My Wife just found this new Lodge 5.5 quart Dutch Oven at Walmart for $7.98. I think it was definitely priced wrong. Thoughts?
Is there a difference in quality between a regular Lodge dutch oven vs walmart Lodge model?

Lodge Dutch Oven
I'm replacing my hand me down Lodge dutch oven and wanted to know what the deal is with the model sold exclusively at Walmart. I love my Lodge dutch oven and cast iron skillet, but moreso than brand loyalty - the price is a primary consideration for me in sticking with Lodge (although recommendations are welcome). My main issue with my current traditional Lodge dutch oven is the curved sides create a smaller cooking surface requiring me to cook larger quantities in batches. The Walmart model has straight sides akin to the Le Creuset and Cuisinart dutch ovens that are highly recommended plus it is $20 cheaper. Seems like a win/win scenario, but wanted to ask if there is a noticeable downside / drop in quality considering Walmart's reputation.
Thanks!
