    Slow cookers are one of the most appreciated kitchen appliances. For a ready-made dinner after work, all the home chef needs to do is put the ingredients in the crock the night before and refrigerate, then in the morning before leaving for work, place the crock in the cooker base and turn the knob on. Succulent roasts or stews are done by dinner time. Decorated with garden-fresh vegetables, this six-quart oval-shaped model holds a 6-pound beef roast, 6-pound chicken, two 3-pound rib packs, or approximately 5 quarts of stew or soup. Wraparound heat ensures food cooks from the sides, not just the bottom. The temperature knob features two cook settings, low and high, and a ‘keep warm’ setting for serving after food is thoroughly cooked. An included latch keeps the lid secured for transporting. The crock removes from the base for use in a microwave or oven, and both the crock and lid are dishwasher-safe. --Ann Bieri

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Crock Pot!, November 17, 2002

    I replaced my old crock pot with this one, and I was amazed at how fast it cooks! There are two features that pleases me very much. One of them is the liner does not stain, and the lid is made of tempered glass so it is very light. Also, the color of the crock pot itself is very appealing and would fit in , in any
    kitchen decor. I also love the way my food turns out when I put in in the crock pot overnight on low. The food is always done to perfection, so all I have to do is turn it to "keep warm", and it will stay hot untill my family and I are ready to eat. I would recommend this crockpot to anyone.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Cooks nicely, but cheap handles break with little use, November 6, 2004

    I received this cooker three years ago as a wedding gift. As we are now a large blended family of five, I knew I'd need to be able to cook enough for everyone. This cooker fit the bill and has worked very nicely BUT I'm ready for a new one already. Both outside handles have broken within in the past 2 years. I never carry the cooker with food in it (as it would be too heavy and dangerous) but the handles are just cheap brittle plastic. Look for something with more sturdy handles, I know I will. Other than this minor flaw, it does cook wonderfully and we have made scores of dishes in it.

    3.0 out of 5 stars There must be a better crockpot out there for the money, October 26, 2003

    I like using my crockpot because I like having dinner ready when I get home, but I wouldn't get this one if I could go back in time because the lid has never fit properly. About a year and a half after I got it, I learned that a vacuum is supposed to be created by the steam, something that can't happen with mine because the lid doesn't fit. Despite that, though, almost everything I've cooked has turned out well as long as there was lots of liquid to start. I DO like the size, shape and the actual crock itself. But the outer portion is almost flimsy and the design is ugly. Also, I think I paid about $10 less at Bed Bath & Beyond.
