Summary: very cute, perfect for soup and dessert
Comment: This is a very cute petite casserole. I got this on sale for about $16 the other day and am happy with it. (I will explain why I gave it only 3 stars)
I have not used it just yet, but I will probably make some personal size desserts for my husband and he'll love it!
As others have mentioned, it is made in Thailand. I have not seen ones that are made in France so I have nothing to compare it with, but I've purchased Le Creuset remekins that are from Thailand and I believe they are genuine.
The color is not solid blue as shown in the picture, but still cute.
The reason why I gave it 3 stars is because of the weight of it. To be honest, if not because of the sale and the 4 for 3 promotion, I don't think I will purchase this item at this price. It is cute, but the stoneware itself does not feel very solid. I don't think I will put it to the test but its light weight (not super light but just not very heavy) makes me feel that it could chip off or crack from minor accidents in the kitchen. (For those of you who may have already put it to the test, I'd love to hear how your blueberry performed.)
I purchased this mainly for its look so I have no complain. The 3 stars is for general reference in case you want a really sturdy item out of it.
I uploaded a few pictures of it under the product picture in case you want to see the color and size.
Customer Rating: Summary: Disappointment
Comment: I got one of these for my daughter, who's taking French in High School.
As another reviewer noted, the cheap price ones are ugly. Not really blue at all. Nothing like the official product pix.
Also for me, it is not made in France, but in Thailand. If I wanted cheap asian pottery, I can go to any dollar store. I'd be willing to pay 3.99 for this; nothing more.
Le Creuset lost a customer for life. Glad I didn't try a $200 pot. Wonder where in China those are made?
Customer Rating: Summary: extra
Comment: this was an added extra, so I did not really care about it. However, my wife has been using it to bake many delectable dishes for my son. Nice surprise!
Customer Rating: Summary: Beware of lower-priced seconds
Comment: I've been wanting a Petite Blueberry Casserole, but $25 seemed too much for a purchase that's basically frivolous. Then one day I noticed the price was marked down to $19.89 for an unknown reason. The temptation was too great, and I bought one. When it arrived, it was actually larger than I expected after reading some of the reviews. (I've posted two photos of the casserole next to a soda can so you can get a better idea of the actual size.) But what I really noticed was the odd color band around the center of the casserole. The official photos indicate the center is supposed to be a lighter shade than the blueberry color on the top and bottom, but this was so light that the color could best be described as lilac. I hadn't seen a blueberry casserole in person before this, so I didn't know if it's supposed to be that color. But it doesn't look attractive at all. There was also a blemish that looked like a fingerprint pressed into the surface of the lid. I have returned the casserole for a refund. Interestingly, it wasn't eligible for a replacement -- only a refund. Now, I can't say for certain that there's a relationship between the reduced price and the reduced quality, but now I know that if something that's never been on sale is suddenly on sale, this buyer will beware.
Customer Rating: Summary: Great piece, lousy retailer
Comment: The piece is beautiful, great for deserts or other individual servings of dishes. Wonderful if you have vegetarian or vegan friends and you want to make variations of the main dish for them.
This arrived with a chip on one of the leaves. It was a holiday present and I did not inspect it before wrapping. When we discovered that it was damaged, we tried to exchange it. After numerous un-answered voice mail and email messages, we were informed that it was past the 14 day period that they allowed for exchanges.
Lovely piece, but try to find it from someone other than The Kitchen Clique.
