I just got this pot for Christmas, so I haven’t used it yet, but I love this form factor. This is similar to the Le Creuset “round wide” 6.75 dutch oven (my favorite LC piece). I have both pots, and they have about the same searing surface area. The LC pot is 10” diameter circular cooking surface, the Staub is a 9” x 11” oval surface area (measuring the bottoms). So this Staub oval is wider and rounder than the typical Staub 31cm oval. The reason I prefer this one to the normal oval is that I’m on an electric glass top stove, so maximizing surface area on my round hob is preferable to the taller sides. It makes it more versatile for me. It of course can do the longer cuts of meat and battard bread loaves that a 31cm oval will do, but it will also handle a couple extra chicken thighs or short ribs compared to the typical oval. It will also work great for soups or one pot meals that need that extra browning. TLDR: This pot is for anyone who likes ovals, but wishes they had a little more surface area for browning. I might actually make a post comparing the pots Answer from EatinSnax on reddit.com

r/staub on Reddit: Has anyone tried the oval dutch oven with shorter sides?
January 1, 2024 -

I noticed the wide oval dutch oven was on sale at Williams Sonoma. It says 6.5 qt and the ‘original’ oval says 5.75 qt. The sides are shorter and the dimensions look like it would actually hold less.

Anyways, I am wondering if it is better to have the taller sides or if this is a good deal and it doesn’t matter too much? I’m just looking to make roasts, etc. What would the taller sides help better with? Or is the ‘wide oval’ kind of a braiser hybrid?

Please excuse my ignorance I’m still learning!

This is what I’m looking at: https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/1979198/?cm_src=buyitagain&cm_sp=buyItAgain--orderDetails--link

This Staub Dutch Oven Is Still My Favorite Pot of All Time After 14+ Years
October 28, 2022 - My Staub is just as handsome as the day I opened it, and if I were buying my first Dutch oven tomorrow, this is still the one I’d pick. Well, if I could find it anyway. My exact size and color combo doesn’t seem to be available anymore, which is to be expected from something I’ve been using for 14 years. But there are plenty of similar versions. The closest would be the 4.5-quart oval cocotte in Cherry (which also happens to be on major sale!).
