Cocotte ronde en acier inoxydable antiadhésif Demeyere Atlantis

Perfect size, works on induction cooktop. Handles are easy to use. Cleans easily with soap and water.

This arrived well-packed in the manufacturer's box and was new, arrived ahead of schedule. The 5.5 quart size was the size I was looking for things like chili, stews, soups, etc. I needed to buy new because I moved to a home with an induction cooktop. This is an expensive investment but after all the research (Reddit was the best source) I wanted guaranteed reliability and longevity. I measured my old large pot and this one correlated close. I personally think the largest size, the 8.9 would be too big for my daily use. The largest size would be cooking for very large numbers, boiling a lot of corn on the cob, and if you are canning food (back in the day my grandmother and mom did.)

Beautiful, easy to clean, well made. Great for many uses but especially good for my new homemade Chili pot

Absolute perfection. I've owned and used a LOT of different cookware over the years. Like a lot of people, I have gradually upgraded over the years. At this point, I use Le Creuset and Lodge most frequently (and am very happy with both), but stainless steel is better for some things that I cook. I researched the other stainless steel options, and I do already own a couple of All-Clad & Demeyere Industry pieces too. However, I heard great things about the Demeyere Atlantis line, so I ordered this 5.5qt dutch oven (on sale!) to give the Atlantis line a try. I have not been disappointed! The heat distribution in the Demeyere Atlantis is next level. It can't be beat. And, as long as you preheat the pot and then use some oil or butter, there is little to no sticking of anything. Clean up is very easy. The only very small downside is that the bottom is so thick, the Atlantis line is slightly less responsive than my thinner All-Clad and Demeyere Industry. It's not a deal breaker for me, as I am just a little more vigilant in watching the food and adjusting the temp (like I do when I cook with my cast iron). And quite honestly, the evenness of the heat distribution more than makes up for it. I was pretty impressed that, despite cooking on a pretty inexpensive GE electric range, my food was cooking just as well as on a higher end stove top/range. I had been considering upgrading my GE range, but I don't think it's necessary anymore. I look forward to getting more pieces from the Atlantis line in the future. The quality is exceptional and the performance exceeds my expectations - it makes cooking a joy. I have already used this dutch oven a dozen times, and I have been pleased with its performance each time cooking a wide variety of dishes. Don't hesitate to get this dutch oven if you are on the fence! It is pricey, but I rationalized that dining out is ALSO expensive and this purchase will save our family some money in the long run. It is heirloom quality and made from top-quality food safe materials (no PFASs/PTFEs). You will not regret the decision to get this dutch oven.

Sent me the wrong item, a Demeyere dutch oven from a lesser product line. Contacted customer service who said they would get the correct item sent out and return instructions for what I had received. It never arrived and I contacted them again and they said they would refund 25% in 3-5 business days if I just accepted the one I got. This time has now also passed.
