Great little Dutch oven!

This is a great little Dutch oven. I have to be honest I bought this one because I loved the way it looked. I don't really bake bread, but I am very tempted to try now.I got this thing as a one step solution to cookware. I use it for everything. My family is small and I just have to cook for 4. This does that, just. It is large enough to cook stew for 4 people with no leftovers. The lid is large enough for frying, although a bit awkward in shape. I find it cooks bacon well and is great for chorizo and eggs. You can fit a NY steak in the lid nicely, but one at a time, so make it a thick boy and split it. I've made countless pot roasts and it's not terrible for Shepards pie. I know it's for bread, but it's a Dutch oven, cook what you want in it. I love mine, I can cook just about any dish in this cute little pot.Update: After months of hard use I can report it is holding up well enough. Be aware if you are using it a lot the enamel is going to chip off here and there. Mostly just a cosmetic issue, I think it has added character to mine. If you like you cookware prestine though either be careful or get a non enameled Dutch oven.

It's great!!!

It's just wonderful! I have a NuWave Bravo XL toaster/air fryer, and have been looking for just the right Dutch oven to fit in it for breadmaking and cooking. The KóóK fits perfectly! As soon as I ordered it I started a batch of 5 Minute a Day Artisan dough, and a day later my Dutch oven arrived. I have made two loaves already and I couldn't be more pleased. The rise was high, the crust crackly, and the inside tender and moist. I normally do a cold start in my big oven, so I did one with the KóóK in the NuWave. I raised my dough, slashed it, and put it in the cold DO, then put it in the cold NuWave and set it for bake at 425. Thirty-five minutes later I took off the lid, to see a lovely, tall loaf of artisan bread. I left the lid off for another 10-15 minutes and took it out. It was easy to maneuver the Kóók in and out of the NuWave, and my loaf was gorgeous. It could not have been easier, and I didn't heat my house with the regular oven.Some have written that the enamel on the cast iron was thin, but on this one it is thick and glossy and well coated. It seals well when closed. There is no enamel on the rim to the lid or body, but I see no reason to consider that a problem and rust should also not be a problem. Heat distribution must be excellent because my crust was evenly and beautifully browned, and I can make a small loaf or a fairly large one equally well. And I think the DO is just lovely. When I unboxed it, the lid lever was missing. I wasn't concerned, as people have complained about it, but decided to contact help and see if I could have one sent. I wrote them last night via email, and this morning I got a reply, and this evening, I received an email telling me one was on the way. That's excellent support and service - thank you Anna. I love cast iron and cook with it for almost everything. I have Staub, Le Creuset, Descoware and Lodge. My new KóóK will fit right in with pride. For what it is I think the price was just fine and I expect to cook whatever I want in it for a long time to come.I'm adding to my review, as I've had this pot for a few days now. First, I can't say enough how wonderful customer service is - great people who truly seem concerned with customer satisfaction. I have baked several loaves of bread in the DO now, all of which are still turning out great. Also, I have made two batches of focaccia in the lids - they make a wonderful pan for it. The lid is just the size for 2 people and the bread baked up beautifully. When baking for a small family, this is an awesome Dutch oven and I still couldn't be any more pleased!

Nice, heavy bread pan

This is a nice, heavy cast iron bread pan. Seems to be of very good quality, and I like the enameled version. Do make sure to use a bit of parchment paper when making your bread, because if you just oil it, the oil simply slides down and your bread will still stick to the sides.Pros: Simple, and easy to use. Heavy duty. Functional. Does what it is made for.Cons: It is a heavy pan, so make sure to take that into consideration if you are looking for something lighter and easier to manage. This could be a pro or a con, depending on your needs. For me, this is actually a pro. :)

Amazing Dutch Oven

I ventured into sourdough baking and was looking for a bread baking Dutch Oven that was of good quality, but did not cost hundreds of dollars. I saw that this Kook Dutch Oven had good reviews. I liked that it was oval shaped and had a smaller profile than the round ones I was seeing. It was on sale, so I thought I'd give it a try. It arrived securely packaged and well protected in it's box. I unwrapped it and was very pleased with it's appearance. Mine is blue with white interior. It's quite weighty and substantial and appears to be very well made. It comes with the main "oven", lid and a lid removing tool. I couldn't wait to bake my first loaf of sourdough bread and the Kook Dutch Oven did not disappoint. The oven helps me produce perfect sourdough loaves with crispy, brown exteriors and soft, lofty interiors. I have used it for several months and have baked at least a dozen loaves including white, wheat and rye and have had great results each time. The Kook Dutch Oven washes well and still look new. I would highly recommend buying one.

I like the shape, just not the design.

Its a beautiful pan. My only complaint is the handles to get the lid off. It comes with a handle to pick the lid up, but the handles are so close together its hard to get the handle in it and when the oven is 450 degrees I'm not trying to lose all my heat in the oven while I'm taking a lid off. Its not hard, just difficult. It functions as should, cooked the bread okay; a little underdone in middle though. I love the tradional loaf shape though vs the round pot. Just going to take a minute getting used to. Easy to clean.

Love the size and shape!!!

Love it! Started making sourdough and got a 7qt Dutch oven I ended up returning it, it was way too heavy for me. This size is perfect!!! Makes my sourdough loaf perfect slices to put in my toaster. I got the black, easy to clean. It comes with a lid opener thing, it comes handy but it’s easy to open the hot lid with oven mitts too. I have recommended to my friends and would definitely buy again!
