Hurry—Le Creuset Launched an Early Presidents Day Sale With Dutch Ovens, Mugs, and Bakeware Up to $140 Off

Kitchens are an important part of a home. And if you cook a lot, it's even more crucial to stock yours with cookware, bakeware, and dinnerware that will stand the test of time. No one likes nonstick pans that get scratched after a few uses, mixing bowls that suddenly shatter, or dinner plates that chip after one meal. To feed you and your family day and night, you'll want to depend on durable kitchen workhorses that are worth the investment.

When it comes to investment-worthy brands, we can't think of one more iconic than Le Creuset. The French cookware brand is known for its incredibly sturdy, do-it-all Dutch ovens—yet also for its high prices. That's why it's always a good idea to shop Le Creuset when it offers rare discounts, and right now it's having an early Presidents Day sale with 8-quart Dutch ovens up to $140 off.

To buy: $300 (was $440); lecreuset.com.

Le Creuset's famous Dutch ovens are made of enameled cast iron that offers even heating but doesn't require constant seasoning like pure cast iron skillets. It's easy to clean and resistant to stains, chips, and cracks, and it's compatible with all cooking surfaces—including induction stoves. It's also oven-safe in temperatures up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. The stick-resistant porcelain means you can hand wash it without too much elbow grease, but you can even toss it in the dishwasher on busy days.

The Dutch ovens also come with lids, so you can cover your bakeare when you want to prevent burning your roasted vegetables and meats or want to lock in moisture. We can already think of so many recipes you'll want to use this versatile pot for—imagine unveiling roast chicken thighs with potatoes, hearty mac and cheese, warm beef stew, and even no-knead bread from this dish.

The 8-quart Dutch oven isn't the only item you should grab on sale: Le Creuset's 3.5-quart sauteuse that has sloping sides and a bigger surface area than the Dutch oven is on sale for as little as $180. The sauteuse pan is ideal for braising, simmering, sauteing, and frying, and it's just as durable and easy to wash as the brand's Dutch oven.

Want something even smaller? Mini round cocottes (French for casserole dishes) that are just the right size for individual pot pies, soufflées, and easy desserts such as berries and cream are just $20 each.

That's not all—Le Creuset's square baking dishes, cast iron cookware sets, mugs, and nonstick bakeware sets are all on major sale. Since the brand rarely puts its cookware and bakeware on sale, you'll want to take advantage of the deals fast. Shop more of Le Creuset's early Presidents Day discounts below.
