I also appreciate the flat lid design, which lets you rest a spoon on top or add ice to make the lid cold and quickly turn steam back into liquid before it can escape.

I love Le Creuset's color options, lightweight design, and large handles.

Since chipped enamel is one of the most common issues with Dutch ovens - knowing you're covered even a decade down the line makes the high price tag easier to justify.

If price is the one thing holding you back, check out Le Creuset's outlet stores. They have over 60 locations across the US where you can find factory seconds, discontinued colors, and overstocked items at significant discounts.

The reason for that is the first one I received had a small pinhole in the enamel and I wasn't sure if it was a big deal or not, but I took some pictures and sent them to Lodge and they said that's a returnable issue and they sent me another one.

The upside there though is that um they are closing these out and you can get some deals on these, but you're going to have to jump on them because they're not going to be around forever.
So you got the L Crusade over 400. You got the stove around 300. You've got the Lodge USA model a little less than 200. And then that Chinese made Lodge a little less than 100. And that makes a lot more sense.

They are going to be discontinued, so there are some deals on them now.

Made In recently opened a branded shop in Austin, Texas, near its headquarters but it's not available in any other retail stores so you can't pick it up and look at it in person before you buy it.

Currently, Stargazer only offers three products: a 10.5-inch skillet, a 12-inch skillet, and a 13.5-inch braiser. Although these are the most common pieces, most cast iron brands have a lot more sizes and options. For example, Lodge offers nine different skillet sizes.
