worth every penny (Rating: 5.00)
Review : I am the biggest bargain shopper on the planet and have held off buying Le Creuset because of the price (and I thought they were too heavy). I finally bit the bullet and bought a couple pieces and am now a total Le Creuset worshipper!! I seriously recommend upgrading to the "all surface" (heavier) pieces rather than just the bakeware/microwave pieces. Having the ability to pan sautee something on the stove top and then pop it directly into the oven is a fantastic timesaver and you have less to wash. My mother covets my Le Creuset collection and so I am surprising her for christmas with this 11" oval (my favorite of the bunch) for her very own. Because they are of such high quality materials they should last a very long time, if not forever. As long as you don't drop it on a concrete garage floor like I did (it now has a crack but is still usuable), it's a great investment and worth every penny!
