Lodge's stuff is great too, way cheaper but basically the same in terms of quality. The one caveat is that if you're looking secondhand, they're almost the same price. Used Le Creuset stuff is usually like $60, and Lodge stuff is like $40ish, but it can be harder to find in my experience, especially if you're looking for a certain size or shape.
the lodge enameled cast-iron cookware is perfectly good

The enamel on Lodge's version is anecdotally a little bit less durable. But you can just avoid dropping it and it will be fine
