Lodge 6 Quart Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Lid

You don't have to shell out hundreds to get a beautiful enameled cast-iron Dutch oven anymore, folks. Lodge has brought their premium quality cast iron to the masses with a budget-friendly price on a kitchen staple. Take it from this rave review: "I have purchased the Lodge 6qt round Dutch oven FIVE times, the 7qt oval Dutch oven once, AND the 3.25qt braiser (all in the white color) several times for myself and for gifts (not to mention the countless skillets purchased to go with the Dutch ovens/braisers, lol). As someone who was a huge Le Creuset fan, you can't beat the price of the Lodge. In my experience, they have both held up about the same. I use both brands simultaneously and have enjoyed getting to give the Lodge brand as gifts. They are something that, if taken care of, will last a lifetime. The Oyster White color is my favorite - it's not a true white, but is a very nice neutral color and will coordinate with pretty much anything."
