Es una belleza absoluta, hierro fundido, un color precioso. Una hermosa olla, vale la pena cada peso. Una maravillosa Le creuset

World Class cookware!

Being a cast iron pot, this sauce pan is highly efficient in dissipating and retaining heat. This is the larger of the two sizes (1.75 vs 2.25 qts). Overall, 2.25-quart size may appear small compared to sizes offered in the dutch oven category. However, this pan is rather large bring able to hold decent amounts of liquids. The lid is 18 cm in diameter which is about 7 inches. The picture shows its size compared to a 9-inch skillet in the background. Any larger and this pan would become more difficult to handle due to its heavy weight. The lid sits squarely on the rim without any discernible space in between which makes for a good seal. Once its heated to a point enough to boil water, the pan remains warm for further 3 hours. The bottom is also flat to a point of being able to sit on the heating surface with no rocking movement. As with other types of enameled cast iron items from this manufacturer, the inner surface is easy to clean with just soap and water. Overall, the sauce pan is highly useful and versatile in its applications. Highly recommended.

I love how this pan simmers I know that is weird but its hard to find at least for me. Its a great size for cooking long simmering sauces and small batch bread baking. The color is very interesting and that is why I chose it. Its a grey lavendery color very different from the bright colors I own. I have several of these pans and love them all. They are the easiest pans to wash after cooking and always cooks evenly. If you know the brand you know. They last my oldest pan is probably 15 years at least and still looks amazing and have it displayed on my pot tree and have used it countless times.

Love the color! Le Creuset quality is consistently good. Use this saucepan mostly for cooking veggies - can saute perfectly. Also nice for making sauces.As with all enameled cast iron, pan is really heavy and hard to hold with one hand while trying to pour contents into a bowl. Light color interior will eventually stain. No biggie for me. Must use non scratch utensils. And of course brand is not inexpensive. Also must use heat protector sleeve (pot holder) for handle, lid, etc. But when you need that enameled cast iron cooking, this pan really meets the task.
