Any Le Creuset fans? (lemmy.one)

I inherited my grandmothers dutch oven (center), it's probably 70 years old now. Still cooks up a storm!

Then I found I lived an easy drive from an outlet store and, well, yeah, that happened. :)

I use it regularly, I used to be in the Le Creuset sub on reddit, but then reddit went to hell. :(

So... any other fans out there?

Oh man, I wish I could afford these. I always cheap out with cookware and it never lasts.

But until I can afford the real thing, does anyone have any recommendations for decent knock-offs or imitations?

America's Test Kitchen recommended Misen as an alternative for the Dutch oven: https://misen.com/products/dutch-oven

I got it, it works well, and I like it. I think we made bread in it a few times before. Small disclaimer though, we're pretty casual cooks and had a World Market brand Dutch oven for several years before this one.

Outside of that we got a knife block and their scissors but I haven't tried anything else of theirs (Misen).

They rated the Cuisinart one highly as well and it's the one they use in the demos on the most recent seasons.
