Jgarbee Which gets us to the 'limited' side of that lifetime warranty. First, you must be the original user. You cannot submit your grandmother's Dutch oven for replacement (take a look at the subtle changes in Le Creuset designs over the years; it's pretty easy to tell) or the one you snatched up for $20 at a garage sale. But nice try. According to the website, the warranty also 'does not cover damage from abuse, commercial use or other non-consumer use, neglect, abnormal wear or tear, overheating, or any use not in accordance with the cookware instructions provided with the utensil.'

In other words, if you drop your Dutch oven and break the handle, the full warranty doesn't apply. You can, though, still send it back. We've read about several Le Creuset customers who dropped theirs and qualified for the 75% replacement discount -- you only pay 25% of the retail price.

Still a pretty great deal as Le Creuset is hard to snag at a deep discount. But we did not drop our pot. So how does Le Creuset determine whether the damage to the enamel was our fault? The corporate legalese is, not surprisingly, vague on the website.

A letter to Le Creuset is required detailing what is wrong with the pot; yes, we scripted it carefully. Hey, maybe we'd at least get the 75% discount. After we shipped off the pot, we waited. How long does it takes to boil water for pasta?

Not long in our Dutch oven. When you have to rummage around to find that ridiculously over-sized Williams-Sonoma 'pasta' pot that you still have in a back closet (wedding gift guilt), and then wait for the excessive quantity of water to boil? A lot longer than we remembered. And so on more than one occasion, we emailed the Le Creuset service representative, an incredibly patient woman named Cindy, to check in on our pot. Did they receive it? Was there word on the progress? Has the damage been deemed 'normal wear and tear'?

Without asking the latter specifically -- we all know email exchanges about excessive caramelization can be used against you these days. Ravenhearst 2 Full Version more. Could Cindy tell us ANYTHING? She politely and simply advised us that the mysterious Le Creuset corporate assessment 'process' (determining how well we had treated our pot over the years) takes two to four weeks. We worried that perhaps we really did treat our beloved pot poorly.

We went to the therapist. We ate a lot of salads.
