I got my first piece, a first quality, 3.5 quart braiser at more than half off in the outlet. You do need to keep in mind that the outlets stock the Classic line, and the website stocks the Signature line. So there are some stylistic differences and not all colors will be the same.

I really want to start investing in a few LC pieces but there are no le creuset outlets in Canada (to the best of my knowledge)

Fortunately I live pretty close to the US border and was considering driving into Washington state to go to an outlet. However, it is a 1.5-2hr drive one way so I’m wondering if it is worth the trip down.

I've saved 30-40% off at outlets before.

Hi all! There is an outlet LeCreuset store 1 hour drive away from home. I have never been there, and wondering if anyone purchases from such stores. I understand product availability will differ with each location.

I think it’s worth it to explore, shop and make a connection. The outlet associates can be invaluable when looking for a specific piece and I’ve been hooked up on the price before. I like to shop though. Maybe you don’t?

I live an hour from the Signature Conroe store and an hour (in a different direction) from the Cypress Outlet. I prefer the outlet! It’s an adventure and you never know what they’ll have. Now, if you have something specific in mind, maybe not. But if you’re up for a good deal, go for it.

January 13, 2023 - Came to say exactly this. Long gone are the days of outlet stores selling slightly imperfect merchandise. They create low quality merchandise specifically for outlets. If Le Creuset outlets do it the old way, kudos to them.

r/LeCreuset on Reddit: Le Creuset Outlet Help

September 21, 2025 -

I am new to the Le Creuset world and looking to buy my first piece. I have 2 outlet stores near me so yesterday I shopped around to see what would be the best fit for my household. I usually cook for 3 people but do like to host so thinking something within the 4-5 people range. Initially I thought about a brasier, but a Dutch oven would be nice for soup/stew. The sales associate then pointed me to the wide oven. I think the wide oven would be a good option, but I wasn’t ecstatic about the classic vs signature. In the back of the picture you can see they had 2 signatures, each at $258, while the classic is $232. The sales associate wouldn’t look for other colors at other outlets but I’m curious if there are any employees here who would look in the system? Located in the DMV area current but know outlets will ship if you ask them to.

The Round Wide dutch oven is my favorite. I personally prefer the larger handles of the Signature line versus the Classic, and if you want to use the Classic in the oven, you need to upgrade the knob to a metal one. That alone justifies the price difference to just buy the Signature one, if you can.

Yeah, whoever that was at the outlet, was being selfish. They absolutely CAN check the system for stock at other stores, but in doing so they may lose that sale (although arguably they may gain a loyal customer in return). I'll PM you some other outlets' info - there are several managers who I especially enjoy shopping with, and the outlets are able to send a payment link via email for phone orders, so it's totally secure.

r/LeCreuset on Reddit: Is le creuset outlet the same quality?

September 11, 2024 -

I’ve had bad experiences buying shoes from outlet stores and clothes with their being manufacturing errors or things they don’t meet QA testing is it the same with Le Creuset?

We have an outlet mall in town with a le creuset store and my girlfriend loves the green cookware.

Yes. The outlet stores USED to have a difference between signature and classic/traditional line. They were different handles (smaller vs larger) and came with the black knobs vs the metal knobs. This does not affect performance unless you need the metal knobs for higher oven temps. But knobs are easily purchased and swapped. Now, the outlet will have a table of "seconds". This is second choix foods that did not last the quality check in terms of VISUAL/COSMETIC imperfections. This does not affect the quality of the cookware. Usually it's a paint transfer flaw. The outlets also will have the same specials. There are usually 1-2 pieces that are on sale at every LC retailer. Right now I believe it's the sauteuse and the 6.75 wide round. What the outlet specializes in is discontinued pieces and colors. Whether it's sizes of colors. My local outlet rep said they stopped making the classic line anyways. There are still pieces there but they are focusing on just the signature line as a whole company. You might be able to find some olive, kiwi, or bamboo (all fun hard to find greens!)

I have noticed a difference in quality for some items.

r/LeCreuset on Reddit: Outlet vs retail quality

July 7, 2023 -

Are the Le Creuset outlet pieces the same quality as the "standard" line you would get at Williams Sonoma or Costco? I know some of the outlet pieces have plastic knobs instead of metal/stainless stel, but what about the handles? They seem a bit thiner in the outlet version than in the store. Anyone here own both types of pieces? Thanks!

I spoke with the outlet manager nearby and she said that the enamel is the same between the two lines which to me is the main consideration regarding quality. Now, when it comes to classic vs signature, it's a style choice of which you like (seems to mainly affect the handles and knobs). Classic line pieces will have the less heat resistant knobs that can be easily changed out if you're going to be cooking at a higher temp than the default specification. The classic line tends to not have the wide loop handles that are pretty standard on the signature line. I have both pieces from the classic line and signature line. My most used piece is a classic 5 qt braiser that I recently switched out the knob to a more heat resistant black knob (not the flat black one which is standard). My second and third most used pieces are a signature dutch oven and a signature skillet. They all work great. In the end, get the design that you prefer and are willing to pay for. If you don't have a preference for the looped handles that are typically found on the signature line, save some money by getting a classic line piece at a discount from the outlets and switch the knob.

r/LeCreuset on Reddit: Le Creuset outlet finds; I was surprised to find so much that isn’t the classic line!

November 1, 2024 - If I remember correctly. They are slowly phasing out the classic line and it's just going to be the signature line at outlets. Where the outlets shine will be discontinued pieces(colors and pieces) as well as a table of seconds choix.

I stopped by the outlet to see what they have on sale today. The entire store is 35% but a lot of 40% and 50% off. Do you see anything you would buy? I picked up the Cerise and Marseille batter bowls for $26 each.

40% off 50% off

I’m a sucker for the minis with black knobs.

I'd love to be near a store to get that matt black teapot instead of paying through the nose via Ebay. It would join the others and look quite handsome.

I got an e-mail from Le Creuset that there is a 25% off sale "storewide" at the LC outlets this month. Can anyone confirm if it's truly the entire store? Because I'd love to pick up a bread oven for $75 off, but I don't want to drive an hour to the outlet to find out there are actually all kinds of items excluded...

I received the same email. Would recommend that if you're looking for specific items to call the outlet store ahead of a trip - that way you can confirm stock and sale items. They'll also ship! Good luck -

It’s not everything in the store, only most items. I was in an outlet yesterday and asked about the bread oven specifically. They told me the bread oven was not part of the sale. 😕

Does anyone know if the provenance pedal braiser is available in any of the Le Creuset outlets in Canada? In particular, the one in Winnipeg?

I do not know about that. But they do have it at Maison Lipari if you just need to find one. On sale.

We don't have outlets, just signature stores, but many of them do have petal braisers. They're cheaper to order through Consiglios or Williams though!

I'm going to the outlet to get a dutch oven. I was wondering what else should I get that's highly recommended?

It depends entirely on what you actually need and how you cook. If you're already going for a dutch oven, maybe a braiser or everyday pan?

If you can, snap a couple pictures, please. I love to see what the outlets in other places have! I would say a braiser, if they have a good deal on a color you like. I’d also suggest checking Wayfair. They are still having some incredible deals for members. The savings more than make up for the cost of the membership. Like this wide round that I should just buy, but still haven’t… yet.

So I’m a Canadian and every time I travel to the US I try and stop at an outlet store. They don’t carry the same things as what I can see online from the LC.com site. Are there any shops that do?

They have some LC signature boutiques but I think only a few. Williams Sonoma, Crate & Barrel, Sur La Table are some big brick and mortar retailers that carry the items in store. There are others too. Of course none will have the entire selection as the LC website, but you can always look on their sites to check if items are in stock at specific locations

The outlets usually carry a lot of colors and pieces that aren’t in their current catalog online, you can always find some pretty colors that have been discontinued, also check to see if they’re having a sale, who knows? it might influence your decisions if it’s good enough 😉

r/LeCreuset on Reddit: Episode in Le creuset outlet store

November 12, 2022 -

Went to a official Le creuset outlet store today, and wanted to pick up a piece.

When i was about to buy it, the cashier said they sold 2nd Pick pieces and 1st pick

The second picks had broken surface, and the 1st picks was about 20% higher in price. Has anyone experienced this? I ended up leaving.

Edit: i was shown the 1st right after i had decided to purchase. I was the 2nd pick who was the shown price

I think you misunderstood. The outlets sell primarily first quality pieces from the "Classic" line. They also sell some "Second Choix" pieces at an additional discount. Those pieces have cosmetic flaws that will not affect performance. They are also clearly marked. I have several first choice outlet pieces. I also have one "second choix". It was marked with an orange Le Creuset sticker on the pot. I spent a long time studying the pot for the damage. (It's a multipurpose pot). I finally found a small scratch on the underside of the helper handle. It disbelief even go through the first layer of enamel -- just the shine. The outlet isn't selling defective goods.

This is normal and not sketchy behavior. It’s highly transparent which items are which. I think in the US there are outlet malls where some things aren’t seconds they’re just manufactured entirely for the outlet in a cheaper way - basically companies making their own knock offs. LC isn’t doing that, they’re using the outlet as an outlet. The best thing is they can accept international returns when sig stores cannot/do not. In our area, outlet malls are very commonly frequented by resellers working in Asia so we get amazing deals on the LC they return locally from abroad. It’s where many of my international pieces came from. As long as it exists in the catalogue an outlet will process the return. They even have had special edition pots long after they sold out.

Hi all, just wanted to give everyone a heads up about the outlets…I went yesterday and the saleswoman was able to order an artichaut 5.5 round Dutch oven (signature) with outlet pricing, so I ended up paying $285 (25% off plus an extra $30 off coupon she had). I know some people are hesitant since the outlets may not carry your colors, but with them being able to order items, it really changes the game! The outlet I went to was at the North Georgia premium outlets, but it seems like they can all do this.

I work at an outlet and can confirm we can order anything online and have it shipped to you. Free shipping over $250. And you get whatever percentage off we have in stores. Also if we are out of stock on an item we usually carry you get free shipping. Just ordered a honey pot for a customer from warehouse. 35% off plus free shipping because we were out of the item.

Interesting - I was just at an outlet last week and they told me they don't carry signature items and that was the end of that. Was there some special promotion at your outlet, or were they sharing with you a friends/family discount or something?

r/LeCreuset on Reddit: Outlet price difference?

November 15, 2021 -

Hello all! I’m looking to get my first Dutch oven and I was wondering if anyone has a good idea of how the outlet prices differ from the normal store prices? Thanks!

They are slightly cheaper (sticker price) for things like their cast iron/stoneware but they will also run sales that are usually deeper than their website. An example is that their heart cocotte in 2qt has a suggested price of $235.00. Their sticker says the outlet price is $212.00. They also ran a sale that said the heart cocotte was 25% off. Bonus all around, right? If you are looking for a specific piece, give the outlet a call and they can assist you with regards to their inventory. I'm not sure if they all do this but the one I go to also ships (they base it on the $ spent, not the weight). Hope this answers your questions and happy hunting for your first piece.

To give you a good example I purchased the Cerise 2qt heart cocotte a few months ago at the outlet for 100$. It was the older version of course but now the new one that looks pretty similar is 200$ this year. So you can definitely find steep discounts at the outlet! The discounts at the outlet can definitely range. I think the best discount I saw recently at an outlet was a section that was 60% off. Another thing to note is the outlets carry a lot of the classic collection which is priced lower than the signature collection.

I live less than 2hrs away from the NY and NJ outlets and right now they have an extra 30% off all cookware in Cerise (on top of the already discounted price) for Valentines Day. I was really hoping to collect cool tones (blues, greens, purples, grays), but the price is really tempting for the Cerise. Do the outlets have sales like this often on other colors?

OP even though the deals are 30% OFF. The fact that you live close to 2 hours away from the outlets you should factor in the amount of gas it will cost you round trip along with wear and tear on your car and your time. That's quite a long drive (nearly 4 hours) when you don't know for sure what the outlet will have as well as the imperfections that come along with them. Just offering you some food for thought.

I live about 30 minutes away from an outlet and at least the one near me does decent sales on almost every holiday.

How do outlet prices compare to purchasing directly from LeCreuset (besides just saving shipping, of course)?

I’d like to buy a pumpkin cocotte in Rhône when it comes out this fall, and I’m wondering if there would be any advantage (aka discount 😅) from me buying from an outlet, as long as they have Rhône in stock, of course. Also would anyone here have any specific experience with the outlets in the Philadelphia area?

Thanks in advance! 🤗

You can ask. Usually if it’s not on sale at the outlet, you’re not going to be able to get it at a discount if you order from them. It depends on what sale they are running. A lot of the time, especially desirable pieces are not on sale. Think petal braiser, pumpkins, flamme doree pieces, etc.

So I was actually just at the outlet yesterday and for items that were not on sale, they did let slip that their specific outlet mall offered a coupon that COULD be used on regularly priced items. This was specific to the mall in Wrentham, MA but could apply to other outlets that are attached to wider outlet malls. They said you sign up directly with the mall to receive their coupons. Happy pumpkin hunting, I’ll be joining you shortly.

Does anyone know if the pricing is drastically different than a regular outlet store?

I am interested in going to the FtT sale but I wonder if buying a ticket is worth it.

Yes. The Le Creuset outlets carry primarily the Classic line which is slightly less expensive than the signature line. They have sales -- generally on a particular color, or a style of pot. An FTT sale is going to have Classic and Signature pieces, as well as styles that may not be common and everything is on deep, deep discount.

When there was the same style of item (balti dish, paella pan, classic Dutch oven) I noticed FTT was about 10% cheaper and had a larger selection of colors. The last day they also dropped prices on a lot of things - some things went from 40 to 50% off - but the color and style options were a lot more limited at that point. Overall I was not blown away at the prices, but I was able to find a lot of things I’d never seen before at a price I was willing to pay. The exception being the mystery box which was 1000% worth it.
