i have a 5 qt le crueset, and i think it is too small. but it is about the upper limits for my wife when it comes to moving it about. i usually wash it, and move it in and out of the oven loaded. i would love the 7 qt. loaded up with a stew, i bet you would definately need to "lift with the legs"
i've made bread, and believe me, it will take your $300 pot and make it look like krap. knowing what i know now, i would bake the bread in two cast iron fry pans inverted over each other. cast iron cant get any blacker. or get that china made one from Target. i've ruined the look of my pot.
my friend has one with the drip buttons, not a Staub. cant tell if his chicken is more juicy than mine or not.
the 5 qt is a tad small if i cook for friends. a seven would be perfect.
not so sure i would visit France for my next one. everybody makes a version now. i would save a $100 and get some Emeril or Rachel, or Mario..(you get the point)
