The creuset you show in the video is actually the enty level classic (4 fiingers handle & plastic Knob), not the signature which has wider handle (5 fingers) and metal knobs. So you comparision is off...
@@valentinb758 I believe it's the Signature - you can tell by the knobs. The Signature Phenolic knob just says "Le Creuset" on it (like mine), the Classic Phenolic knob has the logo and "Le Creuset"....You're right though, most Signature models has metal knobs now. Here's the info about the knobs: www.lecreuset.com/blog/personalize-your-cookware-with-interchangeable-knobs.html
In South Africa the genuine Le Creuset pots all have stainless metal handles not plastic.
In Canada (and I suspect elsewhere) they can be found either way. And if you don’t like whichever you’ve gotten Amazon sells the other. (Metal sounds better, but not always so-the metal gets much hotter.)
I love my enameled cast iron braisers and dutch ovens, but I tend to use them mostly on my stovetop because they are so heavy when full of food for four people. I do really appreciate the dimpled lids on some of my pans and use them for long cooking, and I did not know that the Made In pans had that feature as well. Thanks for the information, it’s very useful.
Thanks for watching!!
Great video, I would add that the flat handles on the Made in is easy to lift the pot just by stacking your fingers without putting them in and it seems that as your video shows the handle can hold the spoon. Thanks!
The metal Le Creuset knobs are only rated to 500°F. That's only 20° more than the plastic Signature knobs.
Question: have you ever unscrewed the knobs to see if the knobs are interchangeable? If the threads are the same then you could buy the knob of your choice and an extra for Stove top use or oven use. Thx for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us.
With Le Creuset you can buy different knobs if you want to change them out for any reason. You can switch out the plastic knobs for stainless in various colors.
Dutch Oven lids have a hole in them that the screw for the knob goes through to screw into the knob on top so, realistically, any knob from any brand will fit, if the screw fits through the hole in the lid. Has anyone tried this or verified the compatibility of those holes from Brand to Brand?
Le Creuset has also metal knobs.
@@sheilam4964 You can put a Staub knob on a Le Creuset Dutch oven as well - the cute extra edition knobs as well.
Does the handle heat up? and, Can I use metal spatula on these?
Can use metal
Need oven mits for handles
Good stuff
Glad you enjoyed
You can now get stainless steel handles on La Creuset. What about price I know LC is expensive.
Are they comparative in price?
Le Creuset is more expensive. I’ve linked to both in the video description so you can compare current prices.
Looks like ‘’Made in’’ is cheaper version of Staub
My Lodge will do everything these do and costs a lot less. Metal knob and drip nubs too.
What I don't like about Le Creuset besides the price that that the isn't self basting. Self basting really does make a difference in the finished food.
If budget is really tight then Cuisinart is the best entry level. I have some lesser known brands of enameled cast iron and most I love. They cost significantly less than either Made In or Le Creuset. It was a huge gamble to buy Imarku and Merten & Storck and it paid off well. Amazon enameled cast iron is just awful and will never buy it again.
If weight is a concern then Merten & Storck is worth considering. The company calls it enameled iron but it is enameled carbon steel which does make it lighter.
Not paying 300 for a pot . Not paying over 50.00 for a pot period
what is Lou Creuset
Did I pronounce it wrong?
@PrudentReviews Lay, not Lou. Smiles.
I was trying to follow this but still need some work ruclips.net/video/8lrTa_VbxxM/видео.html
yea thats how i would have imagined it, no such vocals in english. probably as hard as TH for germans@@PrudentReviews
Yes, that is actually the way the French pronounce it. They tend to get annoyed with us when we pronounce it "lay" or "lah".
Made In is a private equity funded company. Many of their products are of low quality.
Being a private equity company doesn't mean poor quality. Nor is being on the exchange with the highest concern for the investors a sign of quality.
The only piece from Made In that I have issues with is their wok. Buying a wok at any Asian market is the best choice.
I have stainless steel set. Love it. Not lesser quality, at all.
