Le Creuset Black Friday deals 2026: prices to buy now or wait for
Short answer: the 24cm Signature round casserole is £203.03 on Amazon in Caribbean blue, which is already £20 below the £223 it sold for on Black Friday last year, so it's fine to buy now. The 20cm size at £155.99 is also a good price, but stoneware mugs and dishes usually get their biggest cuts during the sale itself, so wait on those.
Le Creuset prices on Amazon change by colour, so the same pot can cost £100 more in a different shade. We update this page as prices move. These prices were checked on 25 October 2026.
Le Creuset Signature cast iron round casserole, 24cm (4.2 litres), Caribbean
Cheaper than last year's Black Friday price of £223. The size most households should buy: big enough for a family stew or a loaf of bread. Other colours are up to £335.
Le Creuset Signature cast iron round casserole, 20cm (2.4 litres), Caribbean
About 40% under the full price other colours are selling for. Right for one or two people, side dishes and sauces.
Le Creuset Signature shallow casserole, 26cm (2 litres), Chambray
The wide, low shape is better for browning, risotto and one-pan bakes than a deep pot. The same size in Nuit is £289.
Le Creuset Signature cast iron round casserole, 28cm (6.7 litres), Matte Black
John Lewis lists this range at up to £405 for the 28cm, so this is a big saving. Worth it if you batch-cook or feed six or more.
Le Creuset Signature cast iron rectangular roaster, 33cm (4.9 litres), Cerise
PriceSpy's lowest price over the last three months is £191.20, so you're within £8 of it. Good for lasagne, roast chicken and traybakes.
Le Creuset stoneware mugs, set of 4 (350ml), Cerise
A nice gift, but Le Creuset sold a set of four for £31 in its 2024 Black Friday sale. The Volcanic set is £65 today, so colour matters.
Le Creuset prices to aim for this Black Friday
These are the prices worth paying, based on last year's sales and today's prices. If you see a piece at or below this figure, it's a genuinely good deal.
- Signature round casserole, 24cm: £200 to £225. It sold for £223 on Amazon (Deep Teal) at Black Friday 2025, and it's £203.03 today in Caribbean.
- Signature round casserole, 20cm: under £160.
- Signature round casserole, 28cm: under £300.
- Signature shallow casserole, 26cm: around £220.
- Stoneware set of 4 mugs: about £31 to £35. Le Creuset's own Black Friday sale in 2024 had them at £31.
- Stoneware rectangular dishes: Le Creuset cut a single 32cm dish to £29 and a set of two to £60 in its 2024 sale. In 2025 its classic baking dish was £27.30, down from £39.
Full prices for the Signature range have risen. Today the uncut colours sell for about £265 (20cm), £335 (24cm) and £405 (28cm), so a discounted colour can save you £100 or more.
Which Le Creuset pieces are worth it?
Start with a round casserole. This is the piece people use for decades. The 24cm (4.2 litres) suits most homes of two to four people. It holds a stew, a curry or a pot-roast chicken, and it's the classic size for baking bread. Go for the 20cm if you mostly cook for one or two, or want a second pot for rice and sides. The 26cm and 28cm are for big families and batch cooking. Bear in mind that the 28cm is heavy when full, and that matters if you have weak wrists or high cupboards.
Round or shallow? A shallow casserole (sometimes called a braiser) has more base area and lower sides. It's better for browning meat, shakshuka, risotto and dishes you finish in the oven. If you already have a round pot, a shallow one is the most useful second piece.
Signature vs the older Classic range. Signature is the current range, with bigger handles, a heat-resistant knob and a lighter sand-coloured enamel inside. Classic pieces still turn up in sales, often at bigger discounts. They cook just as well, so they're a fair way to save money.
Cast iron vs stoneware. Stoneware (mugs, baking dishes, ramekins, pie dishes) is much cheaper, lighter and goes in the dishwasher, but it can't go on the hob. It makes a better gift if your budget is under £60. Stoneware also gets the deepest Black Friday cuts, often 40% to 50% off on Le Creuset's own site.
When do Le Creuset prices drop?
Black Friday 2026 is on Friday 27 November, and Cyber Monday on 30 November. In past years, Le Creuset's own website launched its sale in Black Friday week, with the biggest cuts on stoneware and selected cast-iron colours. John Lewis usually matches it on some lines.
Amazon is different: Le Creuset prices there move all year, and individual colours drop at random. That's why the 24cm is already cheaper than last Black Friday. If the size and colour you want hits the target price above, there's little point waiting.
Many of Amazon's Black Friday prices are for Prime members only. If you're not a member, a Prime free trial covers the whole sale period. See our Amazon Prime free trial guide for how to time it.
Is Le Creuset cheaper on Black Friday?
Usually, yes, but not always on Amazon. Le Creuset's own sale and John Lewis cut prices in Black Friday week, while Amazon prices go up and down by colour all year. Compare today's price with the targets above before you decide.
What size Le Creuset casserole should I buy?
For most people, the 24cm. It feeds about four and is the size most recipes assume. Pick 20cm for one or two people, and 26cm or 28cm if you regularly cook for six or more.
Why are some colours much cheaper than others?
Amazon and other retailers discount colours they want to clear, while new or popular shades stay at full price. The pot is identical apart from the enamel colour, so being flexible is the easiest way to save £50 to £100.
Is Le Creuset worth the money?
If you'll use it every week, yes. Enamelled cast iron holds heat evenly, goes from hob to oven, and comes with a lifetime guarantee on cast iron. If you only make the odd casserole, a cheaper cast-iron pot will do the job.
