It says "Le Creuset of America" as the brand on the listing... does this mean the pan is not made in France? If you bought it, does yours say "made in France" on it anywhere? I don't want to buy a knock-off. Thanks!

Pan should say Made In France imbedded in the bottom of the pan into the cast iron . That is how it is on all of my Le Creuset .You should know that mine are older pans and things could have changed . I would not recommend that grill pan if the interior is like mine which is basically a rough cast iron surface .Everything sticks to it and it the worst pan I have ever owned for cleaning .I own a lot of Le Creuset and after I used it was quite surprised on how bad it is .All the seasoning in the world would not help .I have owned raw cast iron pots through the years which I have seasoned to where they were almost completely non stick but this grill pan is hopeless .

Ray, I'm not sure where it's made however I will tell you this it's the best bakeware and some of the best pans I have ever used and I have been using calphalon for years. Weather says it's the best but cake pan she has ever used an 85 years. Now to me that means something! Just remember I bought one as a gift and it was under the bed.The pan was made in Thailand and the lid was made in China and it's sold under the DuPont company structure.Hope this helps? Paul

Le Creuset does not discolor! I have prepared many sauces and stews and it is as lovely as when I bought it. I think more important than discoloration is if the interior starts to fleck and break away. Caution about purchasing knock-offs (may have Le Creuset on the label, but if the price is too good to be true, then it is not a Le Creuset!!!

I don't know the country of origin, but it arrives quickly and it's my favorite pan.I had my first one for over 10 years. Hope this helps.

Mine has 'made in France' embossed inside the lid, so I assume that to be accurate. I didn't want a product made in China. Lodge is an American company but their enameled cast iron is made in China, and LeCruset made in France is very pricey. This Dutch oven is very well made and functions wonderfully as does most cast iron appliances, and is affordable.

Mine has a stamp/impression FRANCE on the underside of where the le Creuset is. I am concerned myself now, because all of my other pieces purchased at WS & sur la have the impression MADE IN FRANCE in a circle in the center on the bottom of the pieces. The paper work all says made in France.

Le Creuset cast iron is made in France, not China like a good number of other brands. Le Creuset invests heavily in the quality of the enamel coating and backs it with a lifetime warranty. The enamel is easy to clean and will last a very long time without chipping when properly cared for. Chef Corner Store

China. It's stamped Thunder Group (TG) SLSPS012, 12 Qt, NSF, Made in China....and must add, like the other person who answered, it's the best pan I ever owned- and use it for everything. I completely understand about 'buy American' as I did consider that when looking for pans to purchase; however, I sold out and purchased. It appears DM did his research, the All-Clad premium products are made in USA- their more affordable stuff is not. I too wish Amazon would ALWAYS list where items are manufactured, it was fairly challenging to research various websites to find out were stuff was made. China.

Since I returned mine, I can't tell you the stamp on the piece,but the Le Cruset website states: "Le Creuset-"the crucible" in French-began creating cast iron cookware over 85 years ago in a foundry in Northern France. The same foundry, in Fresnoy-Le-Grand, that today uses individual sand molds to fashion each and every hand-inspected cast iron kitchen product that Le Creuset sells."

China, but it's a great pan. I have some all clad stuff and lodge cast iron made in the good ol' USA, I have 2 of these great little pots and might even get another for the versatility. I use mine all the time. get one for the heck of it and try it out. they are a bargain @ 60$ cheaper than a same size all clad. just keep the heat at medium or below and it will be great. I bet you keep itthi

Thank you for your interest. Most of Le Creuset's stoneware is made in Thailand. This piece is made in China.Chefs Corner Store

Hello Caroline, Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, Le Creuset Forged Hard-Anodized Fry Pans are only made in China.

I don't know as there is nothing on the pan to indicate where made. However, u might be able to check with the company name which was stamped on my pan...Libertyware. Hope this helps.

Le Creuset is to Calphalon like a Mercedes is to a Buick. Ther simply is no comparison, and Le Creuset is worth the premium cost because it simply is better. It cooks like a dream, and while it does not have a non-stick coating, food does not stick to it, and cleanup is as easy as non-stick. The lack of non-stck is actually an advantage - no non-stick surface can brown meats and chicken as well as those without non-stick. Non-stick also cannot take as high of temperatures as regular coatings. The Le Creuset has an enamel finish on the inside and outside. Make sure to only buy the Le Creuset that is made in France, though. They make cheaper versions of their products with different materials out of China and Thailand, but they are no where near the quality and performance of the real thing. Hope this helps.

The pan doesn't say where it was made. The box doesn't say and the instruction manual doesn't say. It does look like a well made pan, thou I haven't used it yet.
