I have used the pot a half dozen times or so and I've had great success with it. I read the earlier review and would definitely advise caution. I read several websites and several cook books on clay cooking before I used the pot for the first time.
Following the instructions on the websites and cookbooks, I soaked the pot completely for 4 hours in lukewarm water. Now every time I use it, I soak again for 15 minutes just before use. I use a heat diffuser and heat the pot very slowly. As I understand it, this is necessary for most clay pots.
It takes a bit of extra time but definitely worth it to save the clay pot.
The only reason I'm giving the product 4 instead of 5 stars are the instructions. The details are very sparse. (I think a sentence or two in English) So you'd have to go out of your way to learn about caring for the pot properly.

It is larger than it looks in the picture, large enough to roast a whole meal for four people and nothing tastes better than a meal prepared in one of these pots!Best Deals for Earthen Donabe Clay Pot #CD9/P

LOVE THIS POT!!! I usually make Vietnamese porridge with this pot, but I've also tried braised pork and it turns out perfect every time! I would definitely invest in another one if something happened to this.
