Le Creuset Stoneware Heritage Oval Au Gratin, 24 oz. (8"), Cerise

These are pretty small, but a perfect size for an individual dessert, side dish, or casserole. We have a favorite casserole with layers of stuff, topped by a good size heap of panko crumbs and Parmesan, so we're really using about 125% capacity. Not maybe large enough for something that's "soupier" and won't stand up for itself, but these are great for certain uses, and the only dishes we could find that weren't TOO big for what we wanted. When served, they also look quite elegant. We have two red and two of the cobalt color.Ken - Author of The Pellet Stove Almanack: Home Heating Joins the 21st Century

I love this pan. I broke my previous one and just had to replace it. It is the perfect size for 2 person meals. Goes in the oven and under the broiler and fits so many different foods.

Perfect size for individual servings

boy did I mis judge, lol Its alot smaller than anticipated, maybe the size of my chihuahua food bowl.But oh well, its a good product, will find a different use than intended

Nice design,and durable,but much too tiny for practical use.

A few years back, my husband surprised me with my first piece of Le Creuset-a 6 3/4 qt dutch oven-and started a time of great fun, delight and experimentation with cooking. Now, I have become a collector of Le Creuset as it is impossible not to fall in love with. I believe that every piece is pure genius, and the the stoneware is no exception. The form is inviting, the handles decorative and extremely functional in that they are hollowed out underneath making them lighter and just the right nestling place for fingertips. These gratins are the perfect size for individual main dishes that come straight out of the oven, to the table, to the sink for super easy clean-up. Plus, they are NOT White, which is important to me and others who love color. They come in a full rainbow of choices, and the inside is a lovely pinkish bisque color.They are truly perfection, and I wouldn't mind getting the smaller ones for desserts too!! Worth every penny and every bit heirloom quality--start you're new love affair with cooking and get them!

This dish is so small, it looks way bigger in photos. It is smaller than my hand. Also be careful, the measurements they list is from handle to handle so the actual dish will maybe fit a few grapes in it. I tried to cancel the order (which they give the option to do so) shortly after ordering, days before it shipped and they still shipped it anyway. To return it, they charge you $5.99 to ship it back. I expected more from such a reputable company. Would not purchase from Le Creuset again. Very disappointed to pay $22 for a dish this small.

Based on other reviews I was worried that this was going to be small, but it's actually large enough for side dishes or small batches of baked food. The interior of the dish is 16x25cm at the bottom and 20x29cm at the top.
