Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Although pricy, i find this to be versatile and really worth it. The price is steep, but the craftsmanship is top notch!

The le creuset bread cooker works perfectly. It makes great sourdough bread.

Although it isn't their newest color, my favorite is flame. And it's executed beautifully in this two-piece set. The only negative is the rings and logo on the base.

It can be used for cooking other things besides bread. Braising, baking, searing, etc. I preheat everything to 500 degrees before i start baking.

If you're serious about baking bread, and you're passionate about certain colors of le creuset, this gorgeous baker is a no-brainer. Makes fabulous artisan bread, even gluten free. The smell of cinnamon raisin bread is wonderful.



Cons

I find it's okay, i prefer my dutch oven.

Highlights

Quality


It’s well made and just heavy enough to be manageable.


The quality of this bread is amazing n it’s amazing how fast and easy this tool makes it happen.


The included instructions/recipe say to let your loaf proof right in the pan, covered.


The cooking oil in the pan smoked so much in the oven and ruined the flavor of the bread.

Price


Had to take a star off because the astronomical price.


Ultimately, i can honestly say that $300 is not excessive if you really enjoy your bread making.


This happened to be on sale from amazon, thank you as i wanted one for a very long time.

Shipping


I thought i was ordering through amazon with free returns but sur la table requires return shipment to them and i had to pay $13 to return.


It was on time and packaged well.

Packaging/appearance


The unit arrived… and it is distinctly gray.


I still rated it high because the pot was in good shape, but it was a mess if you judged the box and packing.


The amazon box was the outer box and it was not damaged.

Competitiveness


No other brand of cookware works so hard for you, then brings its pretty self to the table.


I paired this with italian deruta pottery bowls, antipasto bowls, etc.


I debated several times on buying this dutch oven over a less expensive brand.


Sure, but le creuset cast iron cookware is like comparing a average car with a luxury car.

    But i made the mistake of buying the offwhite meringue color and it gets so dirty on the outside even in a perfectly clean oven

    I guess any oil on your hands or countertops will transfer and burn

    If i bought it again i would get black for sure

    Technically you dont need the dome to bake bread


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I bought it to more easily remove the dome for finishing baking the bread


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As with most le creuset the product is wonderful but heavy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have had a different baker also expensive for years and i loved it but was looking for a different crust and a bit of change

    I bought the white color and not sure how clean it will stay but served its intended purpose
