Review: Good, solid casserole dish. - Really heavy casserole dish and perfect for smaller stews etc for two people. Love the colour and the hotpot cooked in it was perfect. Turn the temperature of the oven down as the pot gets very hot and holds the heat so more economical cooking too. Perfect and delighted with this dish.
Review: Excellent product and very good value for money. - I bought this mainly for breadmaking. My task to keep me sane during the past year of having to “shield” during lockdown. I am delighted that I did. An excellent product which does everything I hoped. I have only used it once for a beef casserole to portion and freeze, and it performed as expected. Easy to clean - I fill it with hot water with Oxyclean and Fairy liquid afternuse and let it sit for an hour or so and it cleans beautifully. The cream lining makes it easy to spot the areas which need a bit of an extra scrub. Now to the one slight drawback - it IS heavy. However, anything cast iron and with those dimensions, was always going to be heavy. Definitely no reason to withhold a star in the rating. I am 77 with back problems and I can still handle it safely for the time being. I am actually intending to buy the smaller version also as I think it would be a better size for cooking meat and soup dishes as I am only cooking for one now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nearly 5 star
*by P***P on 25 February 2024*

Hard to review something I have only had a couple of days and used once but views so far are:- Great for baking sourdough bread. (the reason a bought it) Yes, it's heavy but what do you expect? It is cast iron. Nice and easy to clean. Just give it a soak and it washes up easy. The only reason I deducted a star is because it arrived chipped and this was NOT down to the postage. Due to the location of the chip it is obvious this was chipped prior to manufacture packaging.
