I believe in that 101 year warranty... (Rating: 4.00) Review : Simply put: I can see this piece lasting a century, in as great shape as when it was new. This was my first Le Creuset piece (the large frying pan being second), and I bought it while it was on sale. I thought it would be too small to be truly useful but affordable enough for an introduction to Le Creuset. This french oven is indestructible. The enameled finish isn't going anywhere, no matter how hard you scrub. Plus the sheer weight of these pieces causes the heat to evenly distribute and hold in heat. And while I was correct in forecasting that I'd rather have a larger french oven, I've at least found that it's the perfect size and medium for cooking white rice. I'd say performance rates a a 5 star, but I have to remove one star for the size and also for the color white. I picked white because I was looking for a subtlety that the other colors didn't offer, but I found that the brown stains that form on the bottom of the pan on occasion are that much more noticable. So you're either going to forget about removing them, or end up buffing away with the Ajax more often than if you chose any other color. The Best Tools Create The Best Foods! (Rating: 5.00) Review : This is a fantastic pot. Heats very evenly and holds high temperatures for long periods of time. A breeze to wipe clean and looks fantastic from stove to table . you must towel dry when you wash. But the most fantastic piece of cooking equipment I have ever owned! Super important that you never drop or bump it too hard or the enamel will crack and it will be ruined. Baby it!!! I recommend it even for the beginning cooks. You good foods will come out master pieces! Great size, great value. (Rating: 5.00) Review : I so enjoy this pot. It heats evenly and retains heat. I can make a pot of something after school and then turn the stove/oven off and the food is still fairly warm when the kids want dinner. With the two quart size, I can experiment effortlessly with healthier (no salt) dishes for myself while the family enjoys something else. It's a pretty pan that lives on our stove, a gentle reminder to drag out a cookbook and try something new. It's cooking literally outside the box. :-) Great pan, but a little on the expensive side.. (Rating: 4.00) Review : I love cooking in this pan. I love cooking in cast iron utensils in general of which I have a few (from Lodge). It looks great and cleans well. I don't understand the high price, however. It's just enamel on cast iron. Sure, the colors are attractive but then you don't get the special flavors you get from contact of the food with the iron as you do in the Lodge utensils. It's not some hi-tech product and you cannor really justify the cost. If this is expensive, the rest of the colors at $20 more are prohibitively costly. I can't see myself getting any more of Le Creuset products unless I get them in some special deal (as I did this one) or received them as gift. Homemakers Secret for Success (Rating: 5.00) Review : This pot is just wonderful! My husband claims everytime I use Le Creuset the meals just come out perfect so, as you can imagine I'm using them everyday now. I am a "Happy Homemaker" and I take the job of creating tasty meals to heart even though I am only cooking for two (my husband and myself). If you love anyone get this pot for them, if you enjoy cooking get this pot for yourself! I also have the 5 1/2 French oven and the 2 3/4 oven as well and all of them are used daily... they can take on fried chicken or a delicate wine sauce and still look perfect when the job is done not to mention serving up the meal... Just beautiful sitting on the table! And clean up? FORGET ABOUT IT! Cleans like a dream come true, you won't believe until you do it yourself. Makes me want to cook right now... maybe I will. For your sake don't waste time and money on the "cheap stuff" pay a decent price now and have it for life. |
