Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Beautiful enough for the table and durable enough to outlive its lifetime warranty against defects, this heavy, round, 13-quart French oven is perfect for preparing and ceremoniously serving dishes like cassoulet and vegetable soup. It's made of cast iron, with both exterior and interior clad in two coats of enamel.
As cast iron is unexcelled for heat distribution and retention and enamel is impervious to acids and odors, the oven (or casserole) browns and cooks food uniformly and gently without hot spots and can be used for marinating. It's safe on any stovetop, including induction, and dishwasher-safe. The plastic knob on its heavy, tight-fitting lid is ovenproof to 450 degrees F. Like all Le Creuset cast-iron products, it's hand cast in a one-of-a-kind sand mold and hand finished at the Le Creuset factory in France. It carries a lifetime warranty against defects and measures 16-1/2 by 13-3/4 by 8 inches. --Fred Brack

Le Creuset 13 1/4 qt French Oven,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 13-1/4-Quart Round French Oven, Dune (Kitchen)
This is a seriously large and heavy pot, but that's what I needed to make cassoulet and other recipes. It stays hot and is attractive. Its design allows it to fit easily on the middle shelf of the oven because it's wide and relatively short. A serious tool for the serious cook.

Good pot...but heavy!!!,
By Shane Sayeed "Shane" (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 13-1/4-Quart Round French Oven, Dune (Kitchen)
Okay, first of all...i love Le Creuset french ovens! I just started using them a few months ago and am now wondering why i waited so long. I too am planning to hand them down to my kids when i get old and unable to carry them around. I got this huge oven down at the outlet mall for next to nothing(literally) because it had slight damage to it. I don't think i would have bought it otherwise. The oven is so heavy it is hard to clean in the sink. It is a beautiful pot...but definitely an occaisonal use pot due to it's size.
