Lodge 3.6 Quart Enameled Cast Iron Oval Casserole With Lid– Dual Handles – Oven Safe up to 500° F or on Stovetop - Use to Marinate, Cook, Bake, Refrigerate and Serve – Island Spice Red

I have many cast iron pots and this braiser was great for the price. Perfect for making sweet potato casserole, meat, stews and so many others! It gets alot of use out of it. Would buy again. We got the white. It’s a marshmallow creamy color and very nice.

I bought this one first and loved it so much that I picked up the 6.5‑quart version at TJ Maxx because Amazon was out of the color I wanted, and I’m so glad I grabbed it. These have become my daily go‑to pieces in the kitchen. They heat evenly, clean easily, and perform every bit as well as my Le Creuset—just without the hefty price tag. For anyone who wants the durability and performance of high‑end enameled cast iron without spending a fortune, this line is an excellent choice.

I have the Lodge 3.6 quart cast iron enamel casserole pan, and I love it. I also have Lodge dutch ovens in 3 quart, 4.5 quart, 6 quart and 7.5 quart. I have had them all for about six months and I use them all the time. Lodge never claimed that these cast iron enamel coated products are made in America, their cast iron skillets and such are made in America, and I guess if where something is made is what determines whether you like an item, you will most likely not like this casserole pan. I am not sure what some of the reviewers are doing with the casserole pan, or why they have peeled and cracked really bad. I use my casserole pan all of the time. I take care of them, I don't put them in the dishwasher, which is what causes the enamel to crack, I store them carefully, though I guess not too carefully as they are stacked together, and I don't wash them when they are still hot, but I don't let the food sit in them for extended periods either. I do not use this pan as an everyday skillet either, and I don’t believe it was meant for that either, that is what their skillets are for. I heat them up prior to putting food in them to cook, though I do use high temperatures at times. I put them in the oven almost every time I use them after starting on the stove. This casserole pan has held up wonderfully and make the most wonderful meals for me and my family. I love it, and it is not super expensive. Seeing as I have five items from Lodge, if there was really something wrong with the enamel coated products, I would assume I would have experienced something by now with at least one of the ovens or casserole pan, and I have not. Don't put them in the dishwasher!! They will not hold up. These are truly wonderful tools for cooking. I make the best pot roasts, short ribs, chicken coq au vin, and more with them. The 3.6 casserole is perfect for chicken coq au vin, and one pot chicken and rice, and dishes like those. I absolutely love that pan and I use it frequently. I make enough food for four people comfortably, five or six depending on portions. It can fit about 8 chicken thighs with skin and 1 pound baby potatoes or a cup of rice. I will detail the other items that I have below, just as an FYI. I have made pot roast and beef stew in the 3 quart dutch oven, and it has come out so good, so don't pay attention to the people that say you can't do so with the smaller ovens. You 100% can. I make my elder parents food in the 3 quart all the time, and it the makes perfect amount for them to have a couple of dinners. The 3 quart is also great for baked ziti dishes, bread, and the like. This dutch oven is perfect for a single person to make magnificent meals in. The 4.5 quart dutch oven is also perfect for making pot roasts, stews, and such for a couple of people. It has a little more room than the 3 quart, making it perfect for two people. The 6 quart dutch oven is perfect for making food for my husband and I that we can eat for a few days. It is also great for making food when we have company over. This oven would be perfect for a family of four, though you could also make enough for six without leftovers. The 7.5 quart dutch oven is perfect for a large family. I use this when we are eating with my brother and his children, or we are having several couples over and want left overs. My husband loves leftovers. I hope this helps. The only time I have ever written a review this long or detailed is for the Lodge enamel coated items. I really love these products and find them extremely useful. This casserole pan is a wonderful addition to my kitchen.

I just love this pan. It took forever (well, a month) for amazon to get it to me. Two different times they said it was delayed and They seemed to be encouraging me to cancel my order but I had gotten a fantastic price on it and wasn’t about to cancel lol. The pan is a terrific size, very well made, gorgeous color. It does have an imperfection on the underside of the lid where the paint didn’t quite cover it as well. It’s just a very small amount, no big deal, just not quite as turquoise in those two spots. But the pan is beautiful and cast iron is always my pan of choice. Food tastes better when it was made in cast iron. Love it.

I consider this the ultimate cast iron fry pan. Nice even heat over the whole bottom and a breeze to clean. I also use it for the oven for baking chicken pieces, but mostly I use it on the stove top. This is my 3rd Lodge enamel dutch oven and probably my 10th Lodge product. I don't mind spending the extra money if I feel it's worth it. I've looked at other brands in the store and to me they all looked cheap. I use it a lot more than I thought I would

The pot/pan itself is nice. It has all the benefits you would think an enameled cast iron braised would have, including plenty of surface area for searing/browning and plenty of heat retention for slow cooking/braising. The braised is larger than I imagined. The dimensions are accurately described but it is a BIG pan. Also, while the one I purchased was “used - mint” it did have chipped enamel on one of the handles. I’m keeping it because it’s probable that, over the years, I will chip it somewhere and it doesn’t affect the cooking ability of the pan. Why so many people insist on perfection when a blemish doesn’t really alter the usefulness … (let the reader finish the thought).

Lodge is one of the best . I purchased a 3.6 quart cast iron that meets enamel and is a fantastic way to enjoy cast iron but weight is still very heavy never lost an oz after the meeting ! Heat seems to be a consistent well functioning. Looks very durable . Appearance in white which is more of a friendly cream beautiful .Well made and looks like it will be around for a while ... you may not need to replace this one it's a keeper . I will keep my on lodge for smaller ones with less weight for the aging wrist lol.

I love this pan! So far so good. If you’re debating on getting it don’t think about it any further add it to your cart! It came in perfect condition, one small chip but not completely noticeable, good size for cooking chicken, shrimp, sausage, or to braise chicken in etc. perfect gift to yourself or anyone else.

I have many cast iron cookware from Lodge and had been contemplating for a long time. Finally I took the plunge and I am very happy that I did. The packaging was superb. Build quality is top notch and I cooked mutton today and turned out real good. Another best buy, however is a tad pricey.

Lodge is a US company, but these Dutch ovens are made in China and are excellent. This Lodge has superior wear and enameling than my Chasseur, made in France. The Chasseur does get used more, as the Lodge's low, wide size is less versatile, but there in not a mark on the Lodge enamel, it is noticeably thicker and will wear better. The Chasseur is already very worn and chipped on the rims. It'll still work for many years, but at the cost, it should be better.

Me encanta, es súper bonita y resistente, y tamaño ideal, distribuye y retiene muy bien el calor, súper versátil para todo tipo de comidas, se ha convertido en la cacerola que más uso en mi cocina, si son pesadas pero vale la pena, la calidad es excelente

Exellent pour cuisiner
