This is a beautiful piece.it is a deep, rich blueceith a cream colored interior. I have used it about 3 times since receiving it. I sprayed it with a good quality precooking spray before using and after cooking stewand then spaghetti sauce it cleaned up effortlessly. It cooks evenly and works on my induction cook top. I am going to try it in the oven tomorrow to make No Knead Bread . I can't wait to see how it performs!

I was looking for a large Dutch Oven to replace another 6 quart pot that I had so that I could use it in and on the range. I've used it about 5 times so far and I have no complaints. It was inexpensive and it looks and cooks great. I think it's a steal.

Mine was perfect out of the box, no chips no nicks. For the price it's absolutely fantastic. It's a big pot at 7qt, and it does perfectly exactly what I bought it for. Deep frying. It's 1/15th the cost of Le Creuset, and 1/10th the cost of Lodge USA. I'm very happy with it and I'll treat it as nicely as I would the other two. French fries are a pleasure to make in this thing and the sides are so tall there's no mess on my stovetop.

I wanted an oval shaped cast iron roaster. From the photo online, this looked just right. Plus there were many colors from which to choose! That was a big plus! I was very disappointed to see when it arrived that it was round! I went back online to look again, it wasn’t obvious. And I didn’t see it stated just what shape it was. So, I returned it.

I recently received and have used my Tramontina Dutch oven 2 times. Presentation was beautiful and a perfect size for serving Gumbo. Heating was even and great to blend the vegetables with the roux. Adding broth was a smooth procedure. Personally, I like the Tramontina brand Cast Iron. The price is right and the quality has been great, so far. Yes, I bought an extra DO for my daughter in law. Holding it til later holiday. Will I buy more? If I have room to store the item.

This purchase was for a Christmas gift and I have not heard an opinion from the person who received it, but I have this same dutch oven and I really like it. You do need to remember to season it before using. Somehow mine has gotten a chip in the enamel on the handle, but that's not a big deal. It is a good heavy dutch oven that looks pretty.

This is an extremely low cost dutch oven for its size. So the old advice of 'pay less, get less' applies here. However, this size is not something that I would use very often, as there are just 2 of us in my household. I think that it will serve me adequately till I die, age 69. I just used it today to make a shrimp & corn chowder and the roux stuck to the bottom of the pot if I didn't continually stir it. However, it was an easy clean up and the heat was pretty well distributed. I let it soak for a while and used a plastic scrubber. I might add that the instructions say to dispose of the silicone pads that are used in shipping. I'm keeping mine to use in storage so that the lid & the rim will be less likely to chip. At the same time as this, I purchased a 7.5 qt Lodge Dutch oven at Walmart. It was a few pounds heavier (not good for my hands) and oval in shape, double the price. I wanted to have some comparison and I chose this oven due to lighter weight, better shape, & lower price. I returned the Lodge.

I bought this as a gift for my sister. I purchased one two years ago for our mother and ever since she has coveted it. Mama uses it all the time and loves the heavy duty pot that can go from stovetop to oven seamlessly. It is a great addition to any cook's arsenal.

Love this pot ..the teal is beautiful. Used it once already at very high heat and it worked like a dream and cleaned up perfectly. Bought another as a gift, and plan on buying more for my family. I own a LeCruset pot and this is as nice if not better for 1/4 the price.

Didn't buy this for myself, so hard to review. Looks very nice (just a couple small blemishes in the finish that hopefully won't affect its use). Very heavy. I did read comments about oiling the exposed cast iron, so he's done that. Don't think he's used it yet, as it will be a new experience. Need to find a good recipe for him to try with it. I'd get one for myself if I had room to store it without worrying about damaging it.
