Stansport Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Dutch Oven

I bought the 2 quart with legs and just used this dutch oven over a charcoal fire and it performed well. Food was cooked evenly and heat retention was great. Lid fits tight. Very nice oven for 1 to 2 people but I was able to feed 5 people with some leftover. Don't let the small size fool you. Yes I recommend this little dutch oven. I'm thinking of buying the same oven with flat bottom next.

This is such a versatile little cast iron Dutch oven. I have been wanting a cast ion mortar and pestle and so far the largest one I have found is 16-ounces and I ended up ordering it. The pestle is great -- very heavy and solid and it is very sturdy. However, the mortar doesn't quite measure up -- it seems rather small in comparison to the pestle and it is also considerably lighter in weight than I expected + the sides and base are fairly thin (for cast iron, anyway). I thought this Dutch oven might make a good substitute for the mortar even though it doesn't have the usual rounded bottom. It works perfectly! And the entire construction is very heavy and robust with very thick sides and base. This will be useful for so many other things, too. I like the cute shape and I'll be using it for butter on baking day, for BBQ sauce when grilling and it is excellent for small meals for just one. I like the heavy-duty lid, too; it has a flat top to allow coals to be placed on it if the oven is to be nestled in a campfire and there is a ridge around the inner circumference to help keep it in place, but still allow enough movement so I can actually open it when I want to. The logo and little loop handle has a charming, vintage look, too. Of course, being made of cast iron, this will need occasional seasoning. The price is fantastic, as well. I'm very happy to have found this...

I am an avid camper and enjoy spicing things up a little. I was able to season this Dutch oven, use it for meatloaf (1 pound of beef plus onions and bell peppers), cleaned it in the creek then added more oil to re-season, then baked some bread the next morning for breakfast. This Dutch oven was the talk of the campsite haha! Great purchase and good size for shorter camping trecks. However longer trips it is quite heavy. But very… very awesome! Fed my buddy and myself a few times with this handy little dude! Even made some French fries for my wife when we went on a hike. Lid fits well, great quality, and the bail (handle) works really well when needed. I would buy this again but I’m sure this one will last me forever.

Arrived today. Good clean casting. No blemishes or faults. As expected it is not a smooth cast. But Im not going to polish on it. Will just take my time and season it over several rounds. Bale and lid fit well and embossing is clean and attractive. Edit: have been cooking in it for a week. It took seasoning very very well and I am extremely pleased with its performance. Everyone is asking me where I got it.

Fits in the Coleman Camping Oven, great for 2 people (8 inches across size). Seams well made. If I had to purchase again I would get the footed one to use with other camp fires and stacking dutch ovens.

Perfect size. Good quality. Hold about 2 cans of soup.

Very well made Happy with this purchase (4qt) Comes already seasoned & Ready to use Lid fit Great, no issues Handle will be great for over the fire Should last a lifetime

Love this little pot! Great size for making meals for my small dog. Just throw everything in pot, add some water and cook for an hour! PERFECT SIZE! I'll be purchasing more in the future so I can make small portions of different foods for myself as well. Great quality! Great price!
