Customer Reviews of Le Creuset 2-3/4-Quart Soup Pot, Blue
old-school style Even though the pot's description says its a 2-3/4 quart soup pot, it turned out to be a lot smaller than I imagined. Overall, its quite good though, distrubutes heat very well and is really cute (I chose the red one). I got it because this brand is known to last long and have great quality cookware, and it's proven itself thus far. If you are looking for a great slow-cooker, or old-fashioned soup pot, this is the way to go. Be careful though, if you are used to non-stick types with plastic handles... this pot heats up fast and super hot.
It's called a soup pot for a reason...
I love this soup pot. I own virtually every Le Creuset item made since the sixties, plus a few pieces handed down to me. And an excellent soup pot it is. I also recommend their new Doufeu which I own and love. Best meat cooker I have ever owned.

>The difference between this and the various Le Creuset dutch ovens is the curved shape which allows soup stocks and broths to simmer slow and not have any meat or vegetables settle into straight sides. This can be tricky for the serious cook, because food that cannot be stirred completely can settle and overcook leaving an off taste. The size is also nice for two to six healthy servings of a hearty soup or stew.

>And the cost isn't that high when one considers the near one hundred year guarantee Le Creuset offers on its products. And its called a soup pot not a casserole. So one can simmer on a low flame any soup, with the heavy cast iron core holding the heat at a steady temperature which is what produces the best soups.
Matte Black is not smooth
I love Le Creuset cookware, but I was not happy with the Matte Black finish. I assumed the matte finish would be on the outside of the pot- but it is on the inside as well. I even called Le Creuset support about it because I thought it was a defect.

>If you read on Le Creuset's site, they go into detail how the pots are cast and then carefully sanded before being enamled.

>However, this pot feels like it was just cast and then painted. It is *coarse*- I haven't used it yet, but I think it will be harder to clean, and I suspect not as durable in the long run.
