(I’m trying to adjust my shopping habits for quality, long-lasting goods from reputable brands. This isn’t some hailcorporate thing)

      2nd trick, they have an outstanding warranty. Bring it in, they swap it out.

      There’s plenty of knockoffs brands that seem to be as hardy; might but be worth the premium anymore.

        Lodge is also quite good and a fraction of the price.

        Cuisinart makes a dutch oven that’s just as good but lighter somehow.

      Not everything Le Creuset. They seem to be very similar to other kitchen brands (kitchenaid, Cuisinart, etc) where they make a few excellent products, but the rest of their lives is overpriced stuff that isn’t as good as other brands you could buy. Their Dutch ovens are good, for example, but not their French press so much.
