Le Creuset’s Huge Sale Is Ending Soon—Here Are the Deals Still Worth Grabbing

We’ve recommended Le Creuset cookware and kitchen tools for years, and for good reason. The brand’s Dutch ovens, ceramic skillets, pasta bowls, and more have demonstrated their performance and durability through every one of our rigorous tests. It’s especially great when you can grab Le Creuset pieces at a steal, such as right now, during the brand’s winter sale. So while we never hesitate to say that a Le Creuset Dutch oven is well worth the investment, we’re particularly excited to share these deals we found on some of our tested picks, including a wide version of our favorite Dutch oven, the best enameled cast iron skillet, a set of incredibly slick ceramic frying pans, and more. You can grab them for up to $200 off while they’re still on sale.

Signature Round Wide Oven

For years, we’ve recommended Le Creuset’s Dutch oven thanks to its impeccable heat distribution and retention. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a cool or hot spot while cooking with it. This wider version of our top pick allows for full chicken roasts and is $150 off.

Traditional Shallow Round Oven

Currently $110 off, this shallower Dutch oven offers the same cooking performance as the traditional Dutch oven, but with slightly shorter sides to promote browning. The wide, shallow base is ideal for baking casseroles or searing meatballs.

Traditional Braiser with Glass Lid

Le Creuset makes our favorite braiser, which we called “the Cadillac of braisers” in our review. The wide, flat surface allows for ample searing without any crowding and the curved sides promote smooth stirring for sauces and stews. The wide, looped handles also make it easy to maneuver it into and out of the oven. This version with a glass lid allows you to track the progress of your cooking and is over $100 off.

Traditional Skillet

Finished with a dark interior enamel that’s virtually impossible to stain, this enameled cast iron skillet can sear, fry, bake, and more. In our tests, it made evenly cooked cornbread and churned out nicely browned steaks. It also lasts for generations and you can grab it for $75 off.  

Essential Nonstick Ceramic 2-Piece Fry Pan Set

For $160, you can grab two sizes of our favorite ceramic nonstick pans. The cooking surface is smooth on food but tough when it comes to durability. In our tests, the coating resisted scratching and released fried eggs without a hitch. Its thick bottom guarantees even cooking but the pan itself remains light enough to maneuver with one hand.

Mini Round Cocotte

Ideal for personal servings of baked oatmeal, chocolate lava cakes, or crème brûlée, these mini round cocottes are on sale for $16 each in select colors. The small ceramic bakers can also be used to hold sauces and dips on a party platter. 

San Francisco 16-Piece Dinnerware Set

A favorite of ours when it comes to dinnerware sets, this San Francisco set from Le Creuset is as durable as it gets. While lightweight, they’re still substantial enough to resist scratching and chipping over years of use, according to our associate editorial director, Riddley Gemperlein-Schirm.

Demi Kettle and Mugs Set

The Le Creuset stovetop kettle is lightning fast: It heated up 0.75 quarts of water 30 seconds faster than the competition. Plus, the spout makes for a smooth water-pouring experience. For $100, this set comes with a kettle and two mugs to complete your mornings.
