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.

I haven't stopped using this Dutch oven since I purchased it. Why pay for an expensive brand hundreds of dollars when this little beauty looks and functions just as well. I have baked bread in it at 450 degrees daily along with cooking soups on a gas burner. It still looks brand new. I got the purple colored one and have received loads of compliments from friends and relatives during the Christmas season. I highly recommend this project.

Bought this for my aunt who didn't have anything like this. She made a pot roast and raved about it. I have two like this and love them both. Heavy pot to withstand long slow cooking imparts awesome flavors. Beautiful and extremely easy to clean up. I this one cleans easier than the LeCreuset I paid $240 for. Great value. Thank you.

I absolutely love my dutch ovens. I bought a 7 qt and a 5 quart one. It holds heat so..... don't treat it like your regular cookware or you'll be sorry. I made chili on Warm in my pot. It was boiling after a couple of hours. If I can get Sam's to do a 2 pack in like a 2 or 3 quart, I'll be set.

I’ve started baking sourdough bread. This Dutch oven is the perfect size pot. I am pleased with the diversity of this pot. I can bake my bread perfectly - make a stew - soup - pot roast - or chicken in this Dutch Oven to name a few. Everything I have cooked using this pot has turned out just as I wanted. I feel this is a pot to have in every kitchen!

I was a little apprehensive to buy this since it seemed "too good to be true" in regards to the price but other reviews both here and on another website were good so I went with it. Glad I did! This dutch oven is of great quality. Nice and heavy, sturdy and clearly well made. The lifetime warranty is a huge plus too. We've used it a few times since Christmas (it was a gift for my husband) and it heats evenly and cleans up super easily! We're looking forward to doing more with it. I will say that the titanium or gunmetal color is definitely not matte or dull like the picture looks. It's almost a mirror finish. Looks cool but not what I expected. Overall very pleased with this purchase.

When this item came up on Sam's Club.com I knew it was just what I had been looking for. A larger pot to boil potatoes for special occasions, for Chili when we all get together for football and family fun nights. A pot to resurrect My Grandmothers Ham hock and bean soup. This pot is just perfect, built extremely well; a more expensive name brand could not work better.

Can't say enough about tbese pans. I have different sizes, colors and a few sets. These are amazing to cook in whether it be stove top or oven. I watch for these black friday every year. Hope Sam's club continues with it. They have many colors to choose from. Definitely 5 star from me.

I bought this online and it arrived in 2 or 3 days. So I washed it and made chicken potpie (rolled out dough) The cast iron is all that I can think of as to why this batch of chicken potpie was so much better. I doubled the recipe and it was a good think that I did. This heats evenly, the lid fits tightly and yet allows a small venting. Clean up was so easy. And I really do mean easy. The Dutch Oven is HEAVY. But they all are very heavy. And my age and a really damaged wrist, hand didn't make things any easier. But I had my husband hold one side and I held the other to dump into the serving bowl, though it could have easily been served right out of the oven itself. As a matter of fact I am making chicken pot pie again tomorrow and after that Julia Child's Boeuf Bourguignon. I have made it many, many times but not in a cast iron dutch oven. It's a time consuming dish to make but I'm very anxious to see how this new dutch oven works. I think it's wonderful. And the price is really excellent. Give it a try and Bon Appetit!

I bought this dutch oven because it was enamelled. I have two others and I will use this in place of the non-enamelled one that I have which I still use. I will use this for bread, soups, stews, slow baking, etc. I find that I use dutch ovens more often in place of my oven and slow cooker. I recently made a beef stew using a Southern Living recipe which closely matched what I had at the family table when I was much younger and was happy with the results. I just washed it and seasoned the rims on the oven and lid and touch it up after using it.
