This Gorgeous $40 Le Creuset Dupe at Sam’s Club Is Almost Too Good to Be True

It’s no secret that Le Creuset makes some of the finest cookware to ever grace our kitchens — particularly their iconic Dutch oven. Crafted from cast iron, the Dutch oven is known for baking, roasting, and slow-cooking, holding in both flavor and moisture. However, the product currently retails for up to $625, depending on the size. While a truly fantastic investment, it’s just not feasible for many of us right now. Luckily, Sam’s Club is selling a Dutch oven dupe that is so good you’ll never know the difference.

As spotted by Instagrammer @ohheysamsclub, the Tramontina Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven is on clearance for $41.94. Originally nearly $50, the seven-quart pot is known for its superior heat retention and is oven-safe up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Plus, it comes in a variety of colors such as Peacock, Persimmon, Red, Blue, and Cranberry, making for a sleek addition to your kitchenware collection.

With thousands of raving reviews, home chefs are adoring the design, its non-stick features, and most notably, the price. “I recently used this crock pot to make my ‘famous’ beef stew,” wrote one reviewer. “I’ve previously owned a Le Creuset dutch oven, and this worked just as well. I ordered the navy blue, and the color is spot on and very pretty. Very happy with [the] purchase.” 

“I love my new pot,” said another user. “The size is perfect for my family and cooks deliciously. I can leave it on the stove when not in use because it’s very pretty too!”

Whether you’re making a rich gumbo, crispy sourdough bread, or your favorite casserole, this oven will certainly do the trick (and it won’t break the bank). Since it’s on clearance, we expect these will sell out quickly, so you’ll probably want to take advantage of the deal while you can.
