I have the Kitchen Aid ones, they are from Canadian Tire.
I picked up 3 of them. I've had them for about 2.5 years now?

2 of them are in perfect shape since I don't use it that much.
1 of them two small chips in the ceramic on the lid (Lip and underside drip dimples).
1 of them also has some spider web cracks on the inside of the glaze.

I don't think they are amazing for build quality, but if you do a lot of braising like me, they are simply a blessing. They clean pretty easily and the heat retention of the iron does wonders for the browning.

I'm sure a Le Crueset piece might last me for a lifetime, but I picked these up at 60% off. That puts them around the $35-70 price range. I can't go back to not having them.


As for the white truffle, I'm just using a white truffle oil I got from Bosa. It's not the artificial (flavored) one, it's the actual one.

What's this about Peidmont and Alba truffles? I haven't a clue what you're referring to, can you elaborate?
