to learn and heed the instructions, but le creuset is easy to use and, surprisingly, extremely easy to clean. It’s beautiful, too. ... show more

  • Love this, mostly.
Color: Flame Size: 5 Qt
My husband gave this to me for Christmas. I’m hoping to slowly convert most of my cookware to Le Creuset. This works very well and it’s so beautiful in my kitchen. My only complaint is that I was cooking some chicken and it stuck to the pan. Possibly user error - just my need to get used to this cookware. It did clean up ok after soaking in hot water and Dawn dish soap. It has been very versatile in the many meals I have already prepared since Christmas. (About 6 weeks) Hoping to continue using this for many years to come. This has been a great investment. ... show more

  • Great product but a bit of a blight on the shopping experience
Color: Flame Size: 3.5 Qt
The 5 stars are just for the product. It's Le Creuset after all! We were disappointed that it arrived not as originally packed and it was clearly a previously returned product. Although there was nothing wrong with it, receiving someone else's reject took the edge off purchasing this top-of-the-line product at a premium price. ... show more

  • Perfect pot, but blemished
Color: Flame Size: 5 Qt
This pot was exactly what I wanted and the 5 Qt size is perfect for feeding a crowd. The only drawback is that the pot probably should have been sent to an outlet store as it has a fairly prominent blemish (more significant than blemishes from items I have purchased at an outlet store). It isn’t worth the hassle of returning, but it is unfortunate to pay full price for an imperfect product. ... show more
