Overmont Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven - 5.5QT Pot with Lid Cookbook & Cotton Potholders - Heavy-Duty Cookware for Braising, Stews, Roasting, Sourdough Baking Graphite Gray

Beautiful, solid, even heating, easy cleaning. Good for roasting, even better for all day simmering of beans or stew.

Giving it 5 stars for initial quality and performance. I got the gray version and the color and glazing is well done. Having had several of the brand name LaC- products over the years, I know that this may be slightly less well-glazed but even the expensive ones do chip around the edges here & there with use, so a few battle-worn blemishes over don't concern me, if that's all that occurs (internal or external flaking is another story, will see...), and for the price I won't feel as bad when it does, vs the $400 equivalent. Heavy, thick, cooks & cleans up just as it should. Go-to dutch oven, will gladly by more by this maker. For the price it's a no-brainer.

This Overmont dutch oven exceeded expectation! This purchase was initiated by my desire to make sourdough bread - which I'm working on however I just used it for lentil soup. Must be the cast iron & self basting that cooked it quickly & provided abundant flavor. Very well made at a reasonable price. & many colors to choose from. I read reviews that mentioned how heavy this pot is ... cast iron is heavy, this is my 4th piece of cast iron. The little cotton pot handle covers are an excellent way to move it around on the stove but I will use larger mitts for in & out of oven.

This is. a great dutch Oven that I use primarily as a bean pot. I bought it to replace a ceramic one that was chipped. It works great and is very heavy, which helps the cooking process. Perfect in the oven and very easy to clean! And if you are looking to make something other than beans, it will be great for that as well. Highly recommended.

Well-built heavy Dutch oven. Made of Cast Iron covered with Enamel. Beautiful color and glossy finish and easy to clean. Versatile size, using to bake bread. Well packed, received in good condition. Pleased with the performance.

Bought to replace my trusty old dutch oven that I burned beyond repair. I love the color. The quality is excellent. Super even cooking and heat retention for slow cooking stews and roasts. Better enamel work than the one it replaced so it feels extra nice!

I am very happy with the size, the appearance, the performance and the color….especially for the price!

This is my first Dutch oven. The color is gorgeous. It’s very heavy and well made. It’s nice that it came with a silicone pad to set it on.

I loved the sight of Overmont Cast Iron stew pan. The colour and finish is amazing. I have yet to use it as I recently received it.

Ho acquistato questa casseruola in ghisa smaltata Overmont (modello rotondo da 28 cm, colore Blu Lago) e se vi piace cucinare, vi dico subito che è un acquisto che vi cambierà la vita ai fornelli. Offre prestazioni paragonabili a marchi blasonati che costano il triplo! I Punti di Forza (Perché la adoro): Cottura impeccabile e calore uniforme: La ghisa è magica per trattenere e distribuire il calore. È perfetta per i ragù a cottura lenta, gli stracotti, gli spezzatini, ma anche per cuocere il pane in forno (viene con una crosta pazzesca!). Versatilità totale: La uso ovunque. Parte dal piano a induzione (viene riconosciuta immediatamente senza problemi) e finisce direttamente in forno. Il fatto che sia smaltata significa che non teme cibi acidi come il pomodoro o il vino, a differenza della ghisa grezza. Estetica favolosa: Il colore "Lago-blu" è semplicemente stupendo, con una finitura lucida elegante. A fine cottura, invece di sporcare altri piatti, la prendo e la metto direttamente al centro della tavola. Fa un figurone. Capacità generosa: Con un diametro di 28 cm, è bella capiente. È l'ideale per cucinare per tutta la famiglia (4-6 persone) o per preparare porzioni abbondanti da congelare. Pulizia semplice: Grazie al rivestimento antiaderente smaltato, non serve la noiosa manutenzione della ghisa tradizionale. Basta un po' di acqua calda e una spugna morbida per farla tornare come nuova. Cosa c'è da sapere (Le "regole" della ghisa): Il peso si fa sentire: È ghisa vera e di ottima qualità, il che significa che è pesante! Soprattutto quando è piena di cibo da 28 cm, maneggiarla richiede un po' di forza. Attenzione agli shock termici: Per farla durare una vita, ricordatevi di non metterla mai sotto l'acqua fredda quando è ancora rovente, e usate solo mestoli in legno o silicone per non graffiare lo smalto interno. Verdetto Finale: Se sognate una "cocotte" olandese per elevare le vostre ricette invernali e le cotture lente, ma non volete spendere 200 o 300 euro per i marchi francesi famosi, questa Overmont è la scelta definitiva. Robusta, bellissima e performante. Straconsigliata!

I love this Dutch oven and haven’t had any issues with it. I’ve used it for sourdough, soups, and pasta and it’s been great for all of them. It deglazes very well, and comes clean easily. I’ve soaked it occasionally just to make cleaning super easy but it hasn’t been necessary. I adore the colour, the lid fits well, and the enamel is nearly perfect with the exception of one TINY spot that didn’t get covered but it doesn’t impact cooking at all and I haven’t had any issues with it. Pics of before and after deglazing, and the tiny imperfection. Overall I love this Dutch oven, you can’t beat the price, and I’d definitely recommend it.

Wouah. Belle, très bien travaillée. Belle couleur. Superbe qualité. Lourde mais c'est normal c'est de la fonte. Prix incroyable. Je l'adore. Livrée en 2 jours. Petits cadeaux en plus livre de cuisine, maniques et sous plat en silicone. Merci au vendeur
