Beautiful color

I fell in love at first sight when I saw the color, such a beautiful bright teal/turquoise. The design of it is awesome and I love the smaller size. Like most said, it's very heavy, which is not a deal breaker for me, but what was is how quickly the enamel chipped. Had it no more than 3 days, used once in oven (cooked beautifully btw) and once on stovetop. Noticed after second time using a chip on the corner of the handle.
Also, after the second washing the enamel was flawed on lid, best I can describe is if someone put super sticky tape then pulled off the gloss coating, there was few dots of this dullness on the pot. After 2 uses, this should NOT happen. Did not use harsh cleaning soaps or abrasives. Disappointed in enamel quality. Wish it was more durable.

I Love, Love the size!

I really enjoy the size. Food comes out moist and meats are moist and tender. The only thing that I would change is the weight of the top. It weighs almost as much as the bottom! Love your products!

this is a great cookin pan

made a pork roast w/green beans & potato wedges. Turned out excellent. The led of the pot held the right amount of moisture, kept the roast juicy, not dried out. The lid fits very tightly sealing the juices & heat in.

My first time using this product I thought my only complaint would be that it needed to be bigger (which really is only wishing for another/additional product). I loved how all the meat and vegetables browned perfectly and the meal turned out better than I could have hoped for. It was upon serving the meal that my only real complaint developed when I noticed a chip out of the red enamel on the handle ... luckily I spotted it on our tile floor and had zero fear anyone would be eating it. I will definitely continue using it ... but will very carefully watch for any additional chipping. I will also check into whether there is any type of "repair/treatment" I can do to keep the chip from getting worse.

Best of iron and easy clean ceramic
2/9/2016
It cooked even on the stove or oven. Casseroles were moist with the lid on and looked beautiful to serve in also. On the stove browned meat but did not burn. The only problem was the weight. It is so heavy. Even the lid is heavy. My husband brought it in from the porch asked what was so heavy and he strong. I also had guests look at it and they said the same thing too heavy especially the lid. They loved the look and ceramic inside which makes it much easier to clean than just iron. Great otherwise from cooking to table without non stick chemicals.

This 4 quart cast iron casserole dish is extremely well made. The roast I prepared was very moist, and I believe that the moisture pockets built into the lid really worked, when I lifted up the lid the moisture was tripping back onto the roast. I would definitely recommend to my friends and family.

I have used this a few times to make casseroles. I used it on the stove top and in the oven, and love the way the food was cooked.

Great upgrade to a "Old Time Classic"
2/9/2016
I have always loved cast iron pans but was never consistant with seasoning them. This casserole has a very attractive easy clean exterior with a "preseasoned" interior. I don't need a lot of butter or oil to fry anything in it. When you clean it the pan, it looks clean! The old fashioned cast iron never had a "clean" look or feel to them like this does. It cooks evenly and the drip dots (at least that's what I call them) on the interior lid was a brilliant idea. It works with the heavyness of the lid to keep the moisture in the pan. It is such a versitile pan. I can use it in the oven as well as the stovetop. Very happy with this upgrade on the cast iron pans of old!

Excellent product, Well constructed, the basting dots inside the lid work wonderfully keeping the meat moist. Cleaning the casserole dish was easy and it maintained its beautiful color. Love this product.
