Comments about Staub 11026-76 La Cocotte 5 Quart Round French Oven (Blue):
I am very impressed with this product. It's simply the best thing I have in my kitchen now. I cook many different type of dishes from stew to stir fried dishes. This pot retains heat so well that I don't have to wait for it to reheat after I put ingredients in for very long. It's a great tool to make soup, sauce, stew, and etc. that requires high even heat. As expected, handles get quite hot so use gloves or pot holders when touching them.
