‘Totally brilliant pan’: The bestselling MasterClass casserole dish is back on sale for £30 – and it’s a designer dupe
With over 4,000 reviews on Amazon, the MasterClass Lightweight Casserole Dish has attracted an impressive fan base, often selling out as soon as it goes on sale.
The buzz surrounding the casserole dish is largely thanks to the hundreds of shoppers who have compared the quality and performance to Le Creuset.
If you want something similar to the quality of Le Creuset but aren’t prepared to fork out £195 and are put off by the cast iron weight, it’s worth checking out this lightweight, affordable dupe. And better yet, it’s now on sale for even less, reduced to just £29.99.
The MasterClass Lightweight Casserole Dish is now on sale for just £29.99 for a four Litre dish – that’s a saving of £15
A casserole dish is an indispensable item for hearty one-pot meals. From stews and casseroles to curries and chillis, find the right one, and it should see you through all dining situations.
And thousands of shoppers have claimed the MasterClass casserole dish is that said pot, calling it a ‘totally brilliant pan’ a ‘god send’ and a ‘superb lightweight piece of kitchen kit’.
In fact, it’s so popular that an impressive 84 per cent of shoppers have awarded it a full-five stars – that’s over 3,700 glowing five-star reviews.
While cast iron pans are traditionally seen as the best in terms of quality and durability, they can be very heavy – not to mention incredibly expensive.
The MasterClass Non-Stick Casserole Pan is made out of cast aluminium which is not only substantially cheaper, but it’s also significantly more lightweight, weighing just 1.55kg for a 4-litre pot, which makes it far easier to handle.
As aluminium is such a good heat conductor, it’s also a lot quicker at cooking, which is ideal if you don’t have long to rustle up a meal.
Plus, thanks to the stainless steel base, it’s safe for any heat source, including induction hobs and ovens. You can use it for cooking bolognese, stews, curries, roasted meats – everything you need for hearty meals.
The pot has a self-basting lid, which keeps the moisture in the pan, and the robust double-layer non-stick, which gives the dish impressive strength
‘This pot is stellar’ raved one shopper. ‘It’s the perfect size, really lightweight, and feels like the same quality as cast iron. I’ve used it to bake sourdough, and all my loaves have come out beautifully.’
In fact, shoppers say the quality and performance is so notable, that many have even compared the MasterClass to the premium Le Creuset.
‘This pan is a dream’ penned another delighted shopper. ‘Every time I use it, I always say best choice I’ve ever made. World class pan. I use Le Crueset daily and this pan seriously over performs for cost.’
Another agreed, adding: ‘Having used a Le Crueset casserole for many years this one is so much better . Nothing sticks and it is much lighter . Used for casseroles . Soup and risotto. The handles do get hot so I purchased a set of covers which work perfectly.’
‘Bought to replace very old Le Creuset’ wrote another ‘and impressed by performance and ease of use (so much lighter and still a great result)’.
The MasterClass Lightweight Casserole Dish also comes in a cool ombre colour, which is also currently on sale.
