"Ideal pot!"
I bought one of these for my son who was setting up his new home; when I visited I made dinner and used the dish - now I want one too! It's so much easier than the cast-iron one I have already, lovely though that is!

This was bought for me as a present so I was a little unsure when I first looked at it but I needn't have worried. It is definitely lighter than the 'other' cast casseroles but just as good. The non-stick is absolutely fantastic - meat simply slides on the surface and cleaning consists of swilling in hot, soapy water. I have used it on the hob to fry then put in in the oven to braise. What a luxury to have something to use on the hob which can also go in the oven. It also looks good enough to take to the table. Really, really pleased with this.
I have looked at these for some time and was concerned that they would be too heavy. Having experienced the cast iron ones on holiday which went with the Aga and found I could hardly lift them, I was concerned these would be the same. No the pan is so light and another great big plus, so easy to clean.
I bought the 24cm version of this item last year and have used it a lot. It works perfectly on my induction hob. I only had glass dishes before which can't go on the hob. Now I start food on the hob then straight into the oven, less to wash up. I have arthritis in hands and wrists and can't lift heavy cast iron dishes but this one is light enough for me to lift from hob to oven without much effort or pain. The handles and lid knob get hot but the use of oven gloves solves the problem. Tin foil makes a tighter seal of the lid if necessary. I am very pleased with this casserole dish.
I bought this to replace my Le Creuset casserole, which I was struggling to lift out of a hot oven and which I was finding difficult to handle even when empty. I'm delighted. It's weight is negligible and it's a doddle to clean. Now I see there's a smaller size, I'm off to buy one of those too.
