I wouldn’t go that far, but they ripped off the person who gifted me the thing on exchange rate. We live in Europe and she ended up paying something like $100 more than regular price, before duty and VAT. Customer service just stopped responding to her, which I don’t like. If you’re in the US they’re probably nicer.

I also got one as a Christmas gift some years ago and it’s actually really good. I don’t have anything positive to say about the company or their prices but this upside down Dutch oven really can make a huge difference for oven spring.
