Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2017
When I found out that the hibiscus color was coming to the US, I freaked out.
I have many Le Creuset Dutch ovens in assorted sizes and colors. The 4.5 quart is probably my favorite. Still easy to hand wash yet still large enough for 6-8 servings of meal soup. I see many reviews where folks have chipping and wear. My advice would be to only use silicone or wood utensils. I deglaze with water to clean although this is not generally recommended but I don't like a patina to form on mine. I have had no issues and no visible wear on a 4.5 quart I've been using constantly for six years. These are made to last.
