What can you really say about a utensil crock? The batteries die too soon? The picture is clear? The author took me to a magical world of make believe?

Well, it does hold many utensils, much better than my last one.

Why would I recommend this crock over others? Weight.

This is one heavy momma. The benefit is that unlike the thin stainless holders, this thing stays in its place.

Look, we all cram as many utensils into this thing as we can. With a thin, light holder the entire crock moves around or comes with you. You actually need 2 hands...one to hold the crock and another to take out what you need.

With the weight of this crock, only one hand is needed. It stays in place.

I very much recommend this crock or any color that matches the rest of your decor. MUCH better than the stainless crock we used to use.

Well, I love all of the red Le Creuset items and now have several of them adorning my red/black/stainless/ivory kitchen. This crock replaced a smaller mouthed black one we had, and I just love it because it's beautiful, of course, but also it holds so much. I no longer have to squeeze things in... All of my kitchen utensils fit and there's room for more!

It's hard to find a utensil holder that looks good and holds all your utensils, and there's nothing I hate more than trying to stuff that wisk back in there. So when I found this I was in utensil holding heaven! It's wide enough to hole quite a few spoons and spatulas etc, but doesn't look too big or bulky. It's nice and heavy, and not too tall, so you don't have to worry about knocking it over when you pull something out. The colors are fun yet still understated. Overall it's all you could want for your utensils!

I love this crock!! I got it in red, I love the crock in this color!! The red is not just one color red, it is a darker red hue on the bottom and lightens up as you go up the crock. The color is deep, rich and poppy. My other kitchen decor is black, white and stainless so this crock stands out beautifully!! It is heavy, it looks and feels of the highest of quality, the size is perfect and large enough to hold all my utensils. This purchase was my first Le Creuset purchase-I am now happily hooked and will be shopping for more. Highest recommendations :)

LC was not kidding when they called this crock large! It measures 6 1/4" tall and 7" diameter. Mine is currently holding 14 utensils, including large whisks. A very solid piece that wont tip over. Not to mention the beautiful Cherry Red color. I plan on using this crock as a wine chiller when the need arises. And I'm sure there is much more this useful piece can be used for. Definitely worth the current price here on amazon to clear out half of my utensil drawer.

I purchased this item in blue for my mother and was surprised at how large and durable it was, so I got myself one in red. I love Le Creuset items, but let's be honest in saying there is no justifiable reason a spoon rest should cost $20+ or a utensil holder to be in the $40-50 range. Their items are too expensive, but they are nice. If you can afford them, I highly recommend you look at their products.

This just arrived today and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! I'm sure you could also bake something in here but it will take me a lifetime to figure out what :) This is a beautiful, LARGE Le Creuset piece, in their current red with it's lovely bright red on top fading to a very dark red ; it changes colors about half-way down. My kitchen was all in blue but I just fell in love with this red color and got matching towels - no regrets :) I put 20 utensils in here and they all fit comfortably with just a minute's tweaking. This crock is for your large utensils, not the small ones (i.e., garlic press, basting brush, can opener); you won't be able to see those small ones from the top which I would think would be annoying. Also, IF YOU ARE NOT A COOK, YOU WILL NOT LIKE THIS CROCK. For example, if you just have the standard stuff for occasional baking or making pasta (I can relate; that was me for a very long time). It will be way too big and all of your stuff will slide down and be side-ways and not look as cute. You know, if you have one or two spatulas, a few spoons, maybe a slotted spoon and maybe a whisk. Then don't get this jar. But if you really love to cook and have a GAZILLION large/regular sized utensils, YOU WILL LOVE THIS.

It's pretty much just as I expected and I like it overall. The only problem is that is Utensil Crock is pretty big, you need a lot of stuff to fill it or the utensils "slouch" inside.

Nice size, attractive color and everything I need, fits in here well. Would definitely recommend this to a friend.

This crock is heavy, holds a number of cooking utensils and adds color to my kitchen.
