# Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven | 5.5 Quart | Made In - Made In Our 5.5 quart enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven can sear, saute, braise, or bake. Crafted in Northeast France, this is a kitchen essential you’ll have forever. Hand-enameled cast iron for the ultimate kitchen heirloom. ## Description The world’s finest Enameled Cast Iron hails from Northeast France, where craftsmen have been pouring professional-grade cast iron since the early 1920s. So that’s exactly where we headed to craft the debut piece in our Enameled Cast Iron Collection. The original slow cooker, the Dutch Oven’s exceptional heat retention and circulation transforms even tough cuts into tender, fall-off-the-bone braises. Its light-colored cooking surface makes it easy to keep an eye on fond (and thus flavor) development, and the non stick enamel simplifies cleaning. Our proprietary Cloud Cover Lid boasts pea-sized dimples to trap steam and return moisture to your food. Built with generations of expertise, we have perfected the ratio of cast iron body to enamel cooking surface to bring you an heirloom-quality Dutch Oven. ## Dimensions - Capacity: 5.5 QT - Total Width: 14.5” - Height to Handles: 4.84” - Total Height to Lid Knob: 7 1/8" - Cooking Surface Area: 8.75” - Cooking Surface Height: 4.65” - Weight: 13.69 lbs ## Care - Hand Wash Only - Lifetime Warranty ## Care - Hand Wash Only - Lifetime Warranty - [Detailed Usage and Safety Instructions](https://madeincookware.com/pages/detailed-usage-safety-instructions) ## Shipping, Warranty, and Returns - We offer easy shipping options for the US and EU.

The blemishes are very very minor. I have used it once and extremely pleased with the performance.

We've already made numerous meals in it. — Kierky ### ★★★★★ Great I love this Dutch oven! It's well made (like most of their stuff is), and I'd say competes with my sister in-law's Le Creuset. — Chris ### ★★★★★ Haven’t used it a lot yet, but compares very favorably to my Le Cruset pots. — Jeffrey ### ★★★★★ Beautiful dutch oven Beautiful dutch oven.

Great replacement for my cheap old Dutch oven, and a great price. — MS ### ★★★★★ Perfect Dutch Oven I honestly could not find the discrepancy in the Dutch oven! So I felt I got a bargain. Love the Dutch oven for bread, stews etc . I got the cream color which is a lovely neutral that will go with any kitchen. Cooks evenly! I’ve used it at 450 so far with no issues at all — Kanna ### ★★★★★ Checked off one on my bucket list! I purchased the 5.5 qt Dutch oven at a fantastic price & am so glad I did. Have wanted a ceramic clad one for years but just couldn’t spend the money. This is a quality made lifetime investment. Cooktop or oven, it turns out great food. — T Gorman ### ★★★★★ Worked well Just purchased this product and used it. Loved it! — Carmen ### ★★★★★ Great Dutch oven Elegant look and top level heat retention. An excellent item — JK ### ★★★★★ Excellent Dutch Cookware Perfect size Dutch cooker. Easily cleaned and does not hold stains. Warm water washes everything off. — Mrs. E ### ★★★★★ Flawless This was a factory seconds piece and I’m really hard pressed to see any defect. This was perfect and will serve me for years to come — Peter ### ★★★★★ .Better than Le Creuset I’ve been A customer for more than five years and 90% of my cookware are from Made In. It’s one thing when you buy a product and you have used them for years and it Stands the test of time which speaks highly of the quality. That in itself deserves five stars, but when you come across a challenge or a problem down the road that’s when you can really test how a business stands behind their product. Made in goes above and beyond all the time I have no problems buying any product from them and I will highly recommend them to anyone. This Dutch Oven is better than Le Creuset. My only minor complaint is that the handle gets really hot — Alexis ### ★★★★★ Great deal! I purchased this for my daughter to introduce her to the quality of Made In and the multiple uses of a well made Dutch oven. The look and feel is beautiful. She’s already used it and loves it. — PK --- URL: https://madeincookware.com/products/round-dutch-oven-seconds/ruby-red
