We love this pot. We use it to braise meats, stews, cook soups, even bake! It cooks even and heat well. Easy to use. I coat it with oil after every wash.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Staub Cast Iron 24cm Dutch Oven Review
on February 4, 2026
Posted by: Kaylee62
I bought this mainly to make rice, and honestly… I wish I had bought it sooner. It has quickly become one of my favorite pots in the kitchen.
The heat retention is amazing. Once it heats up, it stays hot and cooks the rice very evenly. When I make Korean-style pot rice, the grains turn out fluffy and moist, and the bottom gets that perfect crispy layer. It seriously makes the rice taste better than a regular rice cooker.
My husband loves rice, and every time I use this pot he says the rice tastes so good 😊 It’s now the pot I reach for most often.
The lid is another thing I love. It keeps moisture inside so the food stays tender and flavorful, which makes it great not only for rice but also for stews and braised dishes.
It’s also beautiful enough to bring straight to the table for serving.
The only downside is the weight—it’s definitely heavy. But once you get used to it, the quality and cooking results make it totally worth it.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Amazing! I waited far too long and went through other less expensive brands when I see the value and benefit of a brand that has stood behind their product. No lie the meals I have made for years are better in this. The self basting lid design truly results in more tender and moist meat ...I have actually had to slightly adjust techniques that I was compensating for in my previous cookware. It also is important that I am cooking in non toxic ceramic cookware for my family. Cleanup has been easier as I have learned quickly to adjust my cooking technique to avoid sticking. But even when I had sticking, baking soda did the trick! While I got this on sale which makes it an absolute no brainer good value, it is worth the investment at full price. For reference, I have gone through 3 less expensive brand Dutch ovens in the past 7 years and it feels great knowing this piece will be handed down. I can't wait to get my next Staub piece!

I love Staub cast iron! The quality, the sturdiness, and the fact I don't have to baby it when I cook hard in it is a joy. Gets the job done and looks great while doing it!

I have been eyeing these for years agonizing over the size to get since I am only a family of 3 with a Glass cook top. So glad I got this size... Perfect for the soups and Curries I am looking to make.
I would recommend this to a friend!
