Perfect pan. Pretty color and well made.

I think this is the most beautiful dutch oven, and I get questions from guests about it all the time! It cooks things perfectly, and I've had great success making sourdough bread in it too. I've found the light color can get smudges baked on when you put it in a high-heat oven, but they came off really easily with a magic eraser sponge. If you're concerned, I think the black version is just as beautiful, but I love how the mint green looks in my kitchen. Highly recommend!

The pan holds up very well in the oven. I recommend this.

Unlike some cast iron pans, this one is a perfect weight that is easy to handle. The design is not only elegant but also very pleasing to the eye. The solid ash handle is a particular delight and really sets this pan apart from others on the market.

I can't use this in the oven. However, it fulfills all of my other requirements perfectly.
