About this product
Get perfectly browned meats, golden fried vegetables, and slow-cooked dinners that taste better the next day. The Habitat 4 ls Shallow Cast Iron Casserole Dish offers versatility with a shallow profile for browning and frying on the hob before oven use. Cast iron heats evenly and holds heat longer, keeping food warmer from hob to table. The tight-fitting lid locks in moisture and flavour, while the gradient chocolate enamel finish looks good enough to serve from the oven.
The generous 4 ls capacity handles everything from midweek chicken suppers to weekend batch cooking for the family. It works on any hob you've got, whether that's gas, electric, ceramic, induction, halogen or solid hotplates. The sturdy handles make it easy to move from hob to oven to table, and it's oven safe up to 260C for all your roasting and slow-cooking needs. The enamel coating inside and out means it's easier to clean than bare cast iron, and it's tough enough to handle everyday use. It's the kind of reliable kitchen essential that earns its place on your hob.

Customers Say
Heavy, sturdy cast iron casserole dish praised for quality, heat retention, and stylish design. Easy to clean but not fully non-stick. Lid handle may loosen; some report enamel flaws and scratching.

Beautiful but won’t last
Sleek looking, heavy and conducts heat well. Unfortunately, after 4 uses (using only wooden utensils), there’s already some scratching and darkening spots inside the pot.

Versatile dish for everyday use - but heavy!
I have used this pan pretty much every day since buying it. It is very heavy but great for casseroles, and large enough for a family meal. It's a lovely classic design, and very versatile.
CleJa, 35 - 44
Very stylish at a fraction of the big brand cost.
Cooks really evenly and cleans up well

It's ok
It is not as non stick as I had hoped it would be, it made scrambled egg of an attempted omlette. I googled 30 cm and this came up but it has 28 cm on the lid, that was disappointing as Argos did not state the size just gave the litres! Stuff does unstick after a short soak. You do need some heat proof mits to move it when it's been on the hob as the handles get super hot.

Enormous and very heavy
This is huge, much larger and heavier than I wanted, so I returned it. It seemed good quality.
