Le Creuset is a lot of things: classic, traditional, reliable, and covetable. The one thing that it isn't is cheap. So, is Le Creuset worth it? I've found some ways to save on the luxury brand as well as some alternatives to Le Creuset.
I grew up in a Le Creuset home. I know, lucky me. We had the bread oven, the dish sets, the bowls, and the mugs. In fact, you name it, my parents had collected it over the years. It was lovely. What wasn't lovely was moving out and trying to work out how I could have a Le Creuset kitchen on a graduate salary. Aldi's Pumpkin Casserole Dish is still one of the best pots that I own, but sometimes it's nice to have some real deal Le Creuset too.
