Le Creuset has been at the top of our recommendation lists for years. The brand’s time-tested cookware and bakeware have consistently seared, baked, braised, and roasted a notch above the competition. While we think Le Creuset is always worth the investment, it’s a thrill to catch discounts on our favorite items that have performed well in tests. During Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, Le Creuset is discounting its Dutch oven, cast iron skillet, braiser, and more cookware pieces that are worth grabbing ahead of peak roasting and stewing season, starting at just $25.

The Best Amazon Le Creuset Deals, at a Glance:

Le Creuset 5.5-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Round Dutch Oven

Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Signature Round Dutch Oven, 5.5 qt., Cerise

Amazon

No, we’ll never get tired of recommending the Le Creuset Dutch oven. It’s been our top Dutch oven pick for years thanks to its impeccably even heating and proven durability. The classic 5.5-quart Dutch oven is on rare sale for $100 off.

This classic braiser shallow-fried the competition in our tests with its flared sides and wide bottom. It also has roomy handles that make it comfortable to carry from stovetop to oven to dinner table. During our tests, it was able to evenly sear meatballs across its entire surface. The Flame colorway is currently on sale for 15% off.

Le Creuset Stoneware Heritage Set

Amazon Le Creuset Stoneware Heritage Set 3 Rectangular Dishes

Amazon

While the Le Creuset casserole dish was not our top pick, who can resist a baking dish set on sale? We still thought it was beautiful and it still offers the even heat retention that Le Creuset is known for, so this set of three baking dishes is a deal at 31% off.

Le Creuset 9-Inch Cast Iron Handle Skillet

Amazon Le Creuset Classic Cast Iron Handle Skillet

Amazon

Capable of reaching high, even temperatures quickly, the Le Creuset cast iron skillet is $20 off and a favorite of several Serious Eats editors. During our tests, it seared steak beautifully and cooked up perfect over-easy eggs.

Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Bread Oven

Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Bread Oven, Licorice

Amazon

The Le Creuset bread oven is a unitasker that does its one task very well. In our review, we found it easier to load and unload loaves using this bread oven than in a traditional Dutch oven. It also browned crusts faster.

Le Creuset 7.5-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Chef's Oven with Glass Lid 

Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Chef's Oven with Glass Lid

Designed for handling larger batches of food, this 7.5-quart cast iron oven offers the same excellent heat retention and distribution that Le Creuset is known for but in a vessel with wide, sloped sides that allow for smooth stirring. It also has a glass lid so you can easily track the progress of your foods inside. Right now, it’s 28% off.

Le Creuset Stoneware 12-Ounce Pumpkin Petite Cocotte

Le Creuset Stoneware Figural Pumpkin Petite Cocotte, 12 oz., Meringue

Amazon

As we enter peak fall season, it’s only fair to say that pumpkin-shaped cookware deserves a spot in any festive kitchen. Associate editorial director Riddley Gemperlein-Schirm confesses that she “wants one of these HORRIBLY” and we don’t blame her.

Le Creuset Enamel On Steel Demi Tea Kettle

Le Creuset Enamel On Steel Demi Tea Kettle with Metal Finishes, 1.25 qt, Sea Salt

Amazon

A smaller version of one of our favorite stovetop kettles, this demi kettle from Le Creuset boils water at lightning speed thanks to its carbon steel construction. Right now, it’s on sale for less than $70

Le Creuset 8-Ounce Mini Round Cocotte with Flower Lid

Le Creuset Stoneware Mini Round Cocotte with Flower Lid, 8oz., Meringue

Amazon

Our commerce writer (that’s me, An!) has two of these and they are some of her favorite cookware pieces. These mini cocottes are essentially ramekins with handles and lids and add a touch of whimsy to your single-serve oatmeal, chocolate cakes, and bread puddings.

Le Creuset 3.75-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Signature Cassadou

Amazon Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Signature Cassadou, 3.75qt., Cerise

Amazon

Half-pan and half-pot, this Le Creuset cassadou is similar to a braiser or Dutch oven, but it has a long handle on one side and a looped handle on the other for easy maneuvering around the kitchen. Similar to a sauté pan, the cassadou offers a wide bottom and shorter sides for searing a larger amount of food without trapping too much steam.
