KICHLY 2 in 1 Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Dual Purpose Lid – 4.73 litre Cast Iron Pot with 27 cm Griddle Pan – Pre-seasoned Casserole Dish with Lid, Black

I haven't used this item yet but it is heavy duty and and seems like a good quality item and the price was really good

I make 500gr flour round sourdough loaves and this is the perfect size for baking. Haven't needed to clean it as I of course use a sheet of baking paper under the dough, but wouldn't expect it to perform any different than other cast iron products as it seems high quality. Just make sure to follow instructions for cleaning and maintenance, don't just go in with soap and scrub thinking this is just like any old frying pan. If you do that it will rust. Seals the steam in really well thanks to the heavy lid, so I get great oven spring. It is also so thick that it holds the heat really well when pre-heated. The little ears on the side on both lid and bottom are great as you physically can not accidentally drop one of the parts, you drop both or nothing. Preferably nothing lol. It is VERY heavy, buyer beware, so you have to have a strong back and arms to safely lift it. Hard to comment on value for money as it also sort of depends on budget and what you could 'make do' with in terms of baking vessel, but put it this way; I am really really happy with my purchase and don't think I paid too much at all. There were other similar products that had twice and triple the price tag, but in the end does the same job.

It is pre-seasoned. It is really a deep pan. a pot with lid for oven or cook top, and the lid as a fryer. I hardly ever use any of my other pans. Quick lesson on seasoning as you go, using the pot without lid in this case. Preheat pot, remember once hot put burner down a bit, it will stay hot for ages. Add tiny amount of oil, just enough to coat the bottom and up the sides a bit, remove excess (I keep a cloth next to the cooker just for this). When the oil is up to temp. you have really already done the seasoning part. Cook/fry what ever you were cooking. For washing up, do not use soaps, soap is made to remove fat, we want to keep that layer. Instead run some warm water into it, use your dish wash sponge to clean it, it is the best nonstick you have ever had. Important, dry it well straight away, some re-season it after cooking, I haven't found a need. Mine is as black and shiny as when I first got it.

I am sure this is a very good oven, but far too heavy for me to lift empty. Not sure I could lift it if it had food in it.

A good heavy pot. Well cast and finished. The lid also makes a great griddle for cooking steaks etc.

Brilliant product free postage great price

Real iron cast but always with greasy black residual stick and IMPOSSIBLE to clean it up. Not happy to use it to cook food in it directly. May be good for baking bread with paper underneath.

Excellent pot! Not much else to say, only look after it.

Jag använder till matlagning. Fantastlks smak.

Ha sfornato anche buonissimi pane.

Used it first time last week and was surprised how quickly my Goat's meat stew was cooked. Cut my cooking time in half.

Zware Dutch Oven voor mijn desembrood. Ik leg het deeg in de deksel en dan de pan eroverheen. Dus ondersteboven bakken. Dit werkt voor mijn het beste om baneton brood te maken.
