Very expensive pot , very cheap quality

After having my Le Creuset pot for 2 years i noticed a chip inside the enamel. Which grew bigger. Having Spent nearly R2000 on this pot I took it back to Le Creuset hoping they could fix the item, i do not expect a new item. I got called today and told that all there pots cannot withstand a heat of above 3 setting, so you can only use med to low heat. So all my other MUCH CHEAPER pots who have gone through the same processes as my VERY EXPENSIVE Le Creuset pot have no issues. So it does not always pay to buy something you THINK is a better quality. I have always supported the brand, but will never buy another item from them again. This is another example of a pretentious brand that thinks consumers are stupid, we expect a better product for our money
