A Le Creuset Dutch Oven Is Down to $150 Right Now (Save $90)
We rarely see this fancy French cookware priced so low.
Cookware enthusiasts know the beauty and craftsmanship that comes with any Le Creuset cookware. The downside of this heritage kitchen brand is that it costs a pretty penny -- sometimes as much as $500 for a single piece. That's why we're jumping at this 3.5-quart Le Creuset enameled cast-iron essential oven down to $150 on QVC.com. That's roughly half the normal price and about as cheap as you're bound to ever find it.
By comparison, the same 3.5-quart pot is selling for $240 on Amazon. It's available in cream for $150 on QVC and mint green or licorice black for $218.
If you're wondering how an essential oven differs from a classic Dutch oven, it's almost exactly the same in every way except with shorter and slightly sloped sides. You'll still be able to make tender roasts, sear and braise meats, cook slow Sunday sauces, stews and all the other wonderful things one can do in a Le Creuset enameled cast-iron pot. The 3.5-quart is perfect for regularly cooking for three or four, but if you've got many more mouths than that, it might be a little small. It's without a doubt my favorite piece of cookware and any home chef on your shopping list will gush over it.
