STAUB Cast Iron Roaster/Cocotte, Round, Cherry Red, 24 cm, 3.8 L

Probably one of the best if not the best cast iron pots on the market. There is a reason more than 45% of Michelin star chefs use this product. When you cook with it you'll understand why. It's absolutely brilliant for cooking baking self basing heat retention it ticks all boxes

Lovely casserole, just as described , perfect.

There is not much to say for this to be honest. It is as sturdy as they come and it looks amazing as well. I have baked bread in it, cooked meat for hours, made stews and everything comes out great every time. I was a little hesitant of the black enamel when I first received it but it just does a great job. Nothing sticks to it and it creates a great fond when searing meats etc. According to their guidance you need to heat it up a little gently so we have been starting it on low for 3-4 minutes and then go only up to medium, medium-high but there is no need for more heat. Just be a little more patient until it warms up and resist the urge to crank the heat up because once it gets to temp, it is not going down!

I have used it for quite a while and am sure that this Staub Dutch Oven is absolutely outstanding. Although it is a little bit heavy to be carried around, its heavy cast iron construction provides incredible, even heat retention, making it perfect for slow braising, stewing, and roasting. The unique "rainfall" lid design is a game-changer—it continuously drips condensed moisture back onto the food, resulting in unbelievably tender and flavorful dishes every time. It's remarkably versatile, going seamlessly from stovetop searing to oven baking. The durable black enamel interior is easy to clean and, with gentle care, develops a natural non-stick surface over time without any chemical coatings. It's truly built to last a lifetime. While it's an investment and requires hand-washing, its performance is unmatched. If you love cooking, this pot elevates every meal and is worth every penny. A 10/10 recommend for any serious home cook.

This cookware was talked about on TV, but the price did concern me how could I justify the cost, I am absolutely delighted I overcame my worries because it really is worth every penny, unlike other types of cocottes the unique lid means none of my food has dried out, whether I use it as a stock pot on top of the stove or as a casserole in the oven I don't have to add lots of water/stock, so my food flavours are more concentrated without the need to spend ages reducing it down. Because it looks good and is such good quality I have no problems taking it from the stove to the dinner table knowing that the contents will be piping hot and the food is perfectly cooked. One of the most used kitchen items, this one does not go into a cupboard.

Love the size and color. Just be prepared as quite heavy.

Beautifully made cast iron casserole with a black interior that does not discolour. Heavy, but that is to be expected. Food cooks perfectly at a low heat owing to the excellent conduction.

I had to try two of these before I got one of acceptable quality, which judging by the other reviews is quite good. My first one had a very bobbly patch of enamel on the inside that looked like sand was trapped under the enamel. I actually queried it with Zwilling to see if it was a problem, who were pretty vague and asked me where I bought it before just saying if I wasn't happy to return it to Amazon! Considering these sell for £299 at Zwilling and I paid £141 I was a bit sceptical and the old "if its feels too god to be true it probably is" came to mind. Given some of the quality issues with other reviewers too, I was concerned that Zwilling were pushing their seconds out through Amazon. However my second one was actually in perfect condition and so relatively a bargain - Its still expensive compared to a chinese one, but it is a thing of great beauty and obviously works like a Staub should!
