What isn’t this great for? It can handle searing heat, or low and slow, it can easily be transferred from the stove to the oven, and back again. It’s a great heat conductor with fantastic heat distribution so it can bake breads, deep fry, or keep a dish warm for serving. With a little aluminum foil and a small wire rack, you can even turn turn it into quite an effective makeshift mini-smoker!
I use the 5.5QT version, which is a nice medium-to-large “all around” size that can comfortably serve 6 people. It’s wide enough to easily use a spatula for flipping (it even sears a nice burger!), yet it’s also tall enough to go all out on nice chunky stew or bake an artisanal loaf of bread.
The enamel coating is also an overall upgrade over traditional cast iron. It cleans up reasonably easily, and it won’t react to highly acidic foods such as tomato sauces. While it’s not exactly a non-stick surface, this is actually an advantage because it’s great for creating that perfect fond.
On top of it all, it’s beautiful to look at. My Le Creuset Dutch oven sits on my stove as a permanent fixture because I use it for just about everything - from searing steaks to you-name-it!
Ease of use: effortless.
Clean up: a snap
Results: excellent.
Attractiveness: 10
The only tiny con is the moderately weighty construction. If you have the opportunity and can only splurge for one versatile, perfectly utilitarian food preparation implement this is your piece. Looks beautiful right out of the oven to the table with a tuna casserole or a chocolate soufflé! You can’t lose.

For years I've used a good quality stainless steel pot (Kuhn Rikon) but this is better and requires very little heat to keep it bubbling away. Easy to clean.
