Our Tester Says 'You Can't Go Wrong' With This Dutch Oven, Which is 40% Off in Wayfair's Flash Sale – But Hurry, it Ends Today
This Lodge Dutch oven is stylish, durable, and adored by home cooks – and it's under $90 at Wayfair
Every keen chef needs a reliable selection of cookware, but investing in quality pieces can put a dent in your bank balance. When it comes to the best Dutch ovens, heritage brands will usually take the glory (and carry a hefty price tag), unless you know where to find trustworthy alternatives. My secret weapon? American-made Lodge cookware – and the Lodge Dutch oven is just $89.90 in the Wayfair sale right now.
If you want to snap up this piece, you'll need to be quick: Wayfair's flash sale ends today. Even without such an impressive 40% discount, Lodge is a brilliant way to invest in some of the best cast iron cookware – but I'll always take advantage of a good deal, and you can't get much better than this.
From soups and stews to casseroles and even freshly baked bread, a good Dutch oven can be one of the hardest-working pieces in your kitchen. If you're not quite ready to fork out on premium brands, however, a Lodge Dutch oven is ideal: according to Lydia, the family-owned brand produces some of the best cookware on the market.
'From day one, the brand has emphasized durability, serious heat retention, and cookware you can pass down generations,' she explains. 'Lodge cookware isn't fancy, but it's reliable and solid. You won't find synthetic coatings or gimmicks – just heavy cast iron, ready to stand the test of time as long as you take care of it.'
While many Lodge Dutch oven colorways have already sold out at Wayfair, the sleek cream, classic red and vibrant blue shades are all still available at 40% off. Lydia tested the cream version, describing it as 'very robust, reliable, and good-looking.'
Of course, the best pieces blend style with functionality, and Lydia was thoroughly impressed by the Lodge Dutch oven's performance. 'If you want a top-performing pan for stews, soups, bread, and casseroles – but you don't want to spend a fortune – you can't go wrong,' she concluded.
While you'll want to carefully clean and dry your Lodge Dutch oven to avoid rust and chipping, there's no denying that it's a worthy investment. It's even PFAS-free, so if you're looking for the best non-toxic cookware, it checks that box, too. At 40% off, I'd say it's a no-brainer.
