Le Creuset Kitchenware

We have owned and regularly used our Le Creuset cast iron shallow casserole for almost 40 years and found it durable and fantastic to use. Mostly it… Read more

was used on a gas cooktop or in the oven. Wonderful! Unfortunately we recently changed to an induction cooktop and, before it was even hot enough to start browning dumplings in avery small amount of oil, the enamel started popping off. It looked at first like I had spilt salt all over the cooktop until I realised that it was the enamel coming off. It has been so disappointing to loose this beautiful pot after so many years of good used. I strongly suggest that these pots not be used on induction cooktops, even at low to medium temperatures. Perhaps the enamel had warn thin over time but we will never know.

Worst product amd customer service – MIA customer service DO NOT BUY this product handle snapped off frypan. terrible company will be escalating to consumer affairs,

Was great for 5 years – Just non-stick gradually started to lose its non-stick quality in the middle - making French omelettes very hard. It was the only thing I use this… Read more

pan for and was now getting less stick with carbon steel, so this pan was non longer used at all.

Reading around, it seems to be the case that quality non-sticks from all manufacturers do start to lose their effectiveness around this time, despite exemplary treatment (no steal, scourers, dishwashers, high heat with nothing in pan,...). No flaking or surface blemishing - the omelette just wouldn't slide like it used to. It's really the only reason you'd tolerate non-stick given the extra precautions it requires.

Fortunately Le Creuset honored the lifetime guarantee on it and replaced it. So rating this given an expected non-stick life of 5 years.

Great purchase – I bought a set of 4 colours from city sydney store, near townhall. The mini cocette is good for making eggs and bacon with a small piece of bread.… Read more

Place into oven and I was surprised the bread came out crispy. Even when the lid was on the whole time. Well worth it, definitely a keeper. Plus they come in so many colours.

Perfect size – really good long wearing, doesn't chip at all. i have had mine for years and not discoloured. i always use them in the washing machine with no problems at all.  Show details

Nice Cups but Poorly Made – Our Le Creuset cups developed dark grey lines around the inside rim soon after purchasing them. We purchased many and so contacted Le Creuset. On… Read more

inspection, their quality control team said it was from stirring with teaspoons. This is ridiculous as such marks would then appear at the bottom of the cup not around the top inner rim. In the end, we think the marks were from the green/yellow sponge we used when washing up as the rough side seems to be scratching the inner surface, even though the tag that comes with the cup says to use a scourer on the product where necessary. Now we only use a very soft sponge to wash them and not the dishwasher. The cups are made in both China & Thailand. The fault mostly affected the cups from China. Obviously the manufacturing quality control is poor. Le Creuset replaced the cups but the same issue has returned on some cups despite the extra care. Their Le Creuset website says that their 'glazed stoneware is scratch resistant'. I expected a better quality product from Le Creuset but the brand is obviously not what it was. We would not buy Le Creuset again based on our experience and the quality control team's guesswork as to the cause of the damage.

very dissatisfied…does not last long – we paid a lot for this pan , close to $500 , maybe 8 years ago believing we were buying something long lasting …..no it is not,…has hot spots and… Read more

burns food in middle ….a cheap regular cast iron , a fraction of the price that we paid for this supposedly top quality product does a better job ….i don’t use it anymore and how stupid i feel for investing my money is supposedly a pan that would last you 25 plus years as cast iron … i hate it now as just burns food …rubbish …

Should have read the review beforehand – Similar to the other reviews, this is our 6th piece of Le Creuset, 6 months from when the warranty expired, the enamel peeled off. Sent off the… Read more

photos and email Le Creuset, they redirect us to the store where we bought it. After to and fro (emails) being told they won’t replace the stockpot claiming the damage was due to overheat, we have been using it the same way for 4 years. How do you overheat water in a stockpot???
