I would have given it no star at all if I were allowed. As shown in the attached pictures, the lid of the dutch oven leaves a gap when it sits on the actual oven. I'm not sure if this is a defect that happen to appear only on the dutch oven I bought, but what I do know is this gap made more than 2 Qt of water evaporate within 30 minutes on medium high heat and burnt a soup that took me almost 2 hours to prepare. Horrible experience with this purchase did not end there. Since then, I emailed the company regarding this incident, and it's been 10 days now I didn't even get an auto reply. I then called the customer service number. My call went straight into voice mail. Still hoping they would have the decency of doing what they say, I left my phone number. It's been more than 24 hours by now, nobody called me. Based on my more than disappointing experience, I would NOT recommend any one to buy anything from this company. Once they get your money, you are on your own.

Saw this in store a few times and said I'll buy it another day. Last week I finally gave in. Best purchase ever. Tonight I made beef stew. This pot was perfect for searing the beef and slowly cooking the stew. It turned out so good. Pot has even heating. Nice sturdy and a lifetime warranty, can't go wrong for $40.

I just bought my dutch oven and have only cooked one meal in it. But so far, I love my dutch oven. It cooked evenly and quickly. And because the lid is heavy it helped seal in flavor. Not only did I order one for myself but I also got one for my daughter-in-law as a gift.

I wished for this fir Christmas and got the double set with the 7 qt and 4 qt. I didn’t need those sizes so I returned them and got this 6 quart one in Purple. It is beautiful. I read all of the instructions and seasoned the exposed cast iron areas. The pot that I got has two handles which already makes it superior to my original non-enameled Dutch oven. Cooked chicken and dumplings just the other day and they were terrific. This Dutch oven will be a staple in my kitchen and a beautiful pan to take soups and stews to church pot lucks. I highly recommend this pan despite the bad reviews. Most of the bad reviews are from several years ago so I believe they must’ve fixed some of those problems.

I started making artisan-style bread and my cast iron skillet with lid was too shallow. I got this because it’s the best price you can find anywhere and the reviews were promising. I ordered the spruce color and it’s GORGEOUS. I’ve already made 2 loaves and we ate them quickly. The quality is solid and the value is unbeatable.I’ve yet to make anything else with this, but I’m certain it will be good.

I recently added the 7 Qt Cast Iron Dutch Oven in matte sand to my kitchen, and it’s already proving to be a valuable tool. The color is absolutely stunning—matte sand is a perfect neutral that leans towards warm tones, making it a versatile addition to any kitchen décor. Functionality-wise, this Dutch oven has impressed me from the start. I used it to bake sourdough and make a hearty soup, and it performed beautifully in both cases. The heat distribution is excellent, and it handles long cooking times like a champ. However, it's worth noting that this is a heavy piece of cookware. While the weight gives it a solid, substantial feel—ideal for heat retention and even cooking—it can be a bit challenging to move around, especially when it’s full. I've only used it once so far, so I'm curious to see how it holds up over time. I have a 5.5 Qt Enameled Cast Iron Round Dutch Oven in white that unfortunately chipped, but this 7 Qt version is supposed to be more durable. The manufacturer highlights a different finishing process with three layers of porcelain-enamel exterior coating, designed to be chip-resistant and prevent rust. I’m hopeful that this new coating will live up to its promises and outlast the 5.5 quart. Overall, I'm pleased with the purchase, but the true test will be in its long-term durability.

I received as a gift at Christmas in 2020. I love this pot and use it for anything that I can. It heats well and cleans easily. The 7qt is the perfect size and height. I am looking for another one but see they are out of stock and cannot find them in the store either. Please bring it back.

Wonderful cast iron pot. Compares to ones that cost 4 times as much!

Loving it. I have one and bought my daughter one. Price was right and it works for Soup or breads!

This pot is great for cooking, it looks great, it keeps food warm I love it.
