Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Staub 5 Quart Round Cocotte, Grenadine
Customer Review: Beautiful workhorse!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to admit, having used Le Creuset for years, I didn't hold out much hope that this pot - gifted to me - could possibly be an improvement. The things that I value in an enameled pot were there: heavy enameled, cast iron construction; oven-proof handle; even heat distribution; gas stove-top to oven ease. But that lid? It just didn't seem like it would make that much difference. Boy! Am I happy to be proved wrong!
This pot has out-performed my Le Creuset repeatedly in the two weeks that I've put it through its paces. Sautéeing, braising, stewing, oven-baked casseroles, soup; you name it, this pot has done an exceptional job. Those little bumps on the lid keep everything so much more moist. Also, there is virtually no loss of liquid volume with the lid on. It's an incredibly tight seal. The clean-up is a breeze! And, esthetically, the grenadine glaze is gorgeous!
It is so worth the price, I just purchased the 8 quart round Cocotte for large-batch cooking. I'm definitely a convert!
Customer Review: Best Enameled cast Iron Cocotte ever
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the 5 Quart to try when it was a lightning deal on Amazon and was highly impressed. Not only does it look better than Le Creuset it performs better. The lid fits better and the color is outstanding: grenadine in my case. Staub is a little heavier than Le Creuset but I think this speaks about Staub's quality. And speaking of Amazon, I had a problem with a 8 quart I bought. They replaced it free with no hassles. This is serious cookware. I highly recommend Staub and Amazon.Customer Review: Great Product!

We gave the Staub to friends as a gift. They were absolutely delighted and made us dinner in it! Fabulous winter stew turned out wonderfully! The pot conducts heat perfectly, holds heat in to keep the food warm for long periods of time and is absolutely lovely sitting on the stove. All of us are delighted with the pot!Customer Review: Nice piece.

This is a hidden gem. I searched for a good dutch oven for 6 months and finally found the ultimate with this pot. Perfect for baking bread. Good price too.Customer Review: Nice pot - too bad it arrived cracked
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered this during Amazon's lightning sale last month. The pot shipped quickly and looked great when I took it out of the box, but I had to return it because it was cracked. A pot this heavy needs extra padding for shipping. Too bad, the color is really nice.
