6 3/4 oval or round le crueset french oven? Hi, I'm buying my husband a 6 3/4 le crueset french oven for xmas but wonder which size is more versatile - oval shape or round?

The general recommendation is round for more stove top use and oval for oven use, as most people have round burners on their stoves it should heat more evenly. I think the oval fits roasts and birds better. I have the oval but I also have a gas stove with a long center burner. Either way you can't go wrong!

No, it will not work in your oval dutch oven. The dimension are 9 3/4" Diameter X 5 1/8 Deep, Handle measures 8" L X 6 1/2" H. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your prompt response. What a bargain the Granite Ware is compared to Le Creuset and other pans!

I don't know about a smaller version of this toaster oven, but I saw the same version of this in red in a Fingerhut catalog recently. Personally, I really like the 6-slice version because of the large, round pizza option. I use mine all the time to bake in and am very satisfied with the results. Hope this helps.

There are recipes out there for a 12 cup Bundt pan probably on the Food Channel site. There are also recipe books specializing in bundt cakes that call for this size. You will need to spend some time at the library or book store to check out these recipes. A lot of the boxed mixes specify the size of the bundt pan you should use. Anyway, if you are still afraid of over flow, a) you can bake it on a lined cookie sheet or like a jelly roll pan that has a lip or b) cut back on the batter and experiment a little bit c) call Nordic Ware customer service and discuss it with their support department. Their number is on line. Nordic Ware is a great product. I think you'll like it... super reliable. I'm never disappoint with any of the ones I have. Good Luck!

It comes in different shapes and sizes so make sure you choose the shape and size you would like and it should arrive as so, did for me! I ordered oval that's what I received it isn't very think though...

Buy the oval shape. Most guides recommend adding ten inches to each end for length and 10 inches on each side for width. This is fine and looks nice when not in use. However, I find the ten inch overhang leaves a lot of tablecloth in the diners' laps when eating and I prefer to add six inches to each side to be functional although it does not look as formal.

Hello Craig, I purchased this for a Splendid round pressure cooker and it works wonderfully. I pulled it out to see if it could be used oval and it didn't seem to loose it's shape integrity. The package shows oval. Hummmm. I really wish I could help you more but I really don't know. Best regards, Tamara

The item I purchased is a classic waffle maker. It makes round, four segment waffles. All-Clad's Belgian makers are rectangular or square. Not sure if they make a classic square model.

The shape of the 2 pots. The dutch oven seems larger , but it is a deeper pot (high sides). Then the shape is different.Both pots are good pots.

Hi: We just bought one of these and love it. The circle is 3 1/2 inches across the middle. The crimped edge has elongated dots all around it making a scalloped edge . It would be perfect to make pierogies, except they would be round. We went to a football game and made egg salad, tuna salad and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and the dough stayed in place. I hope this answeres your question. If you make the pierogies, let me know how they turn out and we will try them for Christmas. Good luck!! PAT

Actually i looked for the same thing when i made the purchase however there was not a size but a shape and what you are looking at fit most toilet bowls. It looked at round vs oval. This fit the toilet bowl in hospital and my home toilet. Not sure if this answered your question.

I use a 17 3/4 x 12 7/8 sheet cake pan. This slides along the sides the same as the racks. This was one of the things I was most concerned about when I considered this purchase. I was also concerned about some negative reviews. PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO PURCHASE THIS OVEN. I have had this for several weeks now and I use it almost every day. When I first started it up the fan did not work on the convection part, that is simply due to it being new. After a couple of tries, the newness wore off and it works just fine now. Also, if your 9x13 pan doesn't have handles it will fit just fine.I would buy this again in a heart beat. I use a 17 3/4 x 12 7/8 sheet cake pan. This slides along the sides the same as the racks.

I used to have a round one but now I have the oval. Definitely liked the round better. Seems like the oval is distorted.

I love this little oven. You can do anything a big oven can do,-Just on a smaller scale. It can fit one slice of a large pizza at a time. Because there is no window, each time you open it to look inside you will lose some of the temperature you selected..but it will recover very quickly, again because of the size. I have made very good cresent rolls & buttermilk biscuits (from ready made in the cardboard roll). Make note of temp & how long you cooked the items you cook so that next time you have a reference for the "doneness" you prefer. Really good purchase.

Sorry for the delay in answering your question. I bought a pair of 9" round Wilton Performance Pans in 2011 for my Aunt, who decorates cakes. These were tapered, which is not what she wanted. I looked around a little more and found 9" round Wilton Decorator Preferred pans that have straight walls. So you want the Decorator Preferred. What size do you need? It seems that Wilton has discontinued the 9" size.
