Great high quality product! Ridiculous and shameful waste of packaging in the delivery - it's a product in a box, just send the box (wrapped in an extra layer of paper maybe if there's concern for edge scuffing?) - absolutely no need for another massive box and huge amount of paper packing. Just because the materials are recyclable does not stop it from being a waste of resources. At the very least when people make purchases maybe give them the option for planet-friendly packaging rather than this excess?

perfect every time!This braiser has become my all time great piece of equipment along with all my other staub items. This braiser Never fails to produce wonderful meals and cleans up like a gem! I start using it on the stove top and finish in my oven on my slo cooker mode and nothing but great results. So easy to clean up and no complaints! Looks good as a decorative piece as well on the gas stove top!

Love My Staubs!I love cooking with my Staub collection of black cast iron ‘pots and pans.’ All beautiful and functional, all purchased at Cook Culture over the past several years. My two cocottes—one large oval, one medium round—each came with a magnetic wood hot pad, perfect for oven to table. In fact, each of my Staub pieces double as beautiful serving vessels: 10" Braiser, 8"x12" Roaster, 4 qt. Round Oven, 10" Double-handle Fry Pan, and Oval Cocotte. So wonderfully crafted and versatile. I strongly recommend Staub!

Chrustmas Gift

This braiser has been used several times a week since Christmas. It is a beautiful pot, the color very deep. The Staub quality very evident not only in appearance & weight but also in its construction. Food prepared within is never dry but moist and flavorful. The lid is unique & instrumental for braising & making food delicious.

Fantastic Braiser

This Braiser is fantastic. It's a very good size and the colour is beautiful. I look forward to many meals cooked in this pot especially now that fall is coming. This is my second Staub purchase and I far prefer them to my Le Cruset. I'll also say communication and shipping with Chef Supplies was excellent. I would order again.

For versatile use!

28cm Braiser is the perfect size for various style of cooking, suitable not only for displaying dishes but also for daily use such as stir-frying, pot cooking, stewing, griling and oven cooking. If you still don't have any products from Staub I would recommend starting with this product instead of the round cocotte :)

I absolutely love my 3.8L

I absolutely love my 3.8L Blue Chiestera Braiser Pan. It's deep rounded sides are perfect for making Stroganoff and spaghetti dishes. It's a great size for my hubby and I and to have left overs for our lunches. I was holding off getting one but Consiglio's Kitchen has some of the best prices. Thank you!

Staub 4 QT Braiser Cherry Red

Love this Staub braiser! It’s so functional, easily cleans up in a snap and looks lovely sitting on my range. The perfect pan for risotto and even bok choy. Looking forward to preparing my Osso buco and much more.

Well made and perfect size

Received mine two weeks ago and couldn’t be more pleased. This is an excellent buy for this brasier. There are just two of us and the 2.5 qt is perfect. It cooks so well at lower temperatures and retains heat longer than my stainless steel pans.. Delivery was also quick.

Worth the money

I researched for a good everyday Dutch oven. This was on sale. It’s the perfect size for everyday cooking for 4 people. I own a larger one but it’s to heavy to lug out each day. This is not as heavy as what pp say. It’s easy to clean and cooks well. Keeps food moist while you cook because it has a special lid. The colour is awesome. You pay for what you get. This is an item that cost a lot at first but will last a long time. The cheap pans that cost under $100 after a year or two it ends up in the garbage. The quality of this will last me a life time. The older one I have is about 10 yrs old and still looks like new.
