Overmont Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven - 7QT Pot with Lid Cookbook & Cotton Potholders - Heavy-Duty Cookware for Braising, Stews, Roasting, Bread Baking blue

I read and watched a fair number of Dutch oven reviews before buying this one. The honest reviewers admit that most of them perform about the same regardless of price! The only differentiators are weight, handle design, and quality of the enamel. Weight matters as the more iron in the pot the better it retains and distributes the heat. Oddly, some of the most expensive ones $$$$ are not even on the heavy side.Amazon threw me a coupon on this unit making it to inexpensive not to try out. The risk of "Cheap" of course is that it turns out to be a poorly made Chinese product delivered with dents or chips. That is NOT the case here. At this price level I'm sure it's manufactured in China, but the quality is Top Drawer! It was packaged with care, came with a few cute and creative accessories, and really reflects well on the brand.It absolutely beautiful inside and out. I bought the 7qt model and it's huge and heavy and I love it. I've cooked in it twice now and gave the interior enamel a workout with some seriously baked-on acidic foods. But it cleaned up with little effort... looks good as new. Great purchase. Do not hesitate and do not pay for a $$$$ brand!

Can't say anything negative. Bought this Dutch oven on sale and is worth every penny. Food cooks well and it keeps temperature even. Made stews and chili that always came out perfect. Have not tried baking bread in it yet, but I am pretty sure it will not disappoint. I love the light pink color and I actually can't tell a difference to the pricier name brands available on the market. It is a versatile cooking pot that is easy to clean and one of my favorite pots in the kitchen.

This is literally the same quality as Le Creuset but a fraction of the price. Not only is the pot beautiful, but it’s completely functional. Made my first ever successful sourdough loaf in it and simply just wiped out the inside with a micro sponge. Cleaned perfectly without any effort. My loaf is evenly browned. A 5.5qt is very manageable for a 2-3 person household. It’s smaller than I expected but adequately sized for my purpose. If you want to do larger stock pot meals or larger loaves, I’d get a quart bigger. No regrets at all opting for this one over a Le Creuset.No one is buying this for the mitts. I immediately threw them away. They weren’t well made or well insulated.

Excellent quality! I love this cast iron pot. The color is beautiful and the pot is very heavy and well made. It’s almost a statement piece in my kitchen it’s so pretty. Love cooking AND serving in it!

07/20/2025 Updated Review:I returned this for a refund through Amazon, however I was contacted by the company directly as well. They asked if they could send me a brand new dutch oven (completely free!), and still allow me to keep my refund, due to the fact that they wanted me to be a satisfied customer. Wow!I received the new one today, and it was in PRISTINE condition. It was boxed totally different than the first; very well packed in an original Overmont box, the lid had its own box, and it came with some other items that were not included in the first box. With that being said, I have to wonder if I was actually sent a dutch oven that someone else had previously returned to Amazon the first time. This new one (that looks like it was sent directly from Louisiana and not Amazon) was perfect and beautiful!I have to give Kudos to the company for doing this; as a customer, it makes all the difference to our future purchases, and I will say that I would do business with Overmont again in the future. I am updating my review to 5 stars, because they really went over and beyond to make sure their customer was taken care of. If anything changes, I'll come back to update this review again.Original Review:So disappointed when I opened this today. I had purchased it for baking my sourdough breads in, but unfortunately it had chips in the porcelain, both inside and out. The lid was very bad, all the way around, and there were chips on the inside as well. I probably could have lived with the lid chips on the outside, but will not be using a pot that is chipped on the inside from the get-go. Doesn't scream quality item to me. I will be returning this. Very sad! :(

Great quality and perfect size. Heavyweight, not light and cheap. Great for baking bread and roasting meats.

I just received this Overmont Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven - 4.5QT Pot with Lid (pumpkin color). It was well packaged, with substantial packing material to protect it. Upon inspection, I found no chips, pinholes or any other defects in the enamel in either pot or lid. It also came with a host of goodies as described in the listing - recipe book, care instructions, magic sponge, silicone coaster and two small decorated pot holders. I immediately cooked a one pot meal, and this dutch oven did a grand job of cooking it. Clean up was a breeze, as everything easily wiped off, even the dried on bits. I didn't notice any residual baking stains on it, and it looks as clean as it did when I took it out of the package.So far I'm thrilled with this Overmont Dutch Oven. Great price, quality and looks.

I only use ceramic cast iron for cooking. I have Le Creuset that cost 5X as much. After, using often for months, no issues with chipping. Beautiful color! Great price!
