STAUBCast Iron Lid Holder - Black, Made in France

A must have companion to your dutch oven with those heavy lids, but i also use this with any lid!

I LOVE this lid holder! I have Staub dutch ovens and a few pans and was always trying to find a place to put a lid when cooking and adding ingredients or checking on my food. It would end up dripping water either on my stove top or counters, which drives me nuts. This stopped that and keeps the lid out of the way without taking up too much counter space. The moisture collects in a removable silicone tray at the base which you can take out and clean when you are done cooking. I was able to get this one sale for a good price and it arrived the next day. Highly recommend if you do a lot of cooking with pots with lids.

This thing is a serious beast by way of weight and sturdiness. I have this next to the OXO lid holder and it’s a night and day difference. You should credit the OXO for how light it is yet it will hold a heavy cast iron Staub lid, with a spoon rest to boot!This Staub lid holder trumps the OXO for the qualities mentioned above. This also has one and only one function - hold a heavy lid. It will look the part in a well organized home kitchen where you want statement pieces which is what Staub and LC is about.

Very well made and sturdy great for your cast iron enamel lids.

Material is cast iron so it’s stable and withstands those weighty Dutch oven slash cast iron lids, large and small, without falling over. My photo is showing a light but large glass lid made by Staub’s competitor lol.The slot where the lid sits on has a removable material (silicone I think) and the stand has a silicone cap. Both these materials soften the impact of putting something heavy so there’s no metal clanging. The condensation on the lids will drop on the slot so it’s fantastic and convenient that this part is removable and cleanable.Wish it could take multiple covers at the same time when I’m cooking up a storm…but the lid handles will take room too so if the manufacturers built a bigger product, this would be larger and heavier and I may not have the room for that.I don’t think it’s a kitchen basic however I truly appreciate it and makes my life easier - love having somewhere to put the hot lid on when I don’t have a lot of counter space, instead of on the stovetop grill, the granite countertop or the sink. Keeps it neat and convenient for those heavy @$& lids.Was the pricey $50 worth it? I think so. If you spent money for those Dutch ovens, I say ‘In for a penny, in for a pound.”

Husband surprised me with this, it makes cooking with lids so much easier! The little trough catches all the moisture from the lid, it's extremely sturdy, hold all size lids, cleans easily, goes well with our kitchen decor, it's a little pricey but so worth it.

Like another reviewer said, I wished I had purchased this sooner. It’s sturdy and holds all lids—not just staub. But it’s expensive and heavy and doesn’t look great on the counter, so there is a lot of moving it up to the counter when I cook. But it’s helpful!

This holder is very good quality. It’s mostly suitable for 22cm and up. I have a 16cm rice pot and the lid tends to rest on the bottom of silicone liner, not the metal frame.
