I purchased this product knowing it was going to be heavy due to it being cast iron but I love it! I have cooked pinto beans they came out beautifully. I also baked a pot roast with vegetables baked so evenly and delicious. I did a lot of research on a Dutch oven because I wanted to make sure I bought the best one, when I saw it on Sam’s online and read the reviews I was sold and I am glad I made the purchase and so happy I am now an owner of a Dutch oven the color red is so pretty and looks so nice.

The look of this Dutch oven mirrors Le Creuset and that’s it! My guess is , the mass production of this product relays the differences in obvious qualities. I chose the matte black with golden handle. First use and it is already scratched on the outside and on the inside with small fractures in the enamel from cooking white chicken chili. I do not recommend this product if u are looking for a long term product . I will invest in one from Le Crueuset as I have done several times in the past without regret!

I bought two of these about a month ago...one for me and one for a wedding gift. It is extremely heavy empty and it would be unmanageable for me if it was full. I gave it away to someone who really likes it for stews, soup, chili and spaghetti sauce. It is well made and attractive. I wish it was a little lighter, so I could have kept it for myself.

I love the size color and weight the way it sits flat on the stove. I’m not happy with the coating. Stuff sticks to the bottom. I’m gonna keep using it to see if there’s something I can do to make it better. Half a dozen uses so far, stuff just sticks.

I have put off buying a cast iron Dutch oven for years, seeing the familiar Tramontina label and knowing the quality it was no risk, it is soo great for lo ,slow cooking,creating soups and stews. Going from top of the stove to inside stove cooking. At first it seems a bit heavy, now after a few weeks I don’t even notice .6qts is just enough for a gathering of 6-10 or a week of soup for lunches and sharing at work.

I had this product and was very pleased with it and had to buy a new one after burning the bottom beyond repair...can't blame it on the pot, only on human error. I never had any chips or rust like others have stated and was very careful to handle/clean via instructions (always waiting to clean after completely cooled). Only thing I wish is, the pot to be made in US rather than China. Always skeptical of their business practices and like to support our industries domestically. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

After looking at quite a few dutch ovens this size, I was dumbfounded by the prices! When my local Sam's Club started to carry this I had to go check it out. I was pleasantly surprised that it had all the features of the crazy expensive ones- basting ridges on the lid, a great look, and heavy feel. I was expecting an expensive price point to go with it. I still can't believe it was under $50!!!

Amazing as I thought it would be. I ordered it just before Christmas and received it in a week. I've already used it four times and it cook's so Evenly it's Fantastic. I've Brazed in it and made Soup and Chili. The clean up is so easy. It's Heavy and Stable on the stove. Love it!

I bought this dutch oven as a housewarming gift for my daughter, and she loved it! It was surprisingly affordable compared to other brands. The latte color is beautiful, with a very subtle ombre. The shape of the pan is unique and very attractive. But the finishing touch, and my daughter's favorite thing, is the brushed gold knob. She actually hugged the pot. She has make bread in it twice already, and says it works great.

I ordered one with a gold handle, and they repeatedly sent me one (in the correct color) with a silver handle. I finally just gave up and kept it because I needed it. That being said, I really love this Dutch oven. It's super heavy and sturdy, seems to be good quality. I only bake bread in mine so I can't comment on the enamel scratching or anything like that.
