It cooks really well, it has excellent non-stick enamel surface and it is really easy to wash after cooking. It washes effortlessly! I love it and love using it! While I have other enamel cast iron pans that work really well, my new Le Creuset works best and is the easiest to wash. It's a good size and relatively light for its size. Beautiful design as well. The bottom is also perfectly flat, contrary to other cheaper enamelled cast iron pans I've bought before.
