Detail
Summary
Staub's innovative enamel coating takes cast-iron cooking to the next level with improved performance, style and durability. This French oven is perfect for cooking grains and other sumptuous sides. The round bottom and textured lid are similar in design to the traditional Japanese cast-iron tool for cooking rice – both circulate and distribute moisture for fluffy, airy and delicious results. The oven is also great for simmering jams, soups and stews.
- Heavy enameled cast iron transfers and retains heat evenly.
- Multicoat enameling creates a glossy, vibrantly colored "majolique" finish that resembles fine ceramics.
- Resistant to rust, chipping and cracking, the coating requires no additional seasoning like other cast-iron pieces.
- Specially formulated black matte interior enamel contains traces of quartz, providing additional heat resistance and a rougher surface, which results in better browning.
- Small bumps on interior surface of lid evenly distribute condensation.
- Nickel-plated brass knob.
- Made in France.

Nice Pot

Nice size pot, will be very versatile. I was surprised, though, that an item at this price point wouldn’t have a color match between the lid and pot. The lid has more blue, the pot more yellow. Hopefully the difference isn’t something to do with how the finish performs.

Beautiful and efficient...a joy to use!

My new favorite pan in our kitchen! It cooks grains, potatoes, beans, pasta and stews with an even temperature. This dependable consistency creates perfect dishes every time. The weight of this pan is less than most of the other Staub cast iron. Very easy to use and clean. An excellent investment for your kitchen!

Perfect size.

I was looking for a smaller Dutch Oven that I could cook a smaller amount of beans or maybe a soup pot for 2 or 3 people and this fit the bill perfectly. It is quite good looking too.

My favorite pot!

It’s a great size - works for almost any cooking purpose. It’s a nice weight, not too heavy like other cast irons. And it is very cute!

Excellent Product, Lousy Customer Service

I love the beautiful Staub Demi French Oven; however, I am EXTREMELY unhappy with Williams Sonoma. I received email order CONFIRMATION of the sale price and free shipping. Later, I heard from PayPal that Williams Sonoma, with absolutely NO notification to me, had raised the price by $20! I was incensed and promptly wrote to the listed customer service email. The response I received was that they no longer did email customer service and there was a telephone number I could call. Sorry folks. Not gonna do it. I use email customer service when needed because I refuse to spend endless time on hold waiting to speak to someone. It is a terrible business practice to charge an additional $20 for an item with ABSOLUTELY NO EXPLANATION from the vendor. This was a gift, ordered for a friend who doesn't 'do' online ordering. I'm DONE with Williams Sonoma, and I will recommend against their company whenever possible.

My adorable soup pot

I am so glad I got this pot! I know people use it as a rice pot, but I've been using it as a soup pot. Perfect size for 2 people with some left over..

Great Pot

It's really great for it's size. I'm currently going through and replacing all of my nonstick cookware piece by piece and this pot is wonderful so far. It has replaced my medium pot. Which is really the one that gets the most use during the week. You're not going to be making a big pot of chicken stock in this, but it's perfect for making rice and pasta.
