I also own two lodge Dutch ovens. 5 and 7 quart. Had the 5 qt for over a decade. It works great and no chips.

I'll never understand the dumbasses that thumbs down legitimate questions.

Anyways, I've this and Le Creuset of similar volume (but wider and lower). The Le Creuset is much lighter and the ceramic is slightly easier to clean. Now is it worth the extra $200? That's up to you. They come in very nice colors but we use both our dutch ovens equally and neither does a better job doing the actual purpose of the cookware which is cooking.

What's the difference between this and the $79 (down from $133) Lodge 6 qt enameled cast iron dutch oven on Amazon?

I went through at least a half dozen standard coarse 40 grit sandpaper and it took probably 20 minutes of sanding. I can't remember for sure. Time to dig out an N95 mask too, you don't want to breathe the dust.
I did the same with a cheapie lodge i bought recently... it worked great, and the seasoning really coming into its own. I used to hate cast iron cause such a pain to clean but this one is getting pretty slick

You're saying these are the ones that are still made in China? I bought one a couple years ago. My wife was recently cleaning with steel wool and scraped off the enamel some. Now she doesn't feel comfortable using it
Yes, these old style Lodge were Chinese made. But they're still really good pots.

Don't use steel wool on enameled cast iron, its too rough. Course salt & water, or use a stiff nylon brush or nylon pad, which I use. Also never pour cold water on hot enamel, its a shock to the material which will cause popping or chipping. These require more delicate cleaning to protest the porcelain & its surface.

To re-season my pan, I use the butane torch hack (the kind that uses those cheap butane fuel cans https://www.amazon.com/Legendary-...r=8-5&th=1 ). It works very well indoors. I've tried the typical oven methods and outdoors with a grill, but I like having a shortcut. Scrub out cast iron using hot water and a little soap if necessary. Dry the pan on the stove with the burner on high. As soon as the surface is dry, shmear a very thin coat of oil over the surface. As soon as it starts smoking (don't wait till it's billowing) take a butane torch and simultaneously dry off the oil with the burner on. You can see when it's done as it will no longer look wet. If it starts smoking too much, just cut off the burner underneath and continue using the torch until the oil has been seared on. It keeps the surface oil from going rancid if you don't use the pan for a while. I've read all the Reddit comments poo-pooing this method, they're ignorant, this works.

Affordable alternative to a Le Creuset?
Le Creuset uses a specialized alloy that provides unmatched heat distribution. If you cook a lot and appreciate high performance cookware, Le Creuset is the way to go. The Chinese cast iron used in Lodge cookware can be kind of hit or miss with regards to even heat distribution. For most people it probably isn't a big deal, but don't assume that just because something looks like Le Creuset that it will perform the same way.

I seasoned several cast iron dutch ovens and skillets in my Pit Boss smoker. 450 degrees for 1 hour using avocado oil. Oil smell is outside instead of in the house.

Bon Ami and Bar Keeper's Friend are also great for cleaning enameled cookware. They have just enough abrasive to clean and remove stains without damaging the enamel. Been using them for ages and have never had a problem with enamel coming off. Salt works too, but then you have to wash again with detergent to get any remaining greasy stuff out. The other products are one step and done.

I own Le Creuset and it chipped pretty fast. Where my lodge I had for over a decade never chipped.
From what I understand they will warranty it and send you a new one

Amazon is a 6 qt & oven rated up to 400, sloped sides. Walmart is a 5.5 qt rated upto 500, straight sides. Two different designs. Both are made in China.

Le Creuset won't warrant chipped if it looks as if it was abused. They only warrant normal wear and tear. All porcelain will chip, no matter who made it, if it was banged around.

FYI I saw this dutch oven for sale in store at $19! I went to buy one however the price wouldn't ring up and I was advised to wait in the customer service line. I didn't have time to wait and decided to come back the next day. They were all sold out...
