I use this at least once every week. It's held up very well. There are some slight staining on the bottom but overall nothing sticks to it and it maintains heat very well. The lid is still working well and the screw is still tight in place. That was an issue with a previous Dutch oven of mine where the lid handle became loose because of the screw being stripped.

It weighs 12 pounds so not for anyone who can’t lift 12 lbs easily. Of course it is great for making gumbo and many other dishes. It is enameled cast iron. Love the sage color. Down side is that it can’t be registered with Cuisinart-apparently b/c it is a discontinued product. I tried filling out the form on photoregister.com/help as well as the Cuisinart customer support e-mail form. Neither would accept the model number. It is 7 digits.So, I called Cuisinart customer support and he had no clue what he was doing other than saying the model number is 9 digits. So, not at all helpful. I don’t know if this is a “knock off†or a real Cuisinart product. The model # on it is: CI650-25. It is Sage.Update: Still can’t register it but I really don’t think it matters. I have used this a cpl times and I love it. Food cooks well in it and although it is heavy, I have no problem handling it.

So far I've been happy with this pot. I've made several dishes in it. I did inspect it carefully for damage when I received it, but all the enamel was intact with no cracks or chips. I've handled it very carefully since then to help it stay nice and avoid chipping. It is pretty heavy, but it's a cast iron pot - of course it's heavy. The handles are pretty easy to (carefully) handle with oven mitts. It cleans out extremely easily even when there has been a lot of browning. I always think it looks a mess and will be horrible to clean, but a soapy sponge always gets everything out with little effort. I had looked at Le Creuset when I wanted to buy a Dutch oven, but they are EXTREMELY expensive, and it's hard to imagine Le Creuset doing a better job than this pot.

We bought this pot during just prior to Christmas on an incredible sale. We've wanted a la Creuset for a while based on using other family member's pots, but couldn't justify $300+ for a single pot. So going into this purchase, our biggest concern was that at this price (less than a third of a La Creuset) it was going to be cheap, and for cast iron that means light. Lifting the box from the porch quickly quelled those concerns. It is a very heavy pot. The lid is heavy as well.We've used the pot several times and are quite pleased with it. Being solid cast iron, it holds heat well. So it is really good for long simmering recipes like chili. The enamel coating makes clean up easy. You should only used wood or silicon spoons, ladles, etc, with the pot to prevent scratching or chipping the enamel. Also, if you have a ceramic top stove, the instructions advise you to stay at or below a medium high heat. It sounds low, but once the pot warms up it holds that level and you can brown and sear easily at that temperature.The color is quite beautiful as well. Overall, we are very happy with the purchase, and would recommend. In fact, we bought two more as Christmas gifts, which were well received (including by someone who own a La Creuset).

I have some LeCreuset pot that are over 30 years old and continue to serve me well, but I wanted a larger pot. The larger LeCreuset pots were out of my budget, so I got the 7qt Cuisinart when it was on sale a year and a half ago. I've been using it to make batches of bean stew a couple of times a month. It is a large, solid heavy pot. It is showing some minor signs of wear - more than my LeCreuset pots did at a similar age, but seems to be holding up well. I've seen no flaking of the enamel so far, as some other reviewers have reported. One thing that is important to remember is that this type of pot should never be heated when empty - doing so can cause the enamel to flake. They work best for soups, stews, casseroles, and the like. I have my doubts as to whether this pot will still be going after 30 years, as my LeCreuset Pots all are, but if you want a big solid pot now and don't have the budget for a LeCreuset, this seems like a good alternative.

This Dutch oven (that’s what I call it) has performed beautifully since I bought it in 2019. I am writing a review now after revisiting the product description and noting the weight given as 16 ounces/1 pound. I am looking for a lighter weight replacement because of back issues I’ve developed over the past year. The actual weight is 17 pounds 3 ounces. Not an issue for most users I am sure, but something to be aware of when buying this. That is the only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5.

I’m very please with my purchases. I bought two 3 quart Dutch ovens and one 7 quart. While the price of the 3 and the 7 are reasonable, the price of the 5 is nearly the same as that of the 7 so I didn’t buy a 5. I bought two 3s and one 7. I have a very small kitchen with very little storage space so all three stay on top of the stove. I can store one 3 inside of the 7 if I invert the 3 lid. The red color looks bright and happy in my brown and cream colored kitchen. It matches my Kitchen Aide appliances and Fiesta scarlet dishes. I make a lot of soup in the winter and I use the 7 most often and then put leftovers in a 3 to put in the refrigerator. Because of the weight I am a bit afraid to put a filled 7 in my new refrigerator. These do very well w my recipes. They warm up fairly slowly but keep the heat longer than a stainless steel pot. I have to be careful the bottoms don’t burn especially with milk sauces or puddings bc the bottom warms up long before the sides. I like being able to transfer the Dutch ovens from stove top to oven when cooking. I haven’t yet mastered cleaning them and have determined they are supposed to stay slightly stained and that’s ok. I use the 7s lid on my fry pan. I wish there were a fry pan to go with the set. I used to use a lot of cast iron but I didn’t like cleaning them and sometimes a black residue would get in my food. I like the enameled cast iron a lot better.
