Product Description
5 QT, Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Dutch Oven With Eared Loop Side Handles.
Amazon.com Review
The American-based company Lodge has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century. No other metal is as long-lasting and works as well for spreading and retaining heat evenly during cooking. Lodge's Logic line of cookware comes factory pre-seasoned with the company's vegetable oil formula, and is ready to use right out of the box. At 10-1/4 inches in diameter and 4 inches deep, this 5-quart Dutch oven holds a heap of chili, chicken and rice, or fruit cobbler. This model is not the campfire style, with legs, wire handle, and a lid for coals. This one is flat-bottomed to sit on a stovetop burner or in the oven, with a domed lid that sends moisture back into the pot. Loop handles aid in carrying with oven mitts. While the Dutch oven comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. After the meal is done, simply scrub the cast iron with a stiff brush and hot water, no soap, and dry immediately. Lodge covers the sturdy oven with a lifetime limited warranty against defects, and when cared for properly, this virtually indestructible pan should last for generations. --Ann Bieri

 5-Quart Dutch Oven October 30, 2008
Scrub (without soap) first, let dry, add 1 large bottle of peanut oil, heat and french fry 2 or 3 pounds of potatoes to season Dutch Oven, and you're all set to cook your favorite recipes. The top will also fit the 10-1/2" round griddle plus regular skillet - very kewl.
Use it evey day October 23, 2008
I love it so much, and use it to cook healthy food everyday. It doesn't stick at all if you heat the pot first, pour a little bit cold vegetable oil, then cook your vegetable or meat immediately. The only problem is that it is pretty heavy and hot. But it doesn't bother my that much.
I love this Dutch Oven! October 21, 2008
I bought this about a month ago and love it! In reading some of the other reviews, I saw that some of the other reviewers suggested seasoning it even though it was already pre-seasoned, so I did season it myself. The first time I used it, I made venison chili in it, and it was the best chili my family has ever eaten, although I didn't do anything differently from what I have done when making it in regular ovenware. This is a great value, because in kitchen stores, the same exact piece sells for $49 or more.
 Great product, great price October 20, 2008
Very happy with this dutch oven. I reseasoned it once more and am sure this will last for a long, long time.
Cast Iron and SuperSaver Shipping = Woo Hoo! October 1, 2008

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.
