First time I used this Dutch Oven, I found the enamel flaked off. I used a wooden spoon, temperature never exceeded 350 degrees, it wasn't dropped, yet the enamel is gone; I wonder who ate that ;-(.Very, very disappointing. Of course, when I ordered it, it was back ordered and when it finally arrived, after the Christmas holidays, I didn't have a need to use it until recently (after the return window closed). This made in China Lodge Dutch Oven is a big waste of your money. Don't order it.
