What we liked
- + A shallow base makes it easy to place dough, and the dome lid is described as allowing the loaf to expand upward.
- + The tight-fitting lid is described as trapping steam for a crisp, golden crust, and it is oven safe to 500F.
- + Enameled cast iron with a matte black interior is described as easy to clean, and it works on all cooktops.
Trade-offs
- - It is enameled cast iron, not the stoneware or ceramic of a classic cloche, so it is heavier and holds more heat.
- - At about $50 it costs more than a basic stoneware dome, and hand washing is recommended.
