Summary: Cast Iron and SuperSaver Shipping = Woo Hoo!
Comment: I have had a couple of cast iron skillets prior to purchasing this Dutch Oven from Amazon. This Oven is great. I use it for stews and beans and sourdough bread and all sorts of things.
Because I will use this in the oven rather than over a campfire, the handles on the side of the Dutch Oven work much better that the wire bail handle. The picture may have the wire hadle. This isn't that pot.
I use this as my crockpot replacement. Don't need one with this around. That's just my $.02, others will say that both are so cheap that you could get a crockpot too, and it would still be much cheaper than Le Crueset.
It's cast iron. You know how good that is. The only thing I don't make in it are tomato sauces and other things that would not be so great with a reactive vessel. In several years, when the seasoning is rock hard, even that might not be a problem.
Amazon has a great price and super saver shipping on cast iron. Read that again. Free shipping on cast iron. When I got the packing list, the shipping alone would have been about $13.00, ground.
Many comments here about the seasoning - both good and bad. Having had cast iron before, I washed it and reseasoned it by oiling it and baking it upside down for an hour or so at 350 degrees (F) before using it the first time. I also stuck my other cast iron pieces in there at the same time. Why not? Worked great. No sticking at all.
I reseason my stuff 1 - 2 times a year, at least. It's just part of maintaning the stuff. I will probably do the new dutch oven more often than that for the first several years to get it to the same point where the other pans are a bit faster.

Summary: perfect cooker
Comment: This 5 qt. Dutch Oven is the perfect cooker,for roasts and chicken in the oven to soups and stews on the stovetop. I especially love knowing that Lodge Logic is an American made product. Iron cookware is the healthiest non-stick there is, and it's easy to clean up. I have been using Lodge Logic skillets and lids for years now and am So happy I got this Dutch Oven! This Iron cookware will last a Lifetime and will never have to be replaced again! Iron cookware holds the heat and cooks evenly.

Summary: Lodge cast-iron like no other
Comment: Extremely quick delivery.
High quality cast-iron from Lodge! I have a skillet from them that I love, and this Dutch oven is of the same caliber quality. Currently I use it for "almost no-knead" bread, and as winter approaches, I'm sure I will be using it for various other dishes. I highly recommend this dutch oven if you're looking for one!

Summary: Fantastic Pot
Comment: This 3 quart chicken fryer is the addition I was wanting for my cookware. My larger dutch oven is great for larger uses, but this one is great for things that accomodate my husband and I. I roasted, at 325 degrees, yellow squash, cut into chunks, today and it was fantastic.
I cannot praise Lodge cast iron enough for the quality in their products. My next and 4th purchase will be the 10 1/4" skillet. I already have the 13 1/4" skillet and it is fantastic for pancakes and anything that requires large cooking surface.
And for you people with ceramic stove tops....NO Problem.... I have done without my cast iron pots since Hurricane Katrina and when replaced all, I got ceramic stovetop. Thought I would not be able to use the iron...but I was missing cooking in my iron pots so much that I took the plunge....NOT A PROBLEM. Just be careful not to slide around and scratch the stovetop...and for goodness sakes don't drop this heavy stuff on it either.
If you want perfect bacon, just fry in the cast iron...cannot be beat.....really for anything you want to cook.
Thank you Amazon.com for offering these items at such a reasonable cost....

Summary: Great!
Comment: Not only is this great as Dutch ovens go it's good enough that I've expanded my use of the Dutch oven! Five qts is a good size. It's not so large you are going to confuse it with a stock pot, but it's more than large enough for everything I've wanted to use it for.
It's heavy enough construction to really hold heat but not so absurdly heavy that it's hard to handle.
The MSRP on these makes them one of the best values in the kitchen; the price on Amazon makes it a real steal. No kitchen should be without one.
