The Staub 4QT is an enameled cast iron Dutch oven sized for sides, small braises, bread and two-person stews. Its flat lid carries self-basting spikes that drip juices back over the food, and the matte black interior is made to brown meat hard before it braises. It goes on any stovetop, including induction, and the pot handles up to 900F without the lid. Against Le Creuset it is heavier and darker inside, with a flatter lid and no light interior to watch browning; owners tend to prefer its browning and its look, and some find the 4-quart size limiting for a family.

Owners rate the Staub highly for even heat, good browning and a lid that keeps braises moist. Common complaints are the weight and the small capacity for larger households.
The Staub 4 qt Dutch oven is made of cast iron. It has a heavy, tight-fitting flat lid that retains moisture. Spikes on the underside of the lid return juices evenly onto the food during cooking, so food stays moist and flavorful.
The interior has a matte texture that browns food well. The smooth enamel bottom works on all stovetops, including gas, electric, glass ceramic, induction and halogen. The pot is dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended.
