A new addition to the Le Creuset specialties line, this hors d'oeuvres set is sure to brighten your next party by serving chips and salsa, shrimp and cocktail sauce, crudités and artichoke dip, and much more. Made of high-fired stoneware and glazed with nonporous enamel, both pieces are extremely durable and resist cracking, chipping, and staining. The 13-1/2-inch platter with its raised center might be a bit large to fit in most microwaves, but it can be oven-heated for serving hot appetizers. Fitting perfectly in the platter's raised center, the 16-ounce bowl can go from the freezer to the oven or microwave, and works nicely on its own for things other than dips. Choose from a variety of bright modern colors for the exteriors; the interiors show a more neutral tone for contrast. After use, the platter and bowl can be washed easily by hand or in the dishwasher. Le Creuset products are made in France and are covered by a lifetime warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

Though many cooks acquire those special cookware pieces one by one over the years, some of us are not so patient. This six-piece cookware set contains four cast iron cookware pieces from Le Creuset, the brand that introduced us to quality cast iron. The 2 1/4-quart Saucier Pan comes with a fitted lid and is ideal for slow simmering and reductions. The 5 1/2-quart Round French Oven holds a whole chicken or roast and can be used on the stovetop or in the oven. The Square Skillet and Roaster are equally versatile, and each piece is coated with durable enamel that protects the piece from chipping and rusting, facilitates nonstick cooking and cleans up easily.

 "Great set - can't beat Le Creuset" 2010-08-28
By St. A Boiler (Saint Augustine, FL)
This is a great set in particular when you can get a deal on it. I purchased the set last Christmas for my wife and the price was really decent and they threw in the spatula set for free as well (also recommended). We started using all the pieces immediately and continued to buy even more over this last year. I will say that if you find a similar set with the griddle I would consider it as that is really the only item we don't use at least weekly. It just doesn't seem to fit as I can't find a good use for it and it is more dofficult to clean. But the other three pieces are highly recommended and perhaps the griddle has a use as well, I just haven't found it yet.

 "Patience pays off" 2009-01-17
By Doog (California)
Had this saved in my cart for about a year, and it finally hit a price point that was too good to pass up. A great complement to the 5-piece set I had purchased last year. I have not seen any pitting. Each piece will get a workout in my kitchen. A great set for those who are looking to upgrade their cookware. Satin Dune might not be the most exciting color, but it will blend in with most "standard" kitchen decor. I'm not big on everything being perfectly color matched (I have Le Creuset items in about 3 different colors now), but I know it is a consideration for some. Be sure to watch for special offers, as they come up often.

 "Le Creuset 6 Piece Set Carribean Blue" 2008-02-11
By Shelley D. Maughan
I reccomend this product to any avid cook. Especially for soups and stews, the dutch oven is just...marvelous. Searing in the pan is a breeze and gives it great color. They are so easy to clean up. Its just great. I've been wanting this for a long time and it has met and exceeded my expectations.

 "Pitted pot" 2007-12-28
By Christopher R. Dudzinski (SoCal)
I bought the Dune set on a lightning deal. The 5.5 qt oven had a pitting problem. Two deep pits on the bottom interior surface and many minor pits on the outside. It would be a second in the Le Creuset outlet. I contacted Amazon and they were great and sent out a replacement set, not only the oven. The second set had one pit mark on the interior side of the 5.5 qt so I keept it and sent the rest of the second set back with the first pitted 5.5 qt oven. It was a pain since the box weighs 40 pounds. Amazon did well by me but Le Creuset needs better quality control.

P.S. I lost out on the bonus since I had to order lightning fast to get the deal, so be prepared if you are tracking this set for a deal.

 "The best out there" 2007-10-27
By Jessica (Kentucky)
This is by far the best cookware available. My advice, READ the manual before using if you are not familiar with the way cast iron cooks. I made the mistake of turning my burners to high heat when they function on low to medium! You will burn your food and ruin your pan if you use the high heat! Other than that (which is entirely my fault for not reading) this is so nice to have in my collection. This set is perfect to round off a cookware set.

 "High-quality set at good value" 2010-06-02
By J. Mingo (USA)
This is a VERY high-quality set that will last a lifetime (and then some).



The set is comprised of a few of Le Creuset's top-of-the-line enamaled cast iron pieces, packaged together to make a great value.



Truly a great set.

 "The Cadillac of Pans" 2010-03-05
By P. Rose (Oakland, CA)
This set will fill your needs or just introduce you to the fine cookware that Le Creuset makes. Always a bit pricey, the durability and cookability of these pans is legendary. Remember to reduce the heat when cooking and allow for seasoning of the pan with use and it should provide many many years of service. Haven't had the enamel chip off yet, but try not to bang them around too much. Remember these are heavy pans and a strong wrist and firm grip is needed. Would I buy them again? No need to, they will last a lifetime to be passed down to heirs.

 "Sturdy, and heavy" 2010-01-31
By Arlan Purdy (United States)
It will be years before I am really ready to comment on this cookware, but my first impressions are good. I have always heard good things about Le Creuset and I am pleased with the look and feel.



I was worried the cast iron would take too much longer to heat up, but I don't notice it taking longer. I do notice that I don't have to worry as much about "catching back up" after adding more to the pot--they maintain heat better.



I have scorched some things on the pans and you are not supposed to scour them, but so far everything comes off with a hot water soak and some patient scrubbing.



As should already be clear, the cast iron is heavy. I don't mind but it is quite noticeable so it may be a downside for others who are considering.



The only thing that has bothered me at all is that the stickers don't come off very cleanly. There's sticker glue on the beautiful pots and pans that won't go away. Irritating for such classy pans.

 "I REGRET BUYING THE LE CREUSET STOCKPOT" 2008-05-24
By J. Yaki
I bought a Le Creuset stockpot for my wife. She used it a few times to cook rice, then noticed a big hole in the enamel in the bottom of the pot. The pot is not high quality like I thought it was.

 "Indispensable when cooking small amounts" 2008-05-08
By bordercrosser (British Columbia)
This is a nifty little set, and I'm glad I picked it up. While these pieces don't serve all of our needs, they are what we reach for when frying up eggs for one, or other dishes for one or two people. When I unpacked the set, I was worried about the grainy, satin enamel finish on the skillet. But thanks to some good advice from other reviewers, there were no problems. I pre-warmed the pan over medium-low heat for a couple of minutes, then added butter and coated the pan. Then I added my eggs and cooked as usual. Nothing stuck to the pan -- the eggs slid right out, and the pan cleaned up easily with a swish of the sponge and a bit of dish soap. That's it! Don't let the finish on the pan deter you from buying it... just heat it gently before adding butter or oil and all will be well. High heat is unnecessary, as you'll discover. Using the Le Creuset silicone spoon spatula to lift out the food is gentle on the pan and works like a charm.



Almost forgot... the lid for the 3.5-qt round oven in this set fits nicely over the 9" skillet (except the pouring spouts will be exposed, but that's not a big deal), in case you're wondering what to use as a cover for it when the need arises.

 "Yes, these are cute..." 2009-08-31
By T. Musselman (Seattle, WA)
When I saw these, I just had to have them. Yes, they are cute. Yes, they are small but that is exactly as advertised. I don't use them often because they are not necessarily a practical item but they do make me "smile."

 "Precious Petite Pots" 2009-01-13
By Erin A. Franke
These are precious. They are great for displaying/adding a punch of color to your kitchen and they are also great for individual desserts or dip bowls. Too cute!

 "Too adorable for words!" 2008-02-22
By kcbranaghsgirl (Chicago, IL USA)
I saw these in person at a manufacturer's outlet store and as a berry fan, I simply HAD to have them. They are very cleverly designed - the lids fit snugly and don't wobble, thanks to a little notch in the cover and a matching one in the bottom piece. As you can see from the photo, the lids all have handles for easy unveiling of your culinary masterpiece inside.



Amazon doesn't tell you how big these casseroles are, but I will: the package says the capacity of the strawberry, raspberry and blackberry casseroles is 14 oz. The blueberry, with its non-tapered bottom, holds nearly 50% more (20 oz.).



Your friends and family might get suspicious if you always take the blueberry for yourself, but don't worry - I won't tell!

 "Should be sold as a diet aid" 2007-08-02
By Wolf in Sheep's Clothing (in the dry, hot, dark of the desert)
Yes, if you are after low-calorie deserts, these cute little stoneware pots are for you. Nevermind that the mfg. doesn't bother to tell how much they hold -- just know that if you put more than a cup of anything in them and then put them in the oven to bake -- you'll have most of your petite endeavour all over the bottom of the oven.



Great for tiny cobblers (use about 5 ounces of fruit and then about 4 x 1T dollops of crust/topping.) Use them for tiny servings of baked lasagna. Or tiny cakes to top with cold berries and whipped cream.



Just know that the word to remember is tiny. Very small. Itty bitty.



And cute.

 "Cute, but not very useful" 2010-03-16
By Athena Chen (Cleveland, OH)
I've only used them once to make molten chocolate cakes (recipe in the included cookbook), and they worked quite well. The cakes were delicious, too. However, I really think this was a purchase I made on a whim because I like Le Creuset and this particular product is aesthetically pleasing. I do not think these mini cocottes are practical, but that is in part due to what I like to cook (soups and stir-fries).

 "Stoneware mini cocottes" 2010-01-15
By A. Thomas (Fort Wayne, IN United States)
Like an earlier reviewer, having looked at the product description for the individual mini cocotte I assumed that this set would be enamel cast iron--the traditional LeCreuset trademark product--and that the set was a special promo. Alas, the set is "stoneware"--just another name for pottery. The pieces are clearly good quality--but overpriced. I have not yet decided whether to keep them, since they are attractive and useful for individual servings. The cookbook that is included has some interesting recipes in it--the mini spinach souffles and the onion soup come to mind--although several recipes seem to use the mini cocottes as little more than serving pieces. For those who love all things LeCreuset, this may be worth the expense, even though the little-used lids are the only place the brand name is visible.

 "These are stoneware, not enameled cast iron" 2010-01-11
By galileojunk (Seattle, WA)
I was expecting these to be a set of the Le Creuset mini-cocottes that are sold individually by Amazon (and Williams-Sonoma, Sur la table, etc.), but that's not what they are. Those are made of the usual Le Creuset enameled cast iron...this set is made of stoneware, just pottery.



It didn't say in the product description that these were stoneware, and I assumed they were cast-iron because their other mini-cocottes are cast-iron. That said, I probably should have guessed based on the price. I thought I was getting a deal with 4 cast-iron ones for $80; not such a deal when they're light-weight pottery instead.



Anyway, I may still keep them; haven't decided. They're very cute and I'm sure they'll bake well, but I think they're probably overpriced.

 "amazing quality that guests won't forget" 2009-09-28
By Julian T. Raymond (Atlanta, GA USA)
i got these at sur la table in charlotte, nc... before they even hit the floor. they come in a great little box for storage and include a recipe book... haven't tried a recipe in it yet, but it looks pretty good from the start. my only complaint is that you can tell the recipe book is translated from french. they opted to stress style in the layout, so they don't always give explicit instructions and assume you know how to cook. I do, and I think anyone who'd spend 20 bucks per mini cocotte would, too.



they're not a must-have kitchen item... but they sure will leave an impression on dinner guests.

 "Le Creuset Spatula Set" 2010-02-24
By D. B. Trumbo (Cedar Rapids)
This is a great set of spatulas. There is a nice verity of sizes and the handles are very nice. Looks great in the kitchen too.

 "Worse than cheaper alternatives" 2010-02-23
By Michael D (Washington, DC USA)
I've had an equivalent set of Le Creseut spatulas for several years, in orange. I have thrown them out and replaced them with better, cheaper alternatives.



While the Le Creuset spatulas might have been nice 2 decades ago, now they offer no advantage.



PROBLEMS:



* The silicon is too soft. Only the small spoon-shaped one is ok. The others are all a bit too soft to be any real use for cooking or stirring anything other than something light like eggwhites. For example, try to scoop up some stew in the largest one, and the spoon will flop over, inverting.



* The silicon can discolor. If you leave the silicoln on the edge of a hot pan for a while, it can discolor.



* The wood is softer than typical hardwoods for a cheap wooden spoon. After using a spatula, typically you will whack it on the edge of a pot to shake off excess. This can be done hundreds of times with a wooden spoon. But with the Le Creusets, the wood is getting broken down and fuzzy and bits of wood fall into my food.



* The system of removable sticks is nonideal. The biggest problem is that in practice, you may not want to take apart your spatulas every time you clean. As a result, the wood can develop off smells. Further, over time, sometimes the head gets loose around the wood, making them prone to fall off.



All in all, there are plenty of high-temperature, one-piece spatulas available now which are a better buy, and which I have replaced my Le Creuset set with.



Happy spatula-ing!

 "Do the 7 pieces refer to how badly damaged it is?" 2010-01-21
By Bruce (Central New Jersey, USA)
I finally received the utensil holder after waiting over a month and the item was very badly damaged. It did not come with any utensils, the only pieces it came with were the broken pieces.



It looks to be a nice item if it comes intact and with the other items.
