I’m slowly turning over my (red) Le Creuset collection to my adult kids.
Just so heavy, for me. I’ve kept my Dutch ovens, for now.
Amazon had the 3.5 qt (red) for $139.00, the other day, that we got. It was on their Treasure Truck and we were going in to town, that day, so it worked out, great.
Boy can I relate. My most used pots have been my 7 Qt Soup Pot and my 13 Qt Round Dutch Oven for most meals. If someone cannot help with them I am screwed.
I just made Califlower Cheese Soup at the request from the one daughter in the 7 QT and she did all the heavy lifting or no soup for her lol...
