I must give a shout out to the lovely ladies who helped me today at the Chicago Rosemont outlet! I had never been there before and they fed my curiosity and helped beyond beyond!
I bought this for myself and snagged one in shallot for my sister’s new kitchen! Great deals also on baking casserole sets!
Wow!!
Got this sucker for $240 after tax. Not including the gold heart knob and silicone pot holders

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.
Do the factory to table sale locations always change? I live in the Midwest and first learned about them last year when it was too late to go to the Minneapolis one. Was hoping there would be another one there this year but looks like only in Miami? Any info appreciated! Thanks
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% offHi 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'm going to the outlet to get a dutch oven. I was wondering what else should I get that's highly recommended?
I tried to look on here and Google but couldn’t find an exact list. Where are the outlet locations? I live in Canada (Alberta) but visit the states frequently and would love to visit an outlet!
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’ve read in the past (and seen on this sub) that outlet pieces may not be made with the same quality that are at other retailers (William Sonoma, Sur La Table, etc.). Is this true? Or is this the classic vs signature debate? Looking to purchase a round 7.25 Dutch oven and noticed the price at the outlet was noticeably cheaper than retail and wondered if it’s “too good to be true”. Do the outlet-only colors have any bearing on quality either?
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.
Is $290 pre-tax for the 7.25 dutch oven a good outlet price? I'm doing the legwork b/c I want the right gift for Mother's Day and DH isn't a planner/researcher.
Super excited for my first enameled cast iron Le Creuset pieces!
2 QT Dutch Oven in Dune $163.80 10 1/4 IN Traditional Deep Round Skillet in Dune $142.10
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?
I just recently ordered my first piece of LeCreuset (the wide round in Thyme…that hasn’t even come in yet) Officially bit by the bug 😅 - I was running an errand in Little Rock and found out they had an outlet store! When my interest was originally piqued into LC, I was immediately in love with Ganache - brown is my favorite color! But this has been discontinued as we all know. I’ve heard outlets have disc pieces - so I thought I’d ask! She had ONE Ganache piece in the back, didn’t even have a box. A 2.5 quart French Oven (also called a stew pot) I was hoping it would have been something larger, but was happy to find anything at all. I’m pretty sure I can get great use out of it! The tag on it said $284 - but outlet discount of 30% brought it to $179 ($185 w/ tax) I jumped on it and bought it. I googled on my way home - and I’m see it being sold for $159 at William Sonoma…!(in fact that’s the only place I’m seeing it sold) Like obviously not in Ganache - but did I miss something? Did I get duped/overpay? Am I dumb? Lol I feel like I should have gotten 30% off of $159!! Or at least paid that price. Help! Lol
I can’t speak to the LC pricing structure, but that’s a great price. I have 2, Olive and ganache. One or the other gets used daily.
You were not duped. $159 is a promo price so you would not receive any extra discount off of it. Certain pieces get put on long running promos by LC periodically. Right now it’s the French oven, sauteuse and wide round. Previously, the 7 1/2 qt chef’s oven was on promo for a good while. Add in that ganache is a discontinued color, and I’d say you really lucked out on even obtaining the piece. If you’re still in the market for more pieces, the classic style 9” skillets generally go on sale for $99 just about everywhere during the holidays. There will also be sales on DOs in select colors but usually in the 4.5 qt size and sometimes the larger 7.25 qt. The popular 5.5 qt DO rarely goes on sale widely but people sometimes get lucky and find a one off discount. You will start to understand the LC pricing and sale methodology as you become more familiar with the brand.
