Lodge Cast Iron 5.5qt Indigo Enameled Dutch Oven

I originally purchased this to bake sourdough bread in (still waiting on the starter to be ready). In the meantime, I used it for making lasagna soup and a batch of rice. Both turned out great. The Dutch oven is quite heavy and is really good quality. Food doesn't stick to the interior, and it's easy to clean. The lasagna soup obviously was made with marinara, but that washed off easily without leaving a stain on the cream interiors. Even my picky husband is impressed and excited to cook more with the Dutch oven this winter. Highly recommend!

We have been looking for a Dutch oven for a while and while in Walmart we saw this Lodge one for a great price. We wanted to see if it was available in a different color the sale assc. told us to check online. We found the same price and the right color on the website.

I can't believe how wonderful this is! Much better than a slow cooker, 2 hours at 350 and the roast melts in your mouth, incredibly easy to clean. Beef stew is insanely good, chicken noodle soup better than any store bought!! And I've only had this a week!!! It is a bit heavy, but it is easy to clean an no forever chemicals, just baked on enamel.

I wanted to purchase a Dutch oven as an Christmas/anniversary present for my boyfriend and I to expand our culinary capabilities, and I was delighted to find this affordable alternative to the pricey Le Creusets. I'm impressed by the quality and the quick turnaround on the delivery so close to Christmas- we were able to make some delicious short ribs for Christmas!

I love this pot. The inside does stain, but that’s normal for enamel. Can’t beat it for the price. Highly recommend I did have to return the one I ordered online due to it getting a big chip on handle from sloppy delivery. The delivery person, instead of walking up the 3 cement steps, choose to set it up on the porch upside down on the handles. The broken pieces were inside the packing bag .

I just spent $45 on this and when I received it, there’s clearly a reduced sticker on it that says it’s only $26.80. SERIOUSLY?? Why would Walmart think someone would be stupid enough not to see this. What a rip off. It’s going back!!! Really bad business practice Walmart!!!

Oooooh, I'm in love. It's versatile. A bit hard to clean, but can it cook. The only issue is the weight. This pot weighs at least 10 pounds empty. And with the lid on it's tall--I had to move my oven racks. the color is fabulous! If you have never had a dutch oven (me), it will drive you to cook new things in new ways.

At first I like the size and I love cooking/ baking with cast iron, so the enamel interior made it easy to clean. but after a few uses I noticed that the enamel was chipped on the inside. I hand wash all my cookware and I don't use metal utensils so i don't know when or how the chips occurred. It says the max baking temp is 550⁰and i haven't gotten near that, i don't break 500⁰. So now I'm stuck with a heavy pot that i can't use, who wants to get enamel on their soup.

Walmart delivered this gift in a bag. It should have been put in a box with packing material for protection Who knows what it was banging against on the delivery truck? Seems like a no-brainer to me, considering how expensive Lodge items are. It should have been cared for in a much better way. Now my gift has caused a problem for the person I was showering with love.

I haven't even used it yet. I literally just opened it and this what it looks like! I am so mad!! And that's an understatement just because this is public! This issue is happening way too often with Walmart!! I absolutely love Lodge Cast Iron products I have several pieces but makes me extremely angry 🤬
