Cast Aluminum Caldero size: 26.8 qt.

26.8 qt Caldero pot
The pot was received badly dented, however the shipping box shows no sign of damage. The pot is damaged beyond use. I tried to contact the seller (through Amazon) but no answer. I could return the pot, but would have to pay return shipping charges. I do not feel that I should be responsible for the shipping charges. I also ordered the 17 quart pot, the covered doesn't fit, as it is warped.
Looks like I am out a little over a $100 dollars and Amazon will be out of a customer if they don't make it right.

Love my pot.
Excellent, I enjoy it. It's perfect. We cook outside with wood and we had like 30 people invited. They love how the food, and the size, perfect. Worth it for that price.

Great Caldero, please get more in stock!
Fast delivery, Caldero was as described, Very good quality product, would buy from seller again..... My mom has had a smaller Imusa caldero for about ten years and it still looks and cooks great. I got this one for my girlfriend and she loves it. I compared the imusa brand to other brands side by side at local spanish stores and the other brands seem to be made of cheaper quality materials. Hope they get more in stock, this is a great Caldero and everyone is asking me where I got one this big from.

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 5-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Black Onyx

One of my favorite pieces
The 5.5 qt. size is just right for a medium chicken or roast. It's one of my most used pieces. Soups and stews stay hot for a log time so there's less worry about having to keep on low heat or reheating.

Kudos to LC for making the black onyx version more available than before, and with the stainless steel knob it makes a more bold statement from the stove to the table. The interior is beige and easily cleans with a sponge, which is recommended to use throughout. Simple and beautiful to serve from.

Solid, great product!
This is the first step in our changing over to this line of cookware. We cook every day and thought we deserved the best - and this is the best. Nice, even cooking heat, attractive, and easy easy to clean up! We look forward to replacing other older pots with more of this line soon!

LE CREUSET
this item is superb. heats up quickly and retains heat for even cooking. great for browning meats, making soups, and specialty dishes like paella and japanese hot pots. i would recommend this product to experienced and beginner cookers. love the black onyx color. this is an excellent piece for any kitchen.

Le Creuset Stoneware 12-Ounce Mini Oval Cocotte, White

More Mini Than Described
Researching mini cocottes, I was annoyed by many reviewers complaining that they are small, and if you've read as many of these complaints as I have, you are probably writing me off right now as someone who doesn't bother to read the provided information about capacity and dimensions. I, however, am complaining because I did read and consider carefully, and I decided on this one because it was listed as a "12-Ounce Mini Oval Cocotte."

I am a huge fan of Le Creuset enameled cast iron, but think Le Creuset stoneware is overpriced and far less useful, so I was at first inclined to buy Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 1/3-Quart Mini Cocotte, Red but I decided that its listed size (1/3 quart) wasn't enough larger than my 8 oz. Staub mini cocotte to make much difference; I was looking for something slightly larger.

I decided on this, despite its being overpriced stoneware, because 12 ounces sounded...

it's tiny but beautiful....lovely for dips and sauces.
what a pretty pretty item to give as a hostess gift. It's tiny but so pretty! I'm proud to give them as gifts--great "stocking stuffers" filled with treats. !!

Cute versatile dish
Shipped quickly and was what I expected. I love the white color, very clean. I usually keep my butter in it, it has a tight fitting lid and I can microwave it if I need to. It was a good deal!

Emile Henry Flame Top 4.2-Quart Round Oven, Red

Exactly what I wanted.
I had put off buying a dutch oven for quite some time, just because they are always SO heavy and SO expensive (the good ones, anyway).

I was at Sur la Table looking at dutch ovens when I lifted the lid off a Emile Henry Flame Top and very nearly threw the lid backwards over my shoulder because I expected it to be about twice as heavy as it actually was. I was dubious; a ceramic dutch oven? It was on sale so I bought it, thinking that I could return it if I didn't like it.

I don't like it. I LOVE it. So far everything has cooked absolutely perfectly in it. The ceramic retains and radiates heat better then metal, excellently searing pot roasts and then simmering evenly on the very lowest gas heat setting. If my Flame Top went missing today I'd buy another one without hesitation. This is 100% heirloom cookware: it's going to be in your family, being used, for a long time.

To address the complaint that the Flame Top retains odors, all I can say is...

Simply the best!
I've used a lot of different types of cookware through the years---cast iron, clad cast iron, aluminum clad, teflon coated, etc (both lower and higher priced). The FLAME TOP series are the only ones that can go in the oven, on the stove top, in the fridge, microwave, etc. Fantastic heat distribution with no hot spots or burning. Extremely easy to keep clean. Due to higher cost, I've accumulated a set over the recent past and have donated all of my other cookware! Buy one and try it, you WILL be amazed!

Use it everyday!
I am completely satisfied with this product. I find that I am using it everyday for all of my cooking needs. I even cook rice in it! Fantastic for browning meat, draining and popping in the oven with other ingredients.

It keeps food warm through the whole meal, so going back for seconds is great.

Cleaning is a breeze. If anything sticks, just soak and it comes right out.

Le Creuset Heritage Enameled Cast-Iron 2-1/2-Quart Oval Cocotte, Cherry

The problem is the lid...
This is the most beautiful item of cookware that I own. The problem is the lid. The handle is too small to be able to grab it easily with a potholder. I can't believe Le Creuset put something out there with this kind of design flaw. I'm not sure how exactly you're supposed to be able to lift the lid on and off without either dropping it in the pot or scalding yourself.

Can't beat Le Creuset!
I have several Le Creuset enameled cast-iron pots and love them all, but this one is the PERFECT size!... Not too big, not too small. Love the oval design too. Lots of other companies have started making enameled cast iron, but from my experience, you get what you pay for. Buy Le Creuset and your grandchildren will be using it years down the road!

Le Creuset Heritage
I just love the shape and color of this casserole, I can saute' in it and it bakes like a dream. I can freeze in it too. This is very good quality. Would be a great present for someone. I have even baked bread in it.
