After weeks of anticipation, the day is finally upon us: Black Friday. And it couldn’t come any sooner, as our Christmas lists begin to pile up and get out of control. So, don’t fret about last-minute orders, get in there early, as the deals have only just begun.
Our favourite brands are offering up seriously good savings for the festive period, on everything from home appliances and toys to beauty and fashion. So, whether you’ve got your eye on a new laptop, telly or a cosy new mattress, there’s bound to be something for you this Black Friday. One of the most anticipated stores to release its deals is Le Creuset – and they don’t disappoint.
So, don’t shop around for a Le Creuset dupe, get your hands on the real deal. Home chefs and foodies love Le Creuset for its stunning kitchenware and cast iron pots (and its great colours), but getting your hands on one can be quite the investment. However, there’s never been a better time to get involved, as Le Creuset has slashed its prices by up to 40 per cent for Black Friday.
We love Le Creuset’s products here at IndyBest, and have even given its famous casserole dish a 9/10 rating in our comparison review. But it’s not just Le Creuset itself offering up deals – tons of shops have released their own price drops on Le Creuset products, including John Lewis & Partners and Amazon. And if you can’t get enough homeware, check out Dyson, Argos, Currys and Very for their kitchen deals too.
We’ve trawled through Le Creuset and more to find the best deals on some of the brand’s biggest products. Keep reading to find out more.

Now, Le Creuset has given the set a discount of more than 40 per cent, bringing the price down to £529.

Treating that special someone this festive season? This heart-shaped Le Creuset casserole dish is the perfect gift. It’s just like the brand’s famous 26cm casserole dish (which is also on sale for £162) but smaller, and with some added romance. Amazon is offering a 21 per cent discount for Black Friday, just in time for Christmas. The dish holds 1.9l and serves two (or more, when holding a side dish) and is perfect for both quick simmering and slow cooking, due to its even heating and retention.

What’s better than the Le Creuset casserole dish? Its little sister, the shallow Le Creuset casserole dish. With a 2l capacity, this dish serves two to four people, and as it’s great for slow cooking as well as quick simmering, it’s perfect for casseroles, roasts, pasta, fish and more. It’s also easy to clean, and is fine to put in the oven when you’re cooking, and the dishwasher when you’re done. The perfect ‘one pot’ accessory.

They’re dishwasher-safe and feature a durable chip-resistant enamel – and they’re designed to keep your drink hot for ages. Plus, they come in a lovely gift box.

Le Creuset doesn’t only do cast iron. The brand also does fantastic glass and aluminium products, such as this shallow casserole pot, which promises Le Creuset’s best-ever non-stick coating – perfect for fish, meat, potatoes and veg. But unlike a lot of non-stick pans out there, this one is safe to use with metal utensils, so it won’t get scratched and lose its shine. You can also put it in the dishwasher, which is always a bonus.

Black Friday originated in the US, when stores hosted clearance sales the day after Thanksgiving, to mark the start of the festive shopping period. In the decades since, the sale has expanded into a gigantic worldwide event that spans a four-day period – with some brands even launching their Black Friday sales a whole month prior.
Huge discounts are offered by most UK retailers on big-ticket brands, including Apple, Dyson, Shark, KitchenAid, LG, Nintendo, Asos, Flannels, Sky and more. With deals spanning tech, beauty, kids’ toys, fashion and home appliances, you can expect to save on Gymshark, Lululemon, Pandora, Hotel Chocolat, Ugg, Philips, Dr Martens and Charlotte Tilbury, to name just a few.
