[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The cast iron ovens are super- heavy, but so are all cast iron ovens. Cast iron is itself heavy, but it is an amazingly even conductor of heat, which makes it much easier to cook without burning. I have some other le creuset pieces - casserole dishes, grill pans, etc. and they are fine, but nothing too special. I much prefer a naked cast iron skillet and my Pyrex casserole dishes are much easier to use. But the name brings cache, so people buy them as gifts, and I use them for company because they are prettier than other things (although not pretty enough to ever replace the functionality of a seasoned heavy cast iron skillet; I have a large one of those that I'm sure is going to send me to the sports doctor someday, but I'll use it until it does).[/quote] I have Emile Henry Flame dutch ovens. They are significantly lighter than Le Creuset (being ceramic instead of iron) and conduct heat the same way. I love love love them. [/quote]
