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.

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 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.

It might be too soon to write a review (since I haven't used it yet) but I took a chance and ordered this dutch oven after lusting for them for many years. I could never bring myself to spend as much as the high end ones cost. Free shipping tipped the scale and I took the plunge. This pot is HEAVY. It's as heavy as the more expensive ones. The lid and handle are well made. The handle is screwed on. Although my kitchen has French red accents I chose the metallic one. It looks like a dark gray/pewter color. I love it. Can't wait to try it out soon.

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 purchased this upon recommendation from a friend who loved hers. I have already used it to make some soups and the size is perfect to cook for our family of 5. I purchased the light blue because my first choice (golden-yellow) was out of stock, but the blue is very pretty and bright. I was, however, disappointed to find that the cover was slightly chipped at the edge exposing grey underneath. For the price its good just sad about the chip.

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 had this dutch oven for a few years. It's my absolute favorite piece of cookware. I use it for everything. I bake bread in it. I make jelly in it and of course soups, stews and braises. I have bought one for my mother,sister and both daughters. They love it too. Now empty nested I would love for Sam's to offer a 4 quart version.

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 bought this Dutch oven because I have been stalking it for a while and when I saw it was going to be on sale, I knew I had to have it. The price is great even without it being on sale most places sale it for almost double the price without the metal knob. The Dutch oven is very heavy and the color is beautiful, I bought the titanium one. It seemed to heat evenly and what I've cooked in it so far came out beautifully. My only regret is I didn't buy it sooner.
