I’ve owned both a Le Creuset and Lodge for about 3 years now and the Lodge has much more noticeable wear, including small chipping and much more wear on the inside of the Dutch oven. The Le Creuset is still looking great with some light wear inside. It’s definitely built better, but if you really baby a lodge, you’ll probably get some good use out of it.
