It may be too early to tell whether these Chinese-made pots will last as long as their French-made originals, but the price is great and they look wonderful! I was so happy with this Dutch oven I bought the set and more for the (adult) kids.

Nice, heavy duty Tramontina Dutch Oven. The size is huge! Looks very well made. The blue is beautiful. I haven’t used the oven, so I can’t vouch for how well food will cook in it or how well it will cleanup as it is a gift.

Heavy pot and high quality. It arrived with a chip on the lid but it isn't too bad nor does it impact me cooking. I bought this pot to do roux for gumbo mostly and to have a smaller amount since I live alone.

I got this in pewter. It's heavy and pretty. Haven't used it yet, haven't even seasoned it so have no idea how well it works but it should work well. It is smaller than I thought it might be but that's ok too.

I love this cast iron pot! I made a wonderful Whole Chicken with vegetables for Sunday dinner! Delish! It is a little heavy, but it is cast iron! The inside finish makes for easy cleanup!

I bought this for myself and ordered one for my granddaughter to make gumbos. The price and quality were very influential in my decision to purchase them.

Even heating. Didn't have trouble with scorching. Used either wooden or silicone utensils to protect the finish, which is really pretty. As a matter of fact, it can go straight from stovetop to table.

I purchase the 7 oz cast iron Dutch oven for my oldest daughter for Christmas. Before wrapping if for her I open the box and examined the pot. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality.

Used it on the day it arrived to make a delicious gumbo. Worked great with no problems. I seasoned the edges not covered with enamel as instructed on the instructions. Food cooked evenly beautifully.

High quality Dutch oven. We recently bought a set of ceramic coated pots and pans and they don’t cook to the quality of cast iron. My first meal I made in the Dutch oven was Italian beef for sandwiches. Absolutely delicious.
