This Stockpots give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Red Pot for a Happy Kitchen
Compared to my favorite Calphalon Commercial Hard Anodized 8-Quart Stock Pot, the Le Creuset 8-Quart Stockpot is much lighter and easier to lift and carry when filled with liquid. This stockpot is not enamel-coated cast iron like the Le Creuset pots and pans, but the colors are identical. It heats up very quickly in comparison, too. Soups, stews, and stocks cook well in this pot because the lid is tight-fitting. I would like it for a second stock pot in this size. I like the Calphalon stock pots better because they all have pasta or steamer inserts.
The Le Creuset Red Pots are not the same cherry red like their famous heart-shaped 2-Quart Pan, but a slighter deeper shade.
2. Pretty pot, but not a great perfomer
There are a few things I like about this pot. You can get it in attractive colors to match you Le Creuset cookware. It lighter and easier to lift, and also cheaper than my "good" Le Creuset cast iron cookware. It is good for boiling pasta. It is not good for cooking anything that might stick or scorch! I am not a bad cook, but I keep having things stick in the bottom of this pan, which also wore quickly in spite of using gentle stirring implements. It is simply not a high-performance pan, but for just boiling things in water, it comes in handy, and you don't have to be embarrassed if you leave it sitting out, since it's pretty.

Le Creuset stands by their product
I bought my set at an outlet store. I bought "2nd quality" which were supposed to be cosmetic defects only. I started noticing tiny rust spots on the inferior quality products the first month.
I sent back to Le Creuset, and they sent me perfect replacements immediately.
The only negative was having to wait two weeks during the exchange.
But this has been a wonderful experience. I am very impressed with how Le Creuset stands by their products, and how helpful their staff is. I would whole-heartedly recommend Le Creuset to anyone.
