I'm not at all sure what you would gain by buying one of these pans at five times the price of this one (and there are some). This one works just the way I want. It browns beautifully with out sticking and you can still deglaze a bit after for soups, stews, etc. It cleans up easily, the lid fits well...not sure just what you would get for more money spent.
It is very heavy...you must use caution on a glass cook top to lift it as you move it...I'm sure a more expensive one would be the same.
I am very happy with it. And I am not a bit shy about writing a bad review when I am not. Love this pan!

Purchased at $40, took a chance at such a cheap price, got what I paid for. Heavy, nice outside finish, perfect size. Inside, is where I am disappointed, plastic handle held on by exposed metal screw, white enamel very thin and chipping and bubbling, not a smooth finish or thick, you can see the cast iron through the white enamel, rim on top of post of exposed cast iron is rusting. Is it worth $40, yes, will it last a two years, I doubt it.

1.0 out of 5 stars CHIPS IN MY TACO SAUCE, March 22, 2009

This is only my second time cooking in this pot; I'm preparing homemade Taco Sauce for the D.A.V. Suddenly, I realize that I hear a "scraping' sound on the bottom; my worst fears are realized; I dumped the sauce into my S/S pot, and there it was: A HUGE AREA WHEN THE ENAMEL CAME OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE DUTCH OVEN AND IT IS NOW INTEGRATED INTO MY TACO SAUCE. NOT GOOD NEWS; WHAT TO DO? NEEDS TO GO BACK; THIS IS NOT WORTH 40.00; NOT FOR ONLY 2 USES; I THOUGHT I'D HAVE THIS FOR YEARS AND YEARS; AFTER ALL, IT'S "ENAMEL OVER CAST IRON", RIGHT I AM SOOOOO DISAPPOINTED IN THE ABSENCE OF QUALITY IN THIS POT; USUALLY I ONLY USE STAINLESS STEEL, BUT I THOUGHT I'D GIVE THIS A TRY; WELL, NO MORE.
