It\u2019s a fair question as you won\u2019t find many brands that are as closely comparable as these two. However, there are differences which I will take you through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I suspect that you are here for the cast iron cookware comparisons. Le Creuset are such a big lifestyle brand that they now cover more areas than cast iron. They are also producers of ceramics, stainless steel and silicone accessories. This comparison will focus solely on the cast iron offerings of the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"pk-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pk-col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"cocotte-staub-vs-le-creuset-what-do-they-make\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cocotte Staub vs Le Creuset- What do they make? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Le Creuset is the ore established of the two and clearly have a head start.

Therefore, to compare the two, I will focus on their cocotte\/Dutch oven offering. This allows you to really see where they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, the cast iron products they both make are;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Dutch ovens \/ Cocottes<\/li><li>Braisers<\/li><li>Skillets<\/li><li>Frying pans<\/li><li>Grills<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pk-col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-990 size-full\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen.jpg\" alt=\"staub vs. le creuset america's test kitchen\" class=\"wp-image-990\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-90x90.jpg 90w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-130x130.jpg 130w, https:\/\/www.dutchovenscookware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/staub-vs.-le-creuset-americas-test-kitchen-360x360.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Staub vs. Le Creuset America&#8217;s test kitchen<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"staub-vs-le-creuset-which-brand-makes-the-best-dutch-oven\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Staub vs Le Creuset: Which Brand Makes the Best Dutch Oven?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When we talk about Dutch ovens, any talk comes down to two brands\u2026Staub vs Le Creuset. They are at the pinnacle of Dutch oven making setting the standards that others can only dream of. They have a lot in common. Both are French for a start\u2026something France can be very proud off&#8230;but they both offer similar promises. Great construction is a given, fantastic cooking performance and a quality experience that others will find difficult to match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have done a full review on the benefits of both these Dutch ovens in my Best Dutch oven test. I tested a number of Dutch ovens and listed my top 5, of which Staub and Le Creuset both feature.
