Staub enameled cast iron cookware is the top choice for chefs and home cooks alike. Rooted in French culinary heritage, Staub's renowned cocottes are timeless pieces, perfect for casual meals or sumptuous suppers. The Essential French Oven with Chistera lid is the latest star in the cast iron collection. Like Staub's signature flat lid, the domed Chistera lid has excellent self-basting properties. Usually, a convex lid causes condensation to fall to the sides. The innovative, Chistera drop-structure lid solves this problem by putting a twist on traditional spikes. Moisture cascades from the whole lid. This continuous basting guarantees delectable roast chicken and braised short ribs. What inspired this original design? Basque pelota players use wicker basket chisteras to scoop up balls and hurl them quickly. Under Staub's new lids, the chistera-shaped curves gather condensation to shower moisture upon the delicious dish that simmers inside.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the classic color. This is my 2nd purchase of Staub. I chose this one over coccote this time. I find the bottom shape easier to stir into. So happy with this purchase knowing that I can hand this down to my daughter and possibly last a lifetime.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You basically can go from stove top to oven and not have to use aluminum foil it basts the food beautifully enhancing the flavor it is a one pot meal. It is a beautiful piece of cookware
I was lucky to score one in a sale. It supposedly had minor imperfections. I didn't see any but promptly put a chip on it when it slipped from my hands in the sink. Oh, well. It is still drop dead gorgeous, the perfect size for me and I love cooking with it.
Bought it a month ago and been using it for cooking soups, mussels, pasta sauce. It's amazing! It keeps the heat inside and seems like cooking is faster than usual. Of course, it's beautiful in my stove too.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best oven ever. I love it. Non stick so very easy to cook risotto or French brioche for exemple! Recommend!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In love with the French oven. Just like what my mom used to use. Feels like home. One of our favorite gifts from our registry.
This French Oven is one of my most used pots in the kitchen, almost daily. Cleans easily, higher ends prevent splashes when frying meats
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this pot and have been wanting it for awhile. I love the weight but frustrated the lid has a yellow spot and inside looks to hAve white splatter paint.
White is only available in the USA I got it shipped to the UK even though I can see France from the beach!! Terrible quality white overspray on the black coating inside I thought it was dust. It wasn't. The white enamel under the handles is patchy and the black metal of the pan shows through and looks cheap. I don't like leaving bad reviews but for the cost it's unacceptable. Waiting to here from customer services in USA and Europe. We live in a global market place why do colours have to be unavailable in Europe when they are made there. Just senseless!!! This has put me off making further purchases.
The Zwilling website says "This product may have minor visual imperfections, though this will not affect the product's performance. This may include discoloration, blemishes, or chips that have been enameled over." The item I received had larger than pea sized chip right on the edge of the grenadine oven which had been enameled over to highlight the chipped area as cherry red. The lid was scratched right under the name "Staub". Yes the oven is useable but 90% of the value of this product is using it on the table to serve. Now all my guests can see these "minor imperfections".
