I bought this pot on a Lightening Deal just before Christmas '09. Love the value and the pot. However in order for the cookware to last you must follow the care instructions. You cannot cook on any temperature higher than medium. So if you are boiling water it takes awhile. However, once you get it boiling the pot will retain the heat very well. The clean-up is easy, but keep it out of the dishwasher. I love that it can go in the oven and it is pretty enough to place on the table and serve from in a casual dining setting. I typically store my pans in the cupboard with the lids inverted on top of them. According to the care instructions this will lead to chipping of the enamel on the lid. In order to avoid that they suggest placing the rubber clips that come as part of the packaging around the rim of the pot before inverting the lid on top. So everything takes a bit of extra time and effort with this cookware. Just be aware and be sure you are up for that before you order.
Pet peeve: This pot came packaged in a really, really shelf worn box. Some of the cardboard inserts inside were torn. Still, the pot itself was pristine. If I had ordered this as a gift I would have been too embarrassed to give it. But what if I had ordered it as a gift and had it sent directly to someone else? Yikes.

this is a closeout color with a price that was very good. the ability to slow cook with enameled cast iron made processing our garden tomatoes a breeze this year. i think mario would be proud of our tomato sauce ;)

This pot is less money than some others but it looks just as beautiful and works just as well. It looks so pretty ,even when not in use,left out on the stove. It cooks well, keeps food warm, holding in the heat for a long time , even after the stove is turned off and it cleans well. I highly recommend it.It is also the perfect size, not too big, but also not too small.I chose the sage green color and Love it!
