I bought two of these about a month ago...one for me and one for a wedding gift. It is extremely heavy empty and it would be unmanageable for me if it was full. I gave it away to someone who really likes it for stews, soup, chili and spaghetti sauce. It is well made and attractive. I wish it was a little lighter, so I could have kept it for myself.

The Dutchess of Dutch ovens! Great price for a great quality item. Super heavy and sturdy. Just what I want in a Dutch oven. I Feel that the price was a steal for this 7 qt oven. It’s large enough for soups and stews and is oven safe for bread making ( lid too! Up to 450•). It washes up nicely also. If I had the room I’d have 2 more of these!

I bought 2 of the black cast iron Dutch ovens. After following directions for prep, the gold handle is discolored and the matte black looks shiny in some areas and matte in other areas. The exterior already looks used and it’s brand new. The interior looks fine. Disappointed!

Amazing as I thought it would be. I ordered it just before Christmas and received it in a week. I've already used it four times and it cook's so Evenly it's Fantastic. I've Brazed in it and made Soup and Chili. The clean up is so easy. It's Heavy and Stable on the stove. Love it!

I have lots of Le Creuset but wanted this white matte with gold knob look. It’s beautiful and has been just as good as my expensive French cookware. I’ve bought two more and have made chili and bread from scratch, all of which has turned out fabulously. These are heavy, so be careful. I’d buy this again in a heartbeat!

The look of this Dutch oven mirrors Le Creuset and that’s it! My guess is , the mass production of this product relays the differences in obvious qualities. I chose the matte black with golden handle. First use and it is already scratched on the outside and on the inside with small fractures in the enamel from cooking white chicken chili. I do not recommend this product if u are looking for a long term product . I will invest in one from Le Crueuset as I have done several times in the past without regret!

I ordered one with a gold handle, and they repeatedly sent me one (in the correct color) with a silver handle. I finally just gave up and kept it because I needed it. That being said, I really love this Dutch oven. It's super heavy and sturdy, seems to be good quality. I only bake bread in mine so I can't comment on the enamel scratching or anything like that.

I love the size color and weight the way it sits flat on the stove. I’m not happy with the coating. Stuff sticks to the bottom. I’m gonna keep using it to see if there’s something I can do to make it better. Half a dozen uses so far, stuff just sticks.

I love this Dutch oven. I've been wanting the one that costs an arm and a leg and when I saw this for sale I did some research and learned this one is basically equal to that one except the cast iron in this one is thicker. It weighs a ton so be careful when washing but it is beautiful and serves many uses in the kitchen. the only thing is the gold nob basically discolors or loses its sheen after being in the oven. I got the denim with the gold nob.

The Tramontina Dutch Oven is excellent. It is the second purchase of the same Tramontina Dutch Oven, and I gave this one as a gift to my son. I note that my first Tramontina Dutch Oven has developed a few chips in the outer colored enamel, but overall I'm pleased. It heats up well and maintains moisture well. It's my go-to when doing specialty dishes, stews, soups, rice dishes, and more.
