 Very Good Dutch Oven Aug 21, 2009
By Bob Christian
I am very happy with my new Dutch Oven. It is well made and I love the way the lid is made because the lid not only acts as a lid but, if you turn it over and set it on its legs, which are normally on the top of the lid pointing up in the air, and put some coals under it, you can use it as a frying surface to fry eggs, hamburgers etc, or, while acting as a lid on this Dutch Oven you can put hot coals on the top of the lid and set another pot or frying pan on the lid's legs and you have a double decker pot, another pot or frying pan on top of this Dutch oven, and you can be cooking two things at one time and that takes up less cooking space because one is on top of the other.
Putting legs on the top of the lid, as well as on the bottom of the Dutch Oven body, was a great idea and makes the Dutch oven able to multi task cooking.
The Dutch Oven is well seasoned and with a wipe out with cold water it is ready to cook. I am well pleased with it and would recommend it to others.

This Item Is Craaaazy Dec 16, 2009
By G. L. West
I can not tell you how shocked I was when I recieved this item. It is very heavy, well constructed and is more than it was advertised to be. You will not regret buying this dutch oven. I own several others and paid much more for each of them Now I suppose it was for the brand. This brand is just as good if not better than the other ones I paid much more for.

This is Two pieces of useful cookware Aug 25, 2010
By Richard Marshall

First I'll mention that while my oven came with no damage, the lid fits fine, there are no thick or thin walls, but it was made in China. I do not trust the Chinese to have used a safe oil for the preseasoning. They may have used burnt motor oil, lead based paint, or Heaven knows what(?)
I elected to burn off all the oil and re-season everything before eating from it just to be safe.
The oven is well built and very heavy. I give 5 stars since I have no proof that the seasoning is unhealthy and the lid is a dynamic plus feature.
In addition to having 3 legs on top, the inner surface of the lid is perfectly flat with a nice 1 inch rim when used as a griddle. No center dip, as with all others I've seen. This is truly TWO pieces of cookware. The lid also has two side handles to aid in using it as a griddle / fry pan.
The 3 'extra' legs on top also allow for placing another pot or pan on top while baking or roasting in the oven.
While I could have bought a less expensive D.O., the photo of the lid and other good reviews steered me to the Universal. I was very pleased when it came and I saw the inside of the lid was a flat griddle / fry pan.
What puzzles me is that the lid is not complex, yet, as far as I know, this is the only D.O. with such an ideal lid. It seem like someone would have done this long ago(?).

GREAT PIECE OF IRON Apr 03, 2010
By John G. Weidner
I ordered a camping dutch oven, when it came, one of the legs was broken off. Amazon replaced it and the replacement was here 2 days later. It arrived in perfect condition. The DO is a great oven, I used it twice so far. The lid fits perfectly, doesn't rock or is not warped. I highly recommend this DO.

 Good on the inside Oct 08, 2009
By Oregon April

This dutch oven is heavy-duty, and well seasoned on the inside. I like the nubs on top - they allowed me to cook corn bread above my dutch oven chicken. However, the outside is either not seasoned as well, or needs to be tougher in order to endure the camp fire. After one use, the outside is pourous and showing some rust. We are going to treat the outside with engine-block paint, and hope that will ensure a long life for the oven.
