SEATTLE has a great place like this called second use = http://www.seconduse.com/

its fun looking online at the inventory pictures. In person they have a great selection of old keys and faceplates, knobs etc.

every city should have a place like this instead of tossing torn down places into landfills

I bought a STAUB instead of a Le Creuset, and i am so happy I did. The Le Creuset has plastic knobs-cheaper and like lower end. The Staub has metal knobs and high quality. The inside coating of a Staub is superior--- cleans so easily that one wold not believe it. The interior does not chip, the lid has drip bumps that makes basting great. It is FANTASTIC for no knead bread. sturdy Staub and sexy looking. I bought the one with a metal chicken knob- oval so you can fit a whole chicken inside-- its been worth every penny. Im so glad i did not get a Le Creuset that chips and does not clean as nice. The Le Creuset's seem like mass productions, the Staub like a true relic.
If i did not have Staub, i think i might get a Lodge and season it. Staub is the one. worth money in time that you dont have to clean it.

a lot of people saying here that too expensive.... but look at the details-- the exposed plywood lines.... reminds me of the fantastic cabinets of KERF design in Seattle for kitchen and bath

Dont bother with Le Creuset.... the fittings are cheap-- now plastic and they don't have the bumps on the lid for basting. it just seems mass produced at this point,
I just got a Staub and I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is so beautiful and classic, heavy, wonderful. Just lie generations of grandmas handing down their dutch ovens- this is a real classy oven. It was not that much more than Le Creuset, and if you buy it at the right time-- Sur La Table had them on SALE making them too affordable compared to Le Creuset. within $40-- Staub wins hands down.
I got the one with the chicken on top handle-- so cute!! I love it........ my coq a vin is in the oven right now.
Staub is awesome.
