Question: What is the difference between the #5500 and the #4500 All-Clad 5 1/2 qt. Dutch Ovens?
Document: Well it's not that old, but it is my go-to pot for soups, stews and braising large pieces. Stainless steel is the best because I can put it in the dishwasher. It heats well because of the All-Clad technology. High sides make it an excellent pot for frying. I've  seen folks use cast iron Dutch ovens. I'm not willing to give up "dishwasher safe" for a pot that weighs a ton.
The lid is very smartly designed to keep water inside by condensing it and dripping it back into the pot. One thing I have noticed with All-Clad stuff is that their lids are very, very thick for SS cookware and they fit perfectly on the rim, something that many other competitor's products don't have.The 5.5 quart size is perfect for me, you can cook pasta in it without it getting crowded (oh yeah, and when you add the pasta - the water doesn't stop boiling!
I gave this as a gift, it is just the right size for cooking for 2. It was very appreciated!
Don't let the price tag scare you - this pot will become one of the main tools in your kitchen. And you'll be hooked and you'll go back for more.A few years ago I went to a famous kitchen store to purchase Le Creuset, but they were out of the size I wanted and the saleslady suggested this All Clad dutch oven. She said, "I'm waiting for my own Le Creuset to wear out so I can get one of these.
Love it. I've been wanting a &#34;real&#34; Dutch oven for ages, I have a Calphalon Contemporary non-stick 5qt Dutch Oven but it cooks too hot (and too cold when I turn the heat down!) and the non stick surface actually limits what I can cook in it.I had previous purchased an All-Clad 10 inch SS fry pan and was very impressed. This Dutch oven is just as good.
My wife has been slowly replacing all our kitchen cookware over the last couple of years. She performs hours of research looking for cookware that last. We are replacing a set of Revere cookware that she bought in college over twenty years ago. We have a small All Clad sauce pan from the same line as the Dutch oven we purchased, and we love it. Cleans up very easy and looks great. The Revere cookware being replaced still looks fairly decent. She registered for the All Clad Dutch oven on Amazon.
I love my dutch oven. It just the size I needed, cooks evenly and easy to clean. I would definitely recommend it!
I'll go elsewhere. I ordered my American Kitchen tri-ply dutch oven today. I'll post a review on that item when it arrives.
It is SO refreshing to find cookware that is so well made, so versatile, and so good looking, too. I eventually purchased the 13" braiser which I also use all the time. It's a good complement to the dutch oven.If you're thinking of getting one of these, just do it!
I love this Dutch Oven, just the right size, the first thing I cooked was a pot of chicken and dumplings, southern girl yeah! I like the handles because I am up in age and have arthrithis in my fingers, I feel comfortable in picking this pot up and don't feel like I am going to drop it.
Answer: The 5500 is the old design. Also, the lid on the 5500 is made in China, while the dutch oven is made in the USA!!!  The new 4500 is redesigned with wider handles and the lid and the dutch oven are made in the USA.  I called All Clad to find out for myself, before making my purchase.  The 4500 cost $25.05 more, when purchased on Amazon, but is so worth it!!!
