Reviews & Questions
Staub La Cocotte 26-cm_5.5-qt 5.25 l cast iron round Cocotte, cherry - Visual Imperfections cherry is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 41.
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Major Imperfections Bought many products from Zwilling/Staub in the past with visual imperfections. In this case, I bought the 6.7L Cocotte in Grenadine with visual imperfections. I received a product with over 20 significant imperfections on the lid, on the outside of the pot and in the pot's black interior. I have never received a Staub cast iron item with so many major imperfections before — far more than the usual case for products marked "visual imperfections." Proceed with caution as these items are marked "final sale," and customer support has been non-responsive.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Rusting spots appeared in 2 weeks I bought this cocotte at homesense. I used twice and noticed rusting spots on lids within 2 weeks of purchase. I contacted customer services and was told to ship back to warehouse for 'assessment'. (Shipping on me and they won't responsible for lost in transit).

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Interior black finish peeled off after second use Buyer beware! Staub manufacturing standards are not consistent. I used my new cocette only 2 times and the interior black finish peeled off at the bottom of the pot! To make things worse, Zwilling puts the expense of shipping a cast iron pot on the customer if you do not have their store in your province. Will only replace producer and not refund you either. My first Staub purchase will be my last.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great oven, great price Love my Cherry Cocotte. It's a pleasure to cook with, beautiful to look at and it's now a fixture on my cooktop. I got it at a great price as it apparently had 'visual imperfections' but if there are imperfections they're very minor and I wasn't actually able to spot any. It is fairly heavy especially with the lid on - it's fine for me but something to keep in mind - check the specs before you purchase if this is a concern.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great piece! This is my third time ordering a Staub with minor defects - they are fabulous and the price terrific. The « defects » are so minimal they are barely noticeable. I’ve even gifted these.
Date published: 2023-11-22
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing dutch oven! Worth every penny that I spent. The meat comes out so juicy and tender and the lid doesn’t let anything come out. All the goodness stays inside the pot.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Watch out for "visual imperfection" I did not realize the one I picked was a visual imperfection. I'm super upset about that because the non imperfection is the same price
Date published: 2023-12-27
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great purchase Great product, I am very pleased with the item. Really nice colour and I cannot see the imperfections. Super happy with the purchase.

What exactly is meant by "visual imperfections"?  Chips/cracks or just imperfections in the paint process during manufacturing? Thanks!

Asked by: jojo123

Does it still come with lifetime warranty?

Asked by: Arnaud

Where are minor visual imperfections? Inside or outside the cocotte?
