STAUB0.5-qt Petite Ceramic, Oven & Stove Safe up to 572°F, Pumpkin Dish, Baking , Candy Dish, Burnt Orange

I have a few Staub items including various sizes of Dutch ovens and have love them all. I was looking for a dish for serving 2 cups of soup or chili for dinner. I have another set of these that I measured what they would hold. Since they would hold about 12 ounces comfortably, I ordered the .5 quart size (16 oz) thinking they would hold 2 cups. As it turned out the .5 qt. size is the same as what I have which is smaller than I wanted. Although they do hold 16 oz., the measurement is to the brim. My husband like to add crackers to both soups and chili, so the 16 oz. size wouldn't work.I decided to return the 16 oz. size and ordered the .75 qt. (24 oz.) hoping they weren't too large. This size is perfect. I can serve 2 cups of soup or chili and there is enough space above the food to comfortably top the dish with crackers, cheese, or whatever else without fear of it spilling over.I very much like all of the Staub products as they are very durable as I have had many of the pieces I have for over 8 years, and they still look like new. The Staub Dutch ovens can be used on the stove top as they are made of porcelain coated cast iron, but they can not be used in microwave. The ceramic pieces, such as these, can be use in the microwave and oven, but not on the stove top. I have never had a problem with the finish scratching or chipping on any of the Staub products I have. Although they are very easy to clean by hand, my husband does the cleanup after meals and puts them in the dishwasher. I personally believe the Staub products rival the much more expensive brand offered which I also have.I do very much recommend this set of cocottes, but be mindful that the capacity stated as it is to the brim. If you need any space at the top, I suggest you order the next size up.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Great decorative item for Halloween or Thanksgiving. Can use for nuts, candy, soups, etc. Not large but has big presence

Beautiful cassolette pot and just the right size for one or two. I love cooking and serving in attractive dishes, and this is perfect to serve with my Black and Tan stoneware. I have larger Staub baking dishes, but they’re too large for my everyday baking.I can also serve dips, sauces, and garnishes for curries when serving a crowd.

I know this product is made in China, which I don’t typically associated with this company, but it is made surprisingly well, worthy of the Staub name. I use it to make several dishes, I even cook/bake sticky rice in it and comes out beautifully. Love the look of this product and it delivers when it comes to using it for culinary purposes.

The color and design are very adorable and cute. It was perfect used for one serving soup or cereal. It has a cute lid to hold temperature better in microwave. The frozen veggies were cooked with perfect texture in this cocotte. I look forward to use for pumpkin soup for this fall! Grazie mille, Staub

Cute, adorable, and perfect for the fall! Holds heat perfectly and for the price compythe the name brand super expensive one, by far this wins! Staub life!

We purchased these for French onion soup, option for the .75qt over the .5qt. The size is absolutely perfect for an individual hearty bowls of soup. We look forward to purchasing again, once we've got our kitchen better organized, because it would be great to have friends over. We're a gothy/autumn centered household so the style is also a nice nod to that without being too in your face.

I bought these to round out my existing collection of Staub 16 oz. rustic ivory pumpkin cocottes. I had 8, and I wanted another 4 to be able to serve a table of 12 guests. I was excited to find them on Amazon, as they'd sold out everywhere online since Staub stopped producing them in the early 2020's. They must've decided to start production again, as these were immensely popular. When they arrived, however, it became abundantly clear that these are a much cheaper reproduction. The details are less defined and sloppy. Plus, almost more baffling, they're noticeably BIGGER than the older version, even though they're both listed as 16 oz. And I'm not mistaking them for the larger 24 oz. version. These are supposed to be 16 oz. I thought they might be a counterfeit item, but there were the standard Staub leaflets inside that you'll find accompanying any Staub purchase. Absolutely bizarre, and not a good look on Staub. These are priced cheaper than the originals were, and I can certainly see why. For any long-term, loyal Staub customer, these are a hard pass.
