The Surprising Le Creuset Gem Our Readers Bought So Many of This Year (No, Not a Dutch Oven)

Le Creuset’s Traditional Round Balti Dish might not be what you immediately think of when you consider what to buy from this brand, but I can totally see what there is to love about it. It features a high-sided bowl with decently tall handles on the sides to make it easy to grab (especially important when you’re taking a hot dish out of the oven). Plus, it comes in seven colors (although three are currently sold out!), is dishwasher-safe, and can go between the oven and the stove, like quite a bit of Le Creuset’s cookware. And this dish is guaranteed to look so nice on your table (yay for only dirtying one pot!). 

Of course, the Le Creuset item readers bought most in 2024 after the Balti Dish was this Pitcher. It’s super affordable at just $50 and is so stunning! Not only would this be such a cute piece to pull out for lemonade, iced tea, and sangria in the summertime, but because it’s made of stoneware, it can also accommodate winter beverages like hot cocoa and mulled wine. Oh, and you can toss it right into your dishwasher — no problem. 

Rounding out our list of readers’ favorite Le Creuset products from this year is the brand’s Signature Cassadou. This is the priciest item on this list, but it’s also so pretty and useful, as a pot that can move seamlessly between your oven and stovetop. Thanks to its enameled cast iron, you won’t have to worry about seasoning it and you’ll get nice, even cooking throughout the pot. Plus, it comes with a lid and is available in so many colors that you’re bound to find just the right one for your kitchen.
