Korean Earthenware Clay Hot Pot (1100ml)

Definitely worth the money for me! Works as expected and actually held a lot more broth than i anticipated, which was nice. The manual also includes a few helpful tips that will make the pot last longer. Overall, good craftmanship, I would buy again!

Just like the pots back home.

A nice small casserole that is right at home in a microwave or a regular oven. Makes a good bowl for menudo or french onion soup, too. Probably gonna get at least one more.

Have used several times since receiving this to cook rice, to make and serve dolsot bibimbap, and made a stew cooked in the oven for two hours. Love the versatility of this cookware and food tastes great cooked in this. Am happy to have an additional cooking vessel that can go from stovetop to oven to table. I use only wood chopsticks and spoons when eating directly from the pot and use silicone or wood cooking utensils to prevent chipping or scratching the glaze. Am happy with the larger size (1400 ml) I purchased as it's a perfect size to serve bibimbap for two. Considered several others and went with this pot for the size I wanted and the easily grippable handles on the lid and sides to prevent drops, accidents, and breaks especially when handling while hot. So far nothing I've cooked in this has stuck to the cooking surface. It cleans easily with warm water, soft sponge, and baking soda or flour, per instructions. It's described as dishwasher safe but haven't tried and prefer to keep washing by hand. It's a beautiful little pot and so far seems quite sturdy though I'm careful not to tap the sides with cooking or eating utensils and generally handle with more care than my metal pots and pans. I prefer more natural, less chemical treated cooking surfaces and I'm happy with this purchase. Shipping was fast and the pot was well-padded and secure inside packaging.

It works well as the "breathing pot" it's known for. Only things to note is that it can only be thoroughly cleaned with water and baking soda, and to make sure all of the labels are off. Its microporous earthenware material tends to seep some liquid, so make sure to clean it as instructed. Upon using the second time, I began smelling smoke out of nowhere. I thought it was the pot, but it turned out that there was a label underneath that I didn't know was there. Fortunately, no damage was done, but there was no immediate indication that there was a label underneath it upon unboxing.

Was excited about this Korean pot. We were just about to use it for rice, when I turned on my glass stove top we heard a loud crack sound- unfortunately the pot cracked right down the side. Very disappointing as I had high hopes for this pot since it is suppose to be authentic, and capable of handle glass stove top.Sadly, I had to return this broken pot was given a refund but my heart feels like it has given up on original OnggiJonggi stoneware pot.

Good value for money. Durable, Classy.

This was supposed to be a Christmas gift for my daughter, but she spotted it so I gave it to her a 'little bit' early. She LOVES it. She uses it for rice, and it keeps the rice at temperature without getting sticky or dry. Now the only problem is finding something else just as wonderful to fill its spot under the tree.
