Was excited to receive this, I will say it was packed very well but that's it... Unpacked to discover a huge chip on the top side near the handle, I searched the box and found no chip which indicates it was shipped this way, Impossible not to notice a HUGE chip on the side of the product. Not even going to wash it or waste my time shipping it back, Going into the trash

I have not used the Dutch oven yet. I would like the Customer Care Team that has been providing responses to customer's comments to answer my question, which follows. I'd like to know whether this Dutch oven contains any toxic substances, such as heavy metals like lead or cadmium in the enamel or pigments, especially in certain colors. There are reputable non-governmental websites online, including warnings by the federal government, which warn potential buyers that certain low cost Dutch ovens have contained toxic substances. Therefore, I would like to know what independent testing has been done, specifically, by certified independent labs, to test whether this Dutch oven contains any toxic materials. Also, what assurances does Sam's Club give that these ovens are non-toxic? I'm sure all buyers of this product would like to know the answer to these two questions. Thank you.

I haven't used it yet. I still have to season the rim and lid, but I love it. The color is great. Love me some HUNTER GREEN, DARK SAGE GREEN. THIS POT IS GREEAT!! I'M going to make the best fabulous shrimp dish and gumbo, and soups in this pot, oh and chicken and beef stews. YAASSS!!

I purchased this dutch oven about a year and a half ago and it now has 3 significant chips in the porcelain. I've only used wooden or plastic spoons with it and have carefully washed it by hand. I tried to get my receipt from my local Sams Club and they couldn't find it. Tramontina will not honor the lifetime guarantee if you can't produce a receipt. I guess if you got one as a gift, you're also out of luck.

Awesome pot!!

The handle chipped on my dutch oven. I have owned it roughly around a year and have only used it 6 or 7 times since purchase. It sits on top of my stove as decoration when not in use. It has never been used it in the oven. I contacted customer service through Tramontina and they told me it was not a warranty issue. Disappointed. It is a beautiful pot but not if the finish does not stay on.

Love this pot. The price was exceptional!

I bought one a month ago and it cooked so good until I bought

Really love my Pot excellent quality.

Just what i was looking for and at a great price.
