★★★★★
Great for slow cooking
Produces incredibly tender and flavorful braised dishes.
★★★★★
Truly superior cooking
I've cooked several meals in my new Cherry 5.5qt cocotte and I'm consistently impressed. The self-basting lid is not a gimmick; everything comes out incredibly moist. It's a heavy pot, but that's part of what makes it so good at heat retention. Cleanup is surprisingly easy too, even after a long simmer.
★★★★☆
Great quality overall
The Matte Black finish looks very sophisticated. This cocotte cooks food evenly and browns beautifully. I found that the bottom stained slightly after making a tomato sauce, even after immediate cleaning. It still works perfectly, though.
★★★★☆
Excellent cooking, minor issues
The 5.5qt capacity is perfect for family meals. The self-basting lid really does work, creating very tender dishes. The Cherry color is vibrant. My only qualm is how easily fingerprints show on the glossy exterior, requiring frequent wiping.
