– Shallow Cast Iron Casserole with Lid – Non Stick Dutch Oven Pot, Oven Safe up to 500° F – Sturdy Ovenproof Stockpot Cookware – Enamelled Cooking Pot – Blue, 3.7-Quart, 30cm – by Nuovva

I have been using this shallow enamelled cast iron casserole for a while now and I am very happy with its overall quality and performance. The first thing to note is that this is proper cast iron. The pot is genuinely heavy, which might surprise some people, but that weight translates directly into stability, heat retention and even cooking. Once heated, it distributes heat extremely evenly across the entire surface, with no hot spots. This makes it ideal for slow cooking, braising, shallow stews, pan frying and finishing dishes in the oven. The enamel coating is smooth and well applied. Food releases easily when used correctly, and cleaning is remarkably simple for cast iron. Most of the time, warm water and a soft sponge are sufficient. Nothing has stained or stuck permanently so far. I have used it both on the hob and in the oven, and it performs reliably in both settings. The lid fits well, helping to retain moisture and heat, which is especially useful for casseroles and slow cooked dishes. Design wise, the pot looks very nice and solid, and the green enamel finish is attractive without being overly flashy. It feels sturdy and durable, and the handles are well sized for a secure grip, although due to the weight, lifting with two hands is definitely recommended. Pros: • Excellent and even heat distribution • Very good heat retention • Extremely good value for money for enamelled cast iron • Easy to clean compared to many other cast iron pots • Suitable for hob and oven use Cons: • Quite heavy, as expected with cast iron Overall, this casserole offers outstanding performance for its price point. It compares very well with much more expensive brands while doing exactly what good cast iron cookware should do. I would confidently recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, versatile and affordable cast iron casserole.

I have Prime. Ordered Saturday, arrived Sunday, delivered by Amazon. Faultless. Initial impressions were very good. I chose the dark blue 32 cm shallow casserole, and the blue enamelling is quite striking. Having eventually removed the casserole from the packaging - it is very well protected - I gave it a quick wash using a nylon scrubby then immediately set about putting my new cookware to work to make a Lancashire hotpot. I have owned Le Creuset ironware for well over forty years - from the time before it became so ridiculously over priced - and my new casserole more than holds its own when compared alongside in looks. The enamelling seems to be of an equivalent standard, the thickness and weight of the ironware seems to be entirely comparable. Considering the price differential between the two brands, these impressions lead to a very considerable weighting in favour of the Nuovva product. Very impressed. I was slightly surprised to read that the casserole did not need seasoning, but I took the manufacturer at their word. I can now confirm that seasoning is not necessary. Very impressed. Using the casserole on my induction hob, I browned the meat and vegetables in a little dripping, then combined all the ingredients, put the sliced potatoes on the top and transferred the whole thing directly to the top oven. A few hours later, I sat down to a very evenly cooked meal. The casserole kept the food warm long enough for me to return for a second helping of cholesterol laden comfort food. Very impressed. Washing up was very easy, again using a nylon scrubby, the casserole came up clean with very little effort. Very impressed. Two things of which a potential buyer should be aware: 1. Size: This casserole has a large footprint, and the excellently designed handles make it quite a big piece of kitchen-ware. You will need a standard 60cm outside width oven to use this, anything smaller simply will not accommodate. 2. Weight: This is a large piece of cast iron, and as such is fairly hefty in nature. For those people who have not used cast iron cookware before, this will mean that the weight may come as a bit of a surprise. I by no means share the physique of Arnold Schwarzenegger, but I managed to lift it, whilst containing around five or six pounds of food very easily, thanks to the well designed handles. In summary, this casserole is a large, heavy, piece of cast iron cookware, giving every impression of having been manufactured to a very high standard. The enamelling is beautifully executed and the design is very attractive. Food cooks evenly inside of it, and the washing up process is simple. Obviously, I have not been able to test longevity, but all the indications are that this item will continue to be used by whomever buys it from the house clearance sale long after I have croaked. Worth every penny. 100% recommendation.

Love this product. Bought it to move away from nonstick coated pots and pans and it's been great! I've cooked eith it so many times and love how versatile it is. You can use it on the stovetop, but also in the oven. The lid and design traps heat very well and makes the most tender and comforting meals! Very good quality and I love the colour too. I have bought a second one because I love it so much! No signs of rust, as long as you clean and dry it well, I don't forsee that to be an issue.

I have been looking for an Iron cast Casserole dish for quite a long time. Heading into the dizzy heights of "Le French option" was just too expensive and aluminium styles dent all too easily. We used to have a bog standard one from Sainsbury's but the enamel came off. We love a decent Pan Haggarty from The Hairy Bikers books and there's no better way to cook this than in one of these casserole dishes. Just gorgeous! Pictures show what the first Pan Haggarty looked like, the day after we purchased the dish. A truly great addition to the kitchen cooking pots and pans!

Not quite the same colour as in the picture, more of a bottle green, but functionally very good. There's a tendency for some food to catch in the middle of the pan, but after soaking, it comes right off using a washing up brush and soft cloth. We are only a family of 3, but I use it for batch-cooking or it makes a good-sized frying pan with its flat bottom.

Loved the colour and the fact that the inside is cream and not black. Used twice already. Easy to clean, just soak the pan in soapy hot water and leave for an hour or so and the residue just lifts off and doesn't leave marks. Yes it's a bit heavy but it's sturdy and it looks nice and can be used in the oven and stove top, can go from oven to table and is nice and large. I'm sure a spatchcock chicken will fit nicely with some veg piled on top. Well packaged and great price compared to high street brands. Very pleased with purchase.

I love this pot. It's a beautiful blue colour. It is durable and weighs in at 17 lbs roughly. Great buy.

Ich liebe diese Pfanne! Ich bin von beschichteter Pfanne umgestiegen auf diese emaillierte Gusseisenpfanne (sowie eine Edelstahlpfanne und eine gusseiserne) und ich bereue nichts. Grund für den Umstieg war eine verzkratzte beschichtete Pfanne, das Material hing in Fäden und konnte so ins Essen eindringen. Säurehaltige Gerichte werden in der Pfanne / Schmortopf zubereitet und reichen für 4 Portionen. Vom Gewicht her natürlich etwas unhandlich aber man kommt zurecht und Gewichttraining soll man ja sowieso machen ;) Aufpassen sollte man wirklich mit dem unbeschichteten Rand, auch den Deckel nicht umgekehrt nach dem Kochen liegen lassen, es kann zu Korrosion kommen! Liegt einfach in der Natur des Materials. Preislich top, dafür brauche ich keine Markentöpfe anschaffen wenn dieser hier die gleichen Anforderungen erfüllt. Die Farbe ist auch wunderschön und ein echter Hingucker

The enamel inside the pan is chipped and cracked thus unsuitable for cooking. Plus extérieure of the pan the enamel is completely broken and chipped this will cause rust.

Visivamente bella Ma non è come immaginavo Il cibo si attacca subito, nonostante messo olio abbondante La restituiró
