Sent an email from their webform, and got an automated respnose. No follow up a week later. Next, my wife tried calling their customer service line, and sat on hold for over 30 minutes before she had to hang up to deal with children. I tried calling their customer service line a few days later and sat on hold for 1.5 hours before it disconnected me.
All told, we've spent over 4 hours on hold and never spoken to a human, and they don't respond to emails.
Naturally, I tried getting their attention on their Instagram and Facebook posts and they ignore it. Other people do it to, and have the same or similar issues. Either they can't get ahold of customer service, or they already sent a pot in to be replaced and haven't heard anything back in months while Le Creuset holds both their pot and the money.
Now I know some of you will say it's COVID-19-related, but there's no excuse to be pimping your products on social media and having sales while ignoring existing customers. Buy a Lodge, or a Stauber, or a Cuisinart. Hell, buy something on *Bang*good*, and you're probably better off.
Just my 2 cents.
The 7.5 qt size is now discontinued in their regular sales (they now only offer 4.5 qt and smaller), so once this sells out during the factory 2 table sale, you'll only be able to get it on eBay.
For a 7.5 qt enameled Dutch Oven made in France, you'll have a hard time finding a lower price than this. A few weeks ago, Williams-Sonoma had store brand Dutch Ovens of the same size that were made by Staub (also made in France) for around $125, but those sold out quickly. The one downside of those was that the W&S brand (for whatever) were a good deal heavier than the name brand Staubs, but they were quite a good deal.
In previous years, Costco also sold Kirkland branded enameled Dutch Oven at made in China like prices ($70-$120) that were also made in France. But they were very limited runs that haven't been brought back again. The only other way to get this stuff for cheap is Cragislist, Letgo, Offerup or to get lucky at a place like Burlington Coat Factory or Home Goods.
Keep in mind this thing will hold it's value, even after years of use. Put it up for sale on CL in a few years and you'll easily get $150 for it.

How about save $120 and get a Lodge Double Dutch Oven.
