I bought those lovely bags that you can use in these cookers, and boy, are they awesome! They save a lot of time, scrubbing, and headaches. This is a good cooker, similar to the red one I bought here a while back on my other account, which I tossed because I got sick of everything sticking to it. Be sure to buy the plastic liners—they work really well and save a lot of time! No, they won't melt! I was skeptical about that myself, and the food doesn't taste like plastic. Read more
I really liked using this crock pot / slow cooker. No joke, it's a slow cooker, took about 3 1/2 hours to make my chicken. It was worth every minute. The 7 quart size if great if you want to meal prep. This is good for people that are trying to lose weight as well as gain weight. The crock pot is super easy to use, it's plain and simple. No frills and an unlimited amount of buttons to try to figure out. All the settings you have are off, low, high, and warm. Very simple and hard to make a mistake. I think it heats up the chicken quite evenly without much manual intervention. Cool modern stainless steel design. The lid fits perfectly. Easy to wash and dry and store away for my next cooking adventure. Read more
This crock pot is a great value for money and works great. I’ve used it several times to prepare a pot roast and it’s turned out great each time. It’s easy to clean and ready to use for next time! It cooks low and slow on the low heat setting. It’s perfect to put a meal in, set to low, go to work, and come home to dinner ready! Read more
Great crockpot. Does a great job of cooking easy meals with little effort. Nondigital so less worries of malfunctioning. Easy to use. It does get really hot to touch so have to be careful. Does not have light to indicate it is on. Read more
These things get SUPER HOT! it is NOT a slow cooker, it is a FAST cooker [Unless you put it on WARM. Low/High is not much differnce on mine]. It works well as a fast cooker and not as well as a slow cooker. ALSO Watch the OUTSIDE metal of the pot. This can BURN you badly because the isolation is poor. Overall I do like it, it is just not the SLOW cooker i though i was buys Read more
Had to buy a new crockpot after mine broke. Found that a replacement insert costs almost as much as a whole new set up. Stores easy. It’s easy to use. Holds the heat well. The removable insert makes it easy to transport and easy to clean. Lid holds the heat in and sits perfectly. Read more
I bought this Crock-Pot for my mom as a Christmas gift, and she absolutely loves it. The 7-quart size is perfect for family meals, and it cooks evenly every time. It’s easy to use, easy to clean, and great for soups, roasts, and slow-cooked meals. This was a great gift and a solid, reliable slow cooker. Highly recommend! Read more
This 7-quart crockpot is huge, much bigger than my 5-quart one. I kept running out of space when making beef stew, not enough for potatoes and carrots and all the rest along with the slab of beef. This one holds a lot of stuff. The first time I used it, I put too much liquid in it, and it wound up burning stuff on the inside of the burner. I had to scrape it all off to use it again. This time I am using less liquid (but at least 8 oz of wine), and I bought a new digital timer. This new timer seems better than the old manual ones that you have to pick out or punch in the little tabs. Right now, I'm cooking a beef stew with potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, garlic cloves, bell peppers, lemon pepper, honey garlic, pink Himalayan salt, Worcestershire sauce, wine, a can of cream of asparagus, package of beef stew spices, and a lot of love. I'm cooking this on low heat and started about 4 hours ago. My timer is set for 8 hours, which will be in another 4 hours from now. I'm sure that this crockpot will do its job. If not, I will update this review. Other than that, this crockpot is a nice product and worth the price and the large capacity. Read more
