Seems very heavy and durable but already has rust near top seam where lid sits after one use. The inside is coated ceramic that stains very easily. The top rim where the lid sits on the pot is not coated, and rusts built up staining the ceramic around. I did not leave the pot in water. It rusted the first time I used it. Not happy with purchase, even though it was inexpensive.

Sent this to my son, who is a great cook, as he had been wanting one for a long time. I use mine often it is the best way to cook a roast for instance, results are always perfect. It was such a good deal online, on the one day sale, and with free shipping, this was the easiest and most welcome Christmas gift so far this season!

The quality is top notch. The pan and lid are very heavy duty, I have only used it twice so far, but works great, and cleans up easy. I love the color (turquoise blue). This was the best price I have seen on this product. I expect to have many years of use with it.

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!

I ordered this pot because I was in need of a great Dutch oven pot. I've never had one before. When I came across these pots I loved that there were plenty of colors to chose from. I ordered the yellow pot and received it two days later. I loved the color, and the weight. I already cooked in it and I LOVE IT. I want a few more sizes in this pot and every color. It cooks really good ..food doesn't stick. IM IN LOVE WITH IT

I LOVED this Dutch oven! It does exactly what it says and your food is going to taste amazing! I am an awesome chef but this enhanced the flavors of my food by infusing the flavors into each other . I thought because of the great price, this could not be as good as the more expensive brand but I was very wrong. I am now investing in more. I want them all!

I’ve had my Dutch oven for a year now, have the smaller of the set to my mom, and we both LOVE this thing. I have used it for everything and am about to purchase two sets for my daughter in law and niece. And they are very nice to look a as well. Highly recommend. The only possible downside is they are a little heavy but that’s probably what makes them so good.

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 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 everything about this dutch oven, used it over the recent holiday and it performed beatifully and looked so good while doing it. The heat dispersion and retention abilities are excellent. The price is what I would expect to have paid for some aluminum junk (29) not coated cast iron. The clean up is very simple unlike non-coated cast iron products which require special handling. The pot is heavy so two hands are required to ensure you don't drop it on the floor and hurt your foot.
