Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lodge Color Enameled Cast-Iron 6-Quart Dutch Oven, Island Spice
Customer Review: Awesome Dutch Oven
Summary: 5 Stars
I really debated buying this pot since everyone I know LOVES the Le Creuset version. I just couldn't bring myself to spend $300 on something when I could buy this one for 50 bucks.
I am NOT sorry. This is my favorite kitchen item now. I love it. I have made stew, pot roast, soups, Ropa Vieja and everything comes out fabulous.
It does take a bit of time for the pot to heat up but once it does, you can simmer with a very low flame for the size of the pot. It heats evenly, doesn't stick and cleans easily.
It is heavy and must be hand washed but I hand wash all my pans anyway.
If you are in the market for this type of pot, buy this one. You will not be sorry.
Customer Review: picture perfect
Summary: 5 Stars
Wanted to write to let you know that this was a fantastic gift for a family member.. i was skeptical about the price, time to be shipped, etc. and was sure id have a chipped dutch oven when all was said and done, but it was just like brand new, exactly like in the picture, and shipping was super quick! Customer Review: Don't Cook At High Temperature!
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this dutch oven on Amazon because it was on sale and looked attractive. Unfortunately, I used it without reading the directions that said it shouldn't be used at temperatures over 400 degrees.
I made No Knead Bread with the dutch oven and cooked it at 450 degrees. Sure enough, the knob on the lid cracked and when I took out the bread, there was a nickel-sized hole in the enamel finish at the bottom of the pot.
Just a word of warning that if your recipe calls for temperatures over 400 degrees, this oven is not for you.
Customer Review: Exellent value; great results
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this pot for several months and it has performed flawlessly. Gumbos, pasta sauces, etc. all cook very well and have not stained or discolored the white enamel in the least. Can't beat it at this price, much less $29 that I paid on sale!!!Customer Review: A proper dutch oven
Summary: 5 Stars
Heavy, wide, cast iron with an enamel coating. Lid fits very tight. You can even boil water in it with not much steam escaping. I don't think the knob is recommended for the oven, but mine has survived quite nicely. Muh cheaper than many others *coughcoughLeCrucetcough*. Absolutely worth your money.
