   Want a French oven by Le Creuset round or oval?

   It seems that the round could be a better fit on the stovetop, but are an oval one would insert turkeys/roasts/chickens better? Or do you think is important in both cases?

   otisisstumpy says:

   I agree with Christopher. Go with the oval. I have a qt oval 5 one that I had for several years. I love the thing. Perfect for the sauce, meats, stews, etc.
