Review
Many people love slow cooking in the winter months, while others swear by it in the summer months to keep from heating their home up with the stove and oven. Whatever season you prefer to use a slow cooker, there are a great addition to any kitchen and also make great gifts during the Christmas season.
A crock pot is extremely versatile in the type of meals you can cook in them. These days there are many that are programmable, making meal preparation even more convenient.

The programmable feature allows you to set cooking times anywhere from half an hour to 20 hours. Once the program is done cooking it will turn the crock pot down to a low setting to keep your food warm until you’re ready to serve.
It also features a locking lid with a gasket to keep spills at bay if you’re traveling to a pot luck dinner or other occasion with your slow cooker.

What Customers Are Saying:
This slow cooker has received a lot of great reviews and most buyers love it. A few have stated that with its first time use it does put off a plastic-like odor from being new, but this did not affect the taste of the food and was gone after the first use.
- This crockpot is a joy. Never had one before and read the tech report that gave this high marks for its simplicity in cooking and cleaning.
- This is an awesome crock pot, I’m very happy with the purchase. So far, everything we’ve made has cooked properly, and been absolutely delicious.
- I bought this based on a recommendation from America’s Test Kitchen. I love the size, ease of use, and that after the timed cooking, it switches to warming, so your food is safe if you don’t make it home as soon as the timer ends.
- For the price, it can’t be beat! I bought this as I was starting a full time job and needed to have meals cooking while I was gone. Every meal so far has turned out perfect.
