Beautiful but not durable:

I purchased this pot for myself as a Christmas gift. I read and followed the directions for use and care, always hand-washed the pot, and I never dropped it or banged it into anything.
With normal use and special care, the pot started to get chips in the enamel at the base after about three months. I used it maybe twice a week.
After six months, the chips extended to the inside of the pot and it is now unusable.

I love this pot- it's great for lots of things-pasta, soups and stews, popcorn, etc. I would recommend it.

Beautiful pot - just don't cook with it!:

I own many Le Creuset pots (cast iron) and think that they are the best to cook with - even heat and long lasting. This is not of the same quality and should not bear the Le Creuset name.

I wasn't exactly trying to put the pot through it's paces, just boiling water (at a medium heat per the instructions).
The color is quite nice, and if you just want a pretty pot sitting on your... more info

If the price seems to good to be true it probably is.:

I am very disappointed in this stock pot. I question that this is authentic Le Creuset cookware. There is no imprint or mark on the pot or lid itself (only on the knob on top of the lid). There was a sticker that said Le Creuset along with one that said MADE IN TAIWAN. It is nowhere near as heavyweight as I expected; the weight was that of any moderate price-range metal pot, no more. Beyond my general dissatisfaction with the quality, there is a sizable chip in the enamel on one handle, not a good omen for... more info
