Lodge 7 Quart Enameled Cast Iron Oval Dutch Oven with Lid – Dual Handles – Oven Safe up to 500° F or on Stovetop - Use to Marinate, Cook, Bake, Refrigerate and Serve – Red

This is a very nice Quality Oval Casserole Dish. The Color is classic and will be in style for years. I love that you can start on the stove top and transfer to the oven. It's great to be able to use the lid or leave it off. Great Durable handles that make it easy to transfer in and out of the oven. Great for large Roasts, Soups or Stews!

Wry nice piece, heavy cast with nice finish , good value from a legend in cast cookware

There's no way that I was going to spend the $$$ for a glazed Dutch Oven from Le Creuset or Staub. At a fraction of the price, you get a finely made and versatile cooking vessel from a company with more than 100 years of experience. From a whole chicken, to briskets to soups, our little red oven has done the job. If you've never used one, it takes some time to figure out how it will cook in your oven or stovetop. And it is not light. If your a lightweight cookware household, be prepared to always use two hands. Especially with a few pounds of stew meat! My only complaint is that the proximity to med-high/high heat seems to have altered the red color to become a lot more burgundy. I assume that this is just normal with age. Make sure you have some good silicon grips or handle holders nearby because this thing holds heat for a long time. It's not hard to clean, but TBH, it's not as easy as most of the other things in our kitchen. Just know that you will need a little more patience so not to ruin the ceramic interior or exteriors. Absolutely recommend anyone looking for a Dutch Oven to give this jem a try.

Good quality enameled oval dish . I use this in a professional way.

I purchased this Dutch oven to replace an older one . It works just fine. I love it bc you can cook a complete meal in this .

Large oval enamel Dutch oven FAILED within 24 months. 2 small pit marks broke through the enamel and formed in the bottom of the product after less than 20 uses. Very disappointing. So much for “ my forever pan”.☹️ I’ve reached out to their customer service and will update my review if anything comes of it.

I haven't used it yet, but it is heavy and looks good, Unfortunately, the the enamel on the lid appears to be chipped in 2 places right out the box (see pics). I also purchased the 7.5 quart round dutch oven and am going to check that closely when I open it. If both are chipped then I am going to return them. If only this lid is chipped then I will probably keep them both. Going to use it in 2 days time then I will update the review. UPDATE 11/19/2017: I have used this a few times now, and it works well. Cleans up easily and no additional chips. The enamel coating appears to be holding up well. I will revise the review from 1 to 3 stars and would have rated it higher if it had arrived in perfect condition. UPDATE 11/26/2018: We have used this multiple times in the past year and it holds up well. The enamel has not chipped off since I received the product (other than the chipped off enamel on the lid on receipt). It has not stained on the inside and I have also used it on a glass top range - just be careful not to use it on high as it may crack the glass top. Upgrading the rating to 4 stars.

My wife is the Queen of Yum and my girth is evidence. We love this large Lodge Dutch Oven cast iron for cooking and this pot is a favorite in the kitchen tool shed. The red color on this is totally rocking and screams were in business while she’s braising the meet for a pot roast (cooked yesterday) and when that comes out of hiding in the stove, we know what’s coming out of it. yum! It looks great, the color is great, the white enamel interior is holding up well, hasn’t chipped anywhere and we aren’t even the most careful people. These are heavy pots when loaded, so it is something the wife has to call me in for loading into and retrieving from stove when it’s full of goodness. This Lodge 7 Quart Enameled Cast Iron Oval Dutch Oven is a prized kitchen tool. I’m actually writing this long after purchase and many uses. Her last delicious pot roast was a reminder to write this review, so it still looks as good as the day we bought it.

I baught this 7qt DO thinking I may use it for when I am making a turkey or duck. But instead I am using it for my sourdough bread baking. It is a perfect size for a big loaf.

I have ordered the pot as a Christmas gift. It chipped immediately on a first use, then enamel is coming off the bottom just from sitting on the stove and the lid edge is rusting from washing it. I regret this purchase.

Works well

Great heat distribution. Let it cool after use and it’s easy to clean. I also have the 3 quart and 5 quart. One of these is always sitting on a burner on my stove. I braise lamb shanks, pork shoulder and other tougher cuts of meat. Best pot ever for stews, soups and baking beans and mixed vegetables. Great for cooking pasta. Love all of my Lodge products.

Excellent Dutch Oven purchased in Abu Dhabi best pot for slow stewing ie Lamb Shacks and beef stews, good purchase would recommend to anyone,
