Why You Can Trust CNET A Lodge Dutch oven for $40 is too good to pass up
Plus, pay just $40 for an Insignia multicooker and make comfort food for days.
I'm going to level with you: We're looking at a stressful couple of weeks and if ever there was a time for comfort food, it's now. In a rare flash of good news, there are two can't-miss-'em $40 kitchen deals that'll help make it happen. You don't have to poke around our cookware coverage for long to discover how we feel about Dutch ovens. In fact, I'll save you even that small bit of time: We love them, and Walmart currently has a high-quality 5.5-quart Lodge Dutch oven on sale for just $40, complete with free shipping. Speaking of all-star comfort food cookware, Best Buy has slashed the price on an 8-quart Insignia multicooker down 50% to just $40, for today only. It'll do everything your standard Instant Pot does (check the reviews!) but at less than half the cost. See below for details on these two excellent $40 kitchen deals.
Enameled cast iron is the much-coveted combination of heat retention and even heat distribution, making it perfect for braising meats and slow-cooking sauces, stews and soups. The sturdy enamel coating is easy to clean and safe to use on any cooktop or with any heat source. Lodge is one of the oldest American cookware companies, and its 5.5-quart signature Dutch oven is as low as we've seen it this year. It's available in cherry red or royal blue and ships for free.
With all of the functionality of the Instant Pot, this Insignia multicooker can be used as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, steamer, rice cooker, warmer and more. The ultimate vehicle for tender meats and easy weeknight dinners that taste like they took hours, but definitely didn't. Not to mention healthy meal planning and even a simple, protein-packed breakfast in a pinch. The Insignia receives extremely high marks in more than 3,000 verified purchase reviews and is down to just $40, plus free shipping.
