Overview

Le Creuset makes this braiser with a wide base for searing in one layer and a tempered glass lid that circulates steam. The all-over ceramic coating is made without PFAS and wipes clean.

More room than the smaller braiser in the line means family-size portions, and the cooking shape stays broad and shallow. Cleanup is simple per the listing, but ratings for cooktops and ovens are not given.

Who it's for

Cooks preparing weeknight stews, braised meat and steamed vegetables for several people will use the added room. Solo cooks or those wanting tall sides for soup should consider other shapes.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Larger capacity than the smaller braiser
  • PFAS-free ceramic coating
  • Tempered glass lid included
  • Dishwasher safe per seller text
Cons
  • Induction rating not listed
  • Oven limit not listed
  • Heavier to lift when full
  • Shallow sides for soups

Performance notes

Surface area is the key: a wide base gives each piece room to brown, and the lid returns condensed steam to the dish. Heat spreads across the aluminum evenly, which reduces hot spots on the burner. The ceramic coating needs little oil to release food.
