[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the color and function of this Dutch oven. Beautifully red, and it cooks to perfection basically anything at all. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great size for cooking a big family dinner. Used this to make a bolognese sauce for 11 people and it had room to spare. To make a proper bolognese sauce takes at least five hours of simmering anger evaporating away milk and wine. The cast iron was perfect at distributing the heat evenly to maintain an extremely low simmer that steel or copper pots cannot. This is an heirloom product that will last a lifetime with proper care. Staub is my favorite cast iron cookware.

Staub pans heat up quickly, evenly and retain heat for hours. Conversely they hold cold for hours as well. I like to use this pan for pasta salads in the summer. I freeze the pan for a couple of hours, add the salad and go. No cooler needed. Make the meal in the cocotte and then use it as a serving piece. The cherry color is gorgeous, a nice addition to any table.
