This is the primary use of my Lodge dutch oven now - bread. It works great for homemade sourdough. I've had it for 14 years, no complaints.
I picked up a 5Q enameled cast iron dutch oven from JC Penney. With all the trouble they're having, there were a lot of markdowns. Got it for $35, something like that. Off-brand, so far it's done it's job. I'm waiting to see if the handle (screw-in knob) remains intact.
