Best cookware March 1, 2010
M. C. Bernier (Spain)
Le Creuset has incredible cookware. This set I found particularly appealing pricewise and it fit my needs perfectly. They are the smaller range of their kind so take that into account.
The oven and skillet are cast-iron. There is a piece that is only for oven and fridge/freezer and cannot be put on an open flame.
The stockpot is of enamel-on-steel.
They clean very easily and are just the best of their kind to cook with. They keep the heat vey evenly, you just can tell the difference immediately as soon as you start using this cookware.
The sauce pan is definitely a must if you enjoy making your own sauces.
It's the first Le Creuset set that I could afford so I'm going to enjoy this.

The cast iron pots alone deserve a 5-star review. I love them so much, I want to buy an additional complementary color set! However, I must admit that I've had these pots for over a year and haven't yet used the stockpot or the casserole dish. So, what would I do with an additional pair if I were to buy the 2nd set? Truth be told, I'm hesitant to use the stock pot because it's steel and not cast iron. I tend to be on the rougher side as far as usage goes and I'd be nonplussed if it chipped b/c I'd know not what to do. This is why the cast iron has been a treasure. So, even though I have miscellaneous pieces I've yet to venture forward with a) I'm beside myself that all these pieces match b)the cast iron can take a beating and look like new after soap&water c) the cast pieces will not ever disintegrate like lesser quality pots d)(if I'm lucky)My children could use these if I look after the pots carefully enough!
Caution:
- Try to rinse as much excess water off the pot/towel dry if possible after washing. Else, there may be early signs of rust. Nothing a rewash and a vigorous towel dry won't take care of though! After I did this, and was quite careful about excess water on my pots, no rust has threatened to return.
- Don't was in the dishwasher. I bought a Martha Stewart cast iron French oven (*not Le Creuset)and after boiling pasta threw it in the dishwasher only to find it covered - Yes, Covered - in rust that would not come off no matter how hard I tried. I only used it once and had to throw it away. Moral of the story: Don't put your cast iron pots/pans in the dishwasher!
