This was the second one I purchased. I have another one but different color. The one I just bought was navy blue and the paint seemed like it burnt. The shiny finish turned a lighter color and had like a sand paper feel. I made one pot of soup in it on stove top. My first pot was a different color and love it.

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.

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!

I bought this dutch oven as a housewarming gift for my daughter, and she loved it! It was surprisingly affordable compared to other brands. The latte color is beautiful, with a very subtle ombre. The shape of the pan is unique and very attractive. But the finishing touch, and my daughter's favorite thing, is the brushed gold knob. She actually hugged the pot. She has make bread in it twice already, and says it works great.

I have put off buying a cast iron Dutch oven for years, seeing the familiar Tramontina label and knowing the quality it was no risk, it is soo great for lo ,slow cooking,creating soups and stews. Going from top of the stove to inside stove cooking. At first it seems a bit heavy, now after a few weeks I don’t even notice .6qts is just enough for a gathering of 6-10 or a week of soup for lunches and sharing at work.

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!

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!

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!

Great Deal, I have wanted one of these for a while. I have been cooking away and I love it. I have the oyster color with the gold knob. Chili in my house has a whole new outlook

Awesome pot, beautiful. My wife insists on keeping it on the range instead of in a cabinet because it’s so beautiful. Heavy weight, well made. Holds heat wonderfully.
