Hi Murray

Freight cost about $63 but that also included a heap of cookbooks as well some top books available from RVoutpost store in US and they have gear we havent even heard of in Australia got some great lid lifters and oven scrapers as well as all Camp Chef gear worth dealing with these people as they really do provide a great service and follow up as well

Good one Kel, I will suss them (Anaconda) out and see if they can offer me a better price on a 10" deep oven than U No Who in the U No Where.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd

Got the following email today from the importers of Lodge products into Australia. Looks like no Lodge Camp Dutch Ovens here for a while.

Also posted on the International Dutch Oven Society and Camp Chef confirmed the info in Furph's post above. Products in store by Christmas. Waiting for a response from them as to what models they will be stocking. If Anaconda import direct from China where they are made, as I expect they will, then the cost should be reasonable.

I think I have just about given up on Australian made ovens. Apart from the few old ones around I doubt we will ever see anymore new ones on the market

Derek,

The Lodge range as you would be aware is quite extensive; however we are limited to what we can access here in Australia. We would be delighted to list the Camp Dutch Ovens if we can access them, however I don't think that this is going to be possible just at this stage.

I like your web site - a lot of information

Derek, the reason some US residents speak so strongly in favour of Lodge is that they still make most their products in the United States. They also have a very strong world wide marketing outfit. Just you go to google UK and do a search for either Dutch oven or camp oven!!!!

I'm sure if you've been reading many sources carefully, you would see that those who look for the pot quality like the Camp Chef as well as the Lodge. How's about, you just do a bit of cooking comparison - the new Furphy, the new Lodge and the Camp Chef. OK!!!!

After all we have multinational markets these days. The cost of labour is higher in Oz, US, CA, UK...... than China, Taiwan, India...... Who can blame any company for watching the margins.
