We just received ours less than a week ago. Used it twice, electric cook top never above medium high heat, no metal tools, Dobie pad and Dawn for cleaning. There are multiple chips on the bottom surface. Very disappointing. Feels like I just tossed out $53.

It cooks food well and I love the color but the 2 stars are for the quality! The handle has a big chip in it and there is a small chip on the inside of the pot and this all happened shortly after I purchased it. I take great care of it and store it correctly. Contacted the company but they won't replace it because they said it is cosmetic. So disappointed.

It's not a Le Creuset, but for everyday use it pretty darn good for a very, very reasonable price. I let my lady friend use it & may never get it back. It's great for soups, roast, well anything you use a Dutch oven for. Key thing is to make sure that lid fits flat & dose not rock.

I purchased the Dutch oven set in January 2018. Within 6 months the enamel was chipping around the rim and rust was coming through. I always washed and dried by hand. I contacted Tramontina and attached pictures. They asked for more pictures then required a receipt ( I no longer had the receipt). They closed out my ticket and basically told me to they weren't going to do anything. I really enjoyed cooking with a dutch oven but I would definitely save up and purchase a more quality brand that stands by their product. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

I love my dutch oven. Execellent Price compared to other equivalent products. I waited a year to purchase one for my son. Cleans up easy compared to other non-enameled pots. Love that I can make recipes that called for more than one pot; now I only use the one pot. Casserole-type dishes that can cook part 1 on stove, then add other ingredients & bake in oven; all in the one pot. My only criticisms are: the inside enamel (after only 1 yr) has slightly cracked & stained. The upper edge of the pot & rim of the lid (where they come together & meet when lid is on pot) are not enameled (probably for heat conduction) so the exposed iron can rust. I wash my pot by hand & never put in dishwasher for this reason. But I love it just the same. It's my Go-To Pot several times a week.

The sheet of instructions clearly state in bold letters, “OVEN SAFE UP TO 500 DEGREES”. However, in the use and care, in tiny letters it states the enamel surface is not recommended for dry cooking. Add liquid, butter or oil to the bottom prior to cooking. This I did not see and I preheated to 500 then turned down to 450, added the dough on parchment paper and baked it. When I took it out the enamel was all cracked. It is totally unusable and they will not replace the product as they say it is my fault. I say their instructions are VERY misleading!!!! I e also tried to attach a pic but it keeps giving me an error, go figure.

I really like this Dutch Oven - Love not only the Color choices but the versatility of the item. I cooked Tuna Noodle Casserole and those of you know it can create a mess of your pan and this cleaned up perfectly like new. Would definitely recommend.

Got inspired to get a Dutch oven after seeing my bro-inlaw using one. Don't know how I got along without it for so long. Used it over 30+ times for stews, soups, gumbo, roasts. Well built, solid, even heat distribution. Reduced my cooking time by 25%. And, uses less heat than other stew pots. If you cook regularly add this to your arsenal. I'll pass this down to my kids if/when I'm done with it. Someone complained it was too heavy. Its CAST IRON. Smh.

I got the cranberry color with the gold pot handle, and it's one of the more gorgeous pots I own... or have owned, because I am returning it. I bought it today, and used it for dinner. The enamel chipped while washing it afterwards using a standard green/yellow sponge and dawn soap. I am very careful with my pots, and have another enamel pot that has lasted 4+ years without a single chip. Clearly the process they are using is inferior to other brands.

Although it is heavy. I would not recommend for the very elderly. However is a good buy for the young Moms who still have those fine motor skills in their hands. Cooks Great. Easy to clean in the sink. Very worth the price. I bought two. Down side the store did not have variety of colors but am sure if you want other colors you can get them online.
