My husband purchased a Le Crueset enamel coated cast iron dutch oven last year. I try to cook with it as often as I can; stews, soups, and sauces. I honestly believe that the food not only cooks better and faster but tastes that much better than when I made it in a stainless steel pot. It retains heat and browns meats and vegetables wonderfully. The food I have cooked in it cooks much faster. Several of my family members own some Le Crueset and they love all their pieces.
There are two concerns people may have. The price and the care insrtuctions. Le Crueset products are rather costly...
