Rank #4 in Best Cast Iron Casserole Dish 2026: 9 Ranked, and Where the Specs Contradict
Overmont 24 cm Enamelled Cast Iron Casserole Pot, Sapphire Blue
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Overmont 24cm enamelled cast iron round casserole in sapphire blue takes fourth place in this guide. It is listed at £37.55 with a 4.6 rating from 10,481 Amazon reviews, and the rating breakdown supplied with the listing puts 82 of every 100 ratings at five stars against five at one star.
Capacity is where this listing argues with itself. The product name says 4.2 litres; the specification field says 4.5 quarts, which works out at about 4.26 litres — and both figures describe the same 24 cm diameter pot. The same page also gives the weight as 5.5 kg and states the dimensions twice in two different forms, as 30W x 32H centimetres and as 30 x 30 x 32 centimetres. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing and the customer reviews attached to it; we have not tested this pot ourselves.
