Good quality.

Le Creuset 8 Quart Stockpot $124.63 I felt it was advertised erroneously since they talk about their enameled pots as proudly manufactured in France. So I was fairly disappointed that it was instead made in Thailand. If that was made clear on the website, I might have not paid that high of a price for the product. While their heavier cookware is assumedly made in France, it is more than thrice the price. But I never considered looking online for cookware made in Thailand. But if you do, there are quite a number of choices for a third less price! So far the pot performs (boiling water) without issues although they give you a few cautious warnings how to not cause the pot harm. Before recent induction requirements, I used my Stainless Steel and aluminum bottom Farberware for 40 years without any warning. I will not buy additional enameled cookware from LeCreuset if I cannot splurge on the heavyweight versions. If it had turned out to be Made in Ghina, it would have been immediately returned. I would not recommend this pot to anyone since for the price I could have bought several of another brand...that was not made in France either!!

I have a full set of La Creuset set cookware from a braiser, two dutch ovens, different sized pots and the big skillet. So far everything but the skillet is awesome to cook with and clean after. The skillet is a whole different story. It's not enamel coated like the rest of the cookware. I've followed every direction given, called customer service who told us to follow the use and care instructions but nothing matters. Everything sticks no matter what we do. Today I made 12 scrambled eggs and I'm having a heck of a time getting it clean. If I could I'd take this back and use the braiser as a skillet. This thing is fairly useless.

Until recently, I would have been a 5-star reviewer of Le Creuset, but our recent interactions with them have changed that. Several years ago, we had a beige-colored Le Creuset pot from which the enamel started coming off. Le Creuset customer support was fantastic to deal with and they replaced the pot under their warranty. Wonderful! More recently, however, the enamel has started coming off our 12" beige skillet. (Interestingly, both of our beige-colored items suffered similar issues.) We contacted customer support, but the experience this time has been quite different. They offered to replace the skillet with their Cassadou pot, which is smaller and deeper. We pointed out to them that we like the shallower, wider skillet we have and asked if we could get the braiser instead. The braiser would be more in line with what we use our skillet for, but they don't seem interested. They seem more focused on the replacement having a handle than on how we use our current skillet. We'd be open to discussing paying any price difference, but the pot is what they have decided they are sending us, and they are only interested in ascertaining our color preference. So, be aware that if Le Creuset no longer makes an item you have a problem with, you'll likely get what they decide you get. It appears that why you bought your item in the first place is of no interest to them. Le Creuset don't make the skillet anymore, so without any regard for why we bought the larger, shallower skillet in the first place, they are sending us a pot. We bought a skillet, we're getting a pot. Case closed. Not wonderful. Edit 5/31: Le Creuset responded to my post (see below) confirming that they arbitrarily decide what they will replace an item with if it's discontinued. I wonder how they'd feel if they bought a pair of hiking boots and the manufacturer decided to replace them with stilettos under their warranty. Yep, it makes about that much sense. I'll no longer be a Le Creuset customer.

I bought the tea mugs and the 350ml mugs of le creuset from a well known shop in South Africa. However, on the tea mugs it says "Made in China". Only on the 350ml mugs are the customary logo printed underneath. Will they still be the original product?

Bought a bakeware from Williams Sonoma it works well My complaint is the piece was made in China. Quite frankly I could buy something much cheaper i.e.,Aldi for 14.99 So disappointed in le creuset and reading these reviews I’ll just keep it but it will be my last purchase from le creuset

Ich habe den wunderschönen Kessel in Türkis gekauft und auch behalten weil er eben so schön ist und perfekt auf mein schönes neues Induktionsfeld passt. Die 3 Sterne vergebe ich für die Optik und das Pfeifen. Ansonsten hat die Qualität nicht das Niveau, dass man von den tollen Pfannen von le Creuset gewohnt ist. Die Machart des Deckel führt dazu, das immer, selbst bei kaltem Kessel Wasser am Deckel hängt welches beim Öffnen am Kessel runterläuft, denn Öffnen kann man den Kessel auch nicht vollständig kontrolliert, da man einen nicht ganz kleinen Widerstand dabei überwinden muss (konstruktionsbedingt). Ferner schliesst der Deckel auch nicht richtig ab, so dass man immer schnell sein muss wenn es pfeift, weil sonst das ganze Kochfeld eingesprüht wird. Auch aus der Pfeife tritt Wasser aus und wird versprüht, es ist wirklich sehr enttäuschend, der Kessel ist sehr teuer um Vergleich zu Produkten anderer namhafter Hersteller. Er dürfte nicht mehr als 40 € kosten. Wir haben im Wohnmabil einen Alu Pfeiffkessel aus dem Campingbedarf der ca 25 € gekostet hat und mehr leistet. Leider muss ich nachtragen, dass sich jetzt auch noch gezeigt, hat, dass das Emaille an der Stelle wo die Gießtülle an den Rumpf geschweißt ist kaputt ist, und an dieser Stelle Kalk ausblüht der eigentlich nur von innen kommen kann, so das ich jetzt auch noch annehmen muss, dass der Kessel auch noch undicht ist. Leider finde ich meine Quittung nicht, sonst würde ich den Kessel jetzt reklamieren, er ist gerade mal 4 Wochen in Betrieb, jetzt würde ich echt nur noch 1 Stern für die Optik geben. Ich möchte ergänzen, dass ich die Quittung damals doch noch gefunden habe und den Kessel zurück geben konnte, wurde voll erstattet

I bought a set of these pans and pots years ago for Christmas. Worst purchase ever. Everything sticks like glue. DO NOT BUY!! The company reached out. One pan was the real culprit and they are willing to replace. I am willing to give it another try. The company reached out and replaced the pan for free. So far so good!!
