NESCO 18 Quart Roaster Slow Cooker - Red

Bought this as I was freaking out about 1st time hosting and making all the things for thanksgiving (vs ordering in previous years!). We have one oven and timing everything can be a challenge. After reading reviews and seeing harsh chemicals in other roasters we picked this one and it delivered! Turkey was done early (so we needed to catch up on other things) or know to cook a little later. It was moist and great! I was most worried about it being dry but even my honest sister said it was the best turkey she has ever had! I am so happy with purchase and plan to use for other gatherings with large portions! Easy to clean following for bonus perk! Read more

Bought this item to use for making our dog food. Couldn't have made a better decision to go with this cooker. The size and heat levels are great for what we needed. Quality product that has brought ease into our lives now that it doesn't have to be done over the stove. Read more

Was hesitant at 1st but decided to give it a try. Works as it should. Maybe too well. Def keep an eye on whatever you put in. Be sure to read and follow directions prior to use and forward and you should have no issues. Its large enough to fit a 14 lb turkey with no problem and it even Browned it. It is a large pot. Id say the width is the size of 2 average size crock pots, possibly 21/2,placed side by side. Read more

I was so scared to see if this would work, and it did! We had potatoes on the bottom, chicken in the middle, and green beans on top and the heat level cooked everything perfectly! This is the best value for your money and so easy to use! The easiest part was honestly how easy it was to clean after we cooked! Plus, it looked chic in our kitchen during our events! Read more

One thing about this Nesco 18 QUARTS Roaster pan.. it's big. like bigger than a basset hound big. Trying to find a place to store it was difficult. I eventually found enough shelf room in this little house for it, and it's totally worth it. I have used it several times already for tomatoes, apples, peaches. Always run out of jars for the capacity it has. Sides heat up a lot faster than the bottom does, and I forgot you're supposed to put water in between the heating element and insert pan the first time, but the eventual scaring on the inside does go away. I have a split sink and not much room to clean the insert comfortably. I may have to invest in a full tub sink, instead of a 2 compartment. The rest of the unit is easy to wipe out, and no calcium ring on the inside if you add a dash of vinegar in the water. Dial is very easy to read, but also easy to bump. Be careful and listen for the 'tick' when the dial goes above where it's currently set to. A good investment for any hobbyist canner, homesteader, or large family. Read more
