I snagged this up on a “deal of the day” last week and boy am I glad I did. I’ve used standard cast iron for several years and love how it cooks. But the care and upkeep is a bit inconvenient. So, I’ve been wanting to buy some enameled cast iron but couldn’t afford the good quality ones. Finally I got some. I can’t say enough how much I love cooking in this. Totally non stick and so easy to clean. Supposedly these are dishwasher safe but I hand washed it just in case. But a quick wipe down with a soapy sponge and it was goid as new. I’ve always liked cuisenart products and their cast iron doesn’t disappoint.

WOW! I found this on sale so, despite a few negative reviews regarding chips in the enamel, I decided to take a chance. Mine was so well packaged, though, I can’t imagine how it could have arrived damaged.
Because of reports of heavy metal toxicity and some illnesses in our family, I disposed of all of my stainless steel cookware 😕 and switched over to Le Creuset. EXPENSIVE!!!!! I had tried some of the enamel coated aluminum-based Cuisinart cookware and had a very bad experience. HOWEVER, this has become my new favorite piece for a fraction of the cost of Le Creuset! Great for fried chicken, even spaghetti sauce… the size and shape make it super versatile.
Mine arrived in mint condition, and cooks like a dream. It’s like cooking in my mother’s old cast iron frying pan she kept so well seasoned for 35 years right out of the box!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Cuisinart offers a great pan at a great value. Sure you could hold it up to ward off .22 caliber rounds and you probably need two hands to handle it. You also don’t want to drop it on a glass cooktop or on your floor tile. That said, it can handle 10-12 large chicken thighs, sauces, or 2-3 steaks. It’s not as finicky as pure cast iron and it’s lower maintenance. I recently had two well-treated and properly used Le Creuset items shatter while cooking. This won’t. Great value for the money.

I have used this pan for cooking everything from fish, pork chops, steaks to ethnic foods (Indian cuisine, Mexican and Asian cuisine etc.) to deep frying vegetables with a beer batter. It performs flawlessly every time, the heat distribution was easy to control and the foods were cooked better than in other pans due to the ease of maintaining proper temperature. It also cleans up easily and after a lot of use still looks like it just came out of the box new. If you like really heavy pans you will LOVE this one. I use wooden and silicone utensils without fear of scratching the bottom. I have other Cuisinart pans and they work just as well. I am hooked.

The color was called “light blue”, but really is almost a mint green.
Also, it is extremely heavy even empty, without the lid.

Bought this to match my Dutch oven. The lid chipped the 3rd time I used it just putting in the sink. I hope my Dutch oven doesn’t chip as easily.

Love the color and the size. Using as my everyday pan now, very good size and we are a family of 6 people so it is just deep enough!

I was excited to use my new pan but when I was washing it before the first use per instructions I noticed some damage to the bottom of the pan. Very disappointing because this pan was marketed as new. Yet you can tell this item was opened and repackaged before being sent to me. Seems like it was purchased and returned then sent to me.
