This pot is extremely heavy, hand washing is a challenge! Color is gorgeous (red). The packaging was amazing, this item would never have been scratched or damaged in any way. Shipping was fast. (2 days) I've cooked in it almost everyday since it arrived, does a fine job! One of the best purchases I've ever made!

Great Product at a Great Price. All professional chefs use ceramic lined pots for most of their cooking, because they are the best for uniform heat, never fail performance. I know why! this lidded pot is perfect. Big enough for a whole chicken, large pot roast, making stock, soups +++. All steps can be accomplished in one pot, so I lose none of the flavours. This is a great addition to my kitchen. THANK YOU SAM'S CLUB FOR BRINGING THIS ITEM TO ALL OF US AT SUCH A REMARKABLY LOW PRICE.

I recieved this beautiful pot today, great size, large enough for a family of 6+, quality is outstanding, and the price is unbeatable! Don't hesitate to make this purchase, we'll packaged and arrived in perfect shape! Dutch oven is very heavy because it is cast iron under the enamel coat, all-around happy with this purchase!

I have been looking for a nice dutch oven for awhile but did not want to spend alot of money, I saw this at Sams and was floored by the price. I bought the teal one and have been so happy, it cooks like a dream and is so easy to clean. I looked online and could not believe the deal I got. A wonderful purchase, and beautiful addition to my kitchen.

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 LOVE these pots. I have two of them and recently gave one to a young bride. The even heating is awesome and you can leave things in this pot and it will stay warm - great for pot luck dinners. Makes the best chili ever and is the perfect size for a crowd.

I have had this dutch oven for a week and have used it twice. I enjoy making one pot wonders as I prep dinner and day after work lunch for my boyfriend during the week. The dutch oven makes things so simple and it is also so cute! The cleaning is so simple and nothing sticks to it. Get it, you won't regret it!

The Dutch oven is awesome quality. It's pretty heavy though, so keep that in mind if you have any trouble picking up heavy items. I have arthritis and carpel tunnel/wrist issues, and I won't be able to get it in and out of the oven without assistance. And that's with nothing in it. It's still a very nice piece so I'm keeping it. Just get some help when I need it. Colors are super nice as well. Will most likely last a lifetime!

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.

I have had my Tramontina Dutch Oven for two years, and have cooked everything imaginable in it, but most of all I use it for baking bread. I use the NY Times Recipe for no-knead bread (as modified by Cook's Magazine) and it makes a fabulous, professional-looking and delicious loaf. One of my favorite kitchen tools; useful for so many things!
