- More about Le Creuset
-
The first Le Creuset foundry opened in 1925 in Fresnoy-le-Grand, France, and specialized in cast-iron cookware. The cast-iron pieces are still made at the original factory, using the traditional techniques of hand forging and casting in individual sand molds. The brightly pigmented porcelain-enamel glaze that first set Le Creuset cookware apart from other cast-iron cookware now comes in a wide range of traditional and contemporary colors. In 2013, Le Creuset began producing innovative stainless-steel cookware in Portugal with lids that incorporate the same signature three-ring design as the company's classic cast-iron pieces. This stainless-steel collection was awarded the prestigious 2014 Red Dot Award for product design.

Rated 5 out of 5 by AZjo from Lives up to its raving reviews Researches have shown that cooking with cast iron is best for health vs. the non-stick pots/pans. So when I moved, I finally took the plunge to invest in a 5.5 qt Dutch oven this summer. I’ve used it several times since and I must say it lives up to its reputation of being a high quality pot that cooks delicious food. Being cast iron, it’s very heavy so that is the only con for me. It’s perfect for making a bit pot of soup. It’s easy to clean as well. No regrets purchasing it!Date published: 2019-11-12Rated 5 out of 5 by Lgaster from favorite new dutch oven Love the the versatility and the caribbean color. Perfect size for preparing meals in our Airstream.Date published: 2019-08-28Rated 5 out of 5 by Paca from WOW!! Love it!! Love it And not only me!! Me son make Mac and Cheese!!! Is a very nice Dutch Oven!Date published: 2019-07-07Rated 5 out of 5 by SuzyT from Love my new Ocean Le Creuset pots Put off buying Le Creuset for a long time but jumped on the recent sale. You only live once... why was I waiting to have great cookware? Been having fun making old fashioned goulash and warmed up some navy bean soup for lunch. Bought the 5 1/2 qt size and just waiting for it to arrive to make a huge pot of chili!Date published: 2019-02-21Rated 4 out of 5 by sdrose from Beautiful cookware Love this and it is perfect to make small meals. Love the QUINCE color!Date published: 2019-01-12Rated 1 out of 5 by King from Beware defective product... Bought this (3.5 qt, Flame) and was really excited to use it, washed it, and started cooking with the lid off until I had to put it in the oven to braise. Found out the lid doesn't actually fit and it teeter-totters side to side. Not secure at all, so you can't braise like this. Pretty upset considering how I heard these were supposed to be the best of the best quality and they let stuff like this get by. Will not order online again.Date published: 2018-11-18Rated 5 out of 5 by Stay72 from Mint 3.5 and 5.5 Mint is such a beautiful and neutral color to add into my collection. The quality is exceptional! I habe braised, browned and sauted... very even cooking and clean up is a breeze. To beautiful to put away! Fantastic investment!Date published: 2018-05-13Rated 5 out of 5 by Ransom423 from Fantastic! Just purchased the collection in the new Teal. It's beautiful. Love the multi-purpose use of the pot. I can do anything from sauces, stews, soups, pot roast, risotto, and briskets. The list can go on. Love the durability and quality of the product. Easy to care for and clean. Bar Keeper's Best Friend works like wonders on stubborn stains.Date published: 2018-04-23

Is matte marseille the same color as marseille
Hi Tdf56, Yes, they are the same color. The matte version is without the glossy finish.Date published: 2019-11-23Does the #28 on the bottom mean 5.5 quart?
Hi Gp94, #28 means it's a 7.25 quart round oven.Date published: 2019-11-03Is french Grey color a WS exclusive color?
Hi Dawle001, Yes, French Grey is an exclusive color for Williams Sonoma.Date published: 2019-05-19The LC 7.25 qt cast iron dutch oven claims to be 11" diameter and 5" tall. The LC deep saute pan claims to be 12" diameter, 5.25" tall, but only 4.25 qt capacity. How can the deep saute pan be wider and taller, but have less capacity?
Hi Mike, The height for the deep sauté pan includes the domed lid. The Dutch oven has a traditional flat lid. The sauté pan dimensions are: 12" diam., 3 1/2" high; 5 1/2" high with lid.Date published: 2019-03-20I am not sure which size to purchase of Le Cresent Dutch Ovens. Or if the round is better than the oval.
Hi Bake, Shape and size really depends on what types of food you typically cook and how much of it you cook at a time. An oval dutch oven can better accommodate a whole chicken or a large piece of meat such as a leg of lamb or pork tenderloin. As for size, a 5.5-qt. round oven serves 5-6. Here's a size guide for reference: https://www.williams-sonoma.com/netstorage/pdf/le-creuset-oven-size-chart.pdfDate published: 2019-11-15Is red Le creuset different from cerise or cherry color? or is red an exclusive color for ws?
Hi Anonymous, Our Le Creuset Red is the same as Cerise out in the market.Date published: 2019-02-08Is the bottom of the Dutch oven completely flat, ridged or some other texture? I’ve got a glass cooktop and am concerned about scratching or marring the surface.
Hi Jill K - This dutch oven is ideal to use on any cooktop. Although we do recommend that you don't slide it across the cooktop. Enjoy!Date published: 2019-02-13I got the rose dutch oven and noticed that the black coloring is coming through the pink color..on the handles and the bottom a bunch. Is that common? Also on the lid the name isn’t raised or 3D as it seems in the pictures.
