A must have

Love this size and color. The best part is that you will not stain the interior of this lid and pot. Great size for stewing vegetables and making cream soups. Excellent heat retention and moisture control due to the innovative dimples under the lid. Durable on the inside and out! I use my immersion blender to cream soup without compromising the black matte interior.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful Functional Oven

This French Oven is a great choice for baking bread as well as cooking and stewing meats, chicken, stews and chilis. And even though it is white, the clean up is effortless, even with spills on the exterior. Self basting lid combined with the dark interior are two unique features Staub offers that other cast iron products don't have. Great results for any cooking task.

Essential!

Can't live without this pan! Perfect size for my family. Great for cooking and baking. The Essential pan is not quite as heavy as the more traditional Staub Cocotte because the lid is a different design and has less weight. Made in France, Staub is so durable that it used in many 5 star restaurant throughout the world. Gas, glass and induction capable, also oven safe up to 500 degrees. This pan will definitely be passed down to my daughter's, daughter!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful and functional

I was lucky to score one in a sale. It supposedly had minor imperfections. I didn’t see any but promptly put a chip on it when it slipped from my hands in the sink. Oh, well. It is still drop dead gorgeous, the perfect size for me and I love cooking with it.
White is only available in the USA I got it shipped to the UK even though I can see France from the beach!! Terrible quality white overspray on the black coating inside I thought it was dust. It wasn’t. The white enamel under the handles is patchy and the black metal of the pan shows through and looks cheap. I don’t like leaving bad reviews but for the cost it’s unacceptable. Waiting to here from customer services in USA and Europe. We live in a global market place why do colours have to be unavailable in Europe when they are made there. Just senseless!!! This has put me off making further purchases.
