Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 5-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Red
Customer Review: 5 Stars for the first 5 years of heavy use only
Summary: 1 Stars
When I was ready to lay down the $500.00 I had saved to purchase cookware that would last a life time; I researched heavily and decided on Le Creuset. $500.00 is a lot of money and I was more than willing to sacrifice it after I saw that this stuff had a life time warranty. Well 5 years later I am able to use only 4 pieces out of the 6 piece set that I purchased. I'm guessing from heavy use, as I thought it so wonderful, easy to clean etc..., the porcelain lining has begun to chip severly. I mean at least 70% of the surface is flaking off on the bottom of the pots. The flaking occurred suddenly when I was cooking and the pieces got in the food.
I attempted to resolve this under the life time warranty but got the complete run around. If I could get the enamel off I'm sure I'd have some great cast iron pots.
Description of Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 5-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Red
Le Creuset L25012667 Enameled Cast Iron Round French Oven 5 1/2 qt. CherryThis 5-1/2-quart French oven by Le Creuset is the most forgiving pan I've ever used. If you just happen to forget you're sautéing onions for a soup while you answer the telephone, there's no need to worry--the onions won't burn. Enameled cast iron has been recognized as one of the best materials available for cookware because it retains heat and promotes gentle, even cooking at low heat ensuring that the best flavor is brought out from the ingredients. It's perfect for use on any heat source--gas, electric, radiant, ceramic, halogen, induction, or solid fuel. There's also a tight-fitting, enameled cast-iron lid that helps seal in heat and flavor. Food will be kept hot as you bring it to the table for serving. And you will certainly want to serve out of this beautiful piece--the deep color and shiny finish will brighten any table setting. --Jane DePaolo
