    Has anyone bought (or being given ) a Stanley Rogers or any other brand (like the 'cheaper' ones from Harris Scarfe, forget what they're called) etc?

    And if so, are they good?

    RoryRory, when you say handle, do you mean the handle on the lid? From what I have been reading, the handle can withstand 180 degrees on the Le Creuset and 200 degrees on the Le Chasseur... I thought the heat ratings related more to the pot.

    Netix, I have no idea about the Stanley Rogers. I did notice on the Le Creuset website, you can call them if you need your pot re-enamelled though.
    I was also looking at the Staub French Ovens because their lid handles are metal.

    Yeah NIc I meant pot lid And I can pretty well say that the heat ratings are related to the pot lid, not the pot itself (asI said, the pizza oven gets VERY hot and I have slow roasted a leg of lamb in there for ages....
