love it... love le creuset
I have the two-in-one and the 2.75 oval oven with cover and love both. This is an addition to a collection I already adore. I just cooked Julia Child's bouef bourguinon in it the other night and everything turned out perfectly. The heavy, enameled cast iron did wonders to retain the heat on stove top then in the oven. The beef was tender and the flavor was deep. It is a good size for a small NYC apartment as well.

Love, love, love...
I finally treated myself to this French Oven, and I can't imagine what took me so long. Following the manufacturer's tip that less heat is required, I've made perfect Coq au Vin and thick-cut pork loin chops. This pot is so much better than another similar pot that I'm doubly happy I spent the money for the real thing. I don't know if it's the pot's thickness, the extra layers of enameling, the way the lid fits or just the psychological boost from the sheer beauty of the color I chose, but I can't wait to cook with more items from this line. Thanks Chef's Catalog for the slightly discounted price and free shipping!

LeCreuset
I love my new dutch oven in cherry red. LeCreuset remains the pinnacle of high standards in enamel cookware. I have baked a cassoulet, made soup, and sauce already. Can't use it enough!

Best Gift Ever
This was the most amazing gift I could have recieved. I have seen the cooks on Food Network using it and had to have it. It is much better than I thought. Even heat distribution helps to cook foods evenly. I use it whenever I make anything that calls for a dutch oven.
Clean up is a breeze.
I made the best beef stew and chili in this pot. It is truly an heirloom that I will also be handing down to one of my daughters.

Beautiful,functional addition to any kitchen.
Love my french oven. The color is bold and beautiful. Cleans up easy,and I feel my food cooks more evenly in it. Not too heavy even with a big pot of stew in it. I have wanted this for years and my kids bought it for me for my birthday last month. I see it used on tv frequently and I feel so honored to have this.

Great Pot, Odd Color
Cooking with Le Creuset cookware is remarkable! They're just great, a view I have developed from using the pans of my friends.
I have waited a long time to buy my own because I hoped the
company would produce a wonderful spring green. When I received the paper catalog I thought they had done it. Wrong! The color on the catalog and that on the pan are not the same. So, although I ordered two pieces, I returned them because the green was just not as pictured. So, after waiting years, I gave up and ordered the cobalt blue!
