It’s the morning of October 9th, which means we’ve officially hit the final day of Amazon’s epic fall sale. If you’ve been waiting for the October Prime Day Le Creuset Deals to save a little money on your next (or first) piece of this iconic enameled cast-iron cookware, you’re in the right place at just the right time.
Le Creuset is a brand that always has some of the most popular kitchen deals on Prime Day. People go particularly crazy for their enameled cast-iron Dutch ovens, and for good reason: They’re heirloom-worthy kitchen essentials that will last you a lifetime (and then some) if you take good care of them.
Certain sizes and colors of the most coveted item—the Signature Round Dutch Oven—do get marked down a few times a year on Amazon and at other retailers. But if you wait until Black Friday or Cyber Monday to take advantage of a Le Creuset sale, you won’t have your Dutch oven or braiser to use for Thanksgiving. And I don’t know about you, but I can’t do Thanksgiving without my Le Creuset braiser. And at least one Dutch Oven.
A few things to keep in mind as you shop: Amazon’s October Prime Day (or Amazon Prime Big Deals Day, as they call it) only runs through midnight tonight, October 9th. Though some Prime Day sale pricing is available to everyone, the very best Prime Day deals are reserved for Prime members. The good news is that you can become an Amazon Prime member right now with a free 30-day trial (and we won’t judge you if you cancel before the free trial ends). Also, because Le Creuset cookware deals are so popular, sizes and colors often sell out quickly, so if you don’t see what you want, bookmark this story and check back soon because we’ll be keeping an eye on the October Prime Day deals and updating our recommendations until the sale ends at midnight.

Deals on Le Creuset Signature Round Dutch Ovens
Le Creuset enameled cast-iron Dutch ovens (also called cocottes) are highly coveted by home cooks and professional chefs alike. And rightfully so. The high-quality cast iron offers incredible heat distribution and the porcelain enamel is durable enough to last a lifetime if well maintained (while it’s technically dishwasher-safe, your pieces will last longer if you wash them by hand).
A Le Creuset Dutch oven is also endlessly versatile. You can use it on gas, electric, and induction stovetops; it’s oven-safe; and it looks great on any dinner table. I often use mine for sautés and slow cooks, and I prefer a Dutch oven to a stockpot for soups and stews as well. If you get a medium or large size (4.5 quarts or larger), it’s also a perfect vessel for braising, roasting, deep-frying, and more; or, if you truly are planning on using your Dutch oven more for braising and roasting than long-simmered stocks and winter stews, you could also opt for the Signature Wide model, which as more surface area for browning. The brand also offers an oval version of the Signature, which is great for poultry but doesn’t lend itself as much to being used over a burner due to its shape.
