Although, usually, Le Creuset pots can go for around £240, we found a special deal where you can get one for just £170 right now at Harrod's site - but you have to act fast!

Don't believe the brand? Just check out some of the user reviews.
"Still like new after 6 months almost daily use. Cooks evenly and cleans easily," one review says.
Another left a more personal review, attesting to its heat retention and quality: "I use this regularly, especially to cook food for my elderly mother. I can prepare the food and leave it to cook slowly whilst I get on with other work. It's easy to clean, too. Once the dish is cold, I leave it to soak in hot water with some washing up liquid. It cleans easily after a while. A great addition to our kitchen."
Le Creuset also sells stainless steel items if that suits your fancy more - but the cast iron pots are what the masses are really. Not only are the Le Creuset cast iron pots incredible reliable and durable, but they also come in a myriad of chic colours - so depending on the colour aesthetic of your kitchen, you can be sure to find a style and colour that works for you.
If you're looking to get into using Le Creuset products, but aren't sure if you're willing to dish out the few hundred pounds, we might recommend trying a product like their Stoneware Heritage Rectangular Dish (£37), which also comes in a variety of chic colourways.
Alternatively, you can check out Aldi's lookalikes to Le Creuset products - which cost hundreds of pounds less than the originals and still get the job done pretty well.
