Pros
Pro Extremely lightweight
The Granite Ware Covered Casserole is made from carbon steel coated in porcelain and weighs only 1.9 lbs - extremely lightweight for a pot holding 5 quarts. It has two medium-sized handles on the sides, comfortable to hold on to even when wearing thick oven mitts. This makes the pot easily maneuverable even for people with arthritis or generally weak wrists. It also reduces the chances of getting burned or the dish slipping from the hands of the cook.
Pro Suitable for browning food on the stovetop and then finishing the meal in the oven
This casserole is safe to use on all stovetops (except the ceramic glass) as well as in the oven. The dish can handle temperatures of up to 450 °F, but should not be put on the grill or under the broiler.
