Title: Batali Enamel cast iron 6 quart pot
Review: The enamel was not coated well on the surface of the cast iron. There are holes that could be either from bad coating or chipping during handling. Either way, the quality control is poor. This pot should be sold as a "second" or "irregular" in secondary markets, not on AMAZON. In addition, the pot is poorly designed. The knob on the cover is too fat in size to provide any insulation from the hot pot cover. It is a severe burn hazard. One really has to heed the advice in the user's manual to use a well-insulated pot holder to handle the cover. However, how many of us actually read the user's manual of a pot before using one? I have also a Le Creuset pot and a Lodge pot. Both have a well designed handle (actually a knob for Le Creuset but a handle for Lodge). The Le Creuset cover is still quite hot to the touch but much better than the Batali pot. The Lodge pot cover can be lifted by its handle without a pot mitten.
