Great Crockpot June 1, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

We have owned this crockpot for over 6 months now and use it on average once a week. It is a great quaility item and we haven't had any issues. We like the simple programming and have used it to brown meat in the same pan. We aren't sure why so many people are giving the item low stars. If you drop the lid, why wouldn't you expect it to chip or break? Its STONEWARE, not metal. Don't blame the product for your carelessness. If you dropped a dinnerplate and it cracked, would you blame the produce or the person dropping the product?
We have two crockpots that we bought at the same time and after using each a couple of times, we never use the "other" brand unless cooking for the masses. They both cost around the same yet the this crockpot seems to be made of quality materials and doesn't feel "cheap". I find it odd that people have said in reviews that they "wouldn't brown meat in it" for whatever reason, but never tried. How can you give a produce a bad review when you haven't even tried using it. To me it seems that those people have an axe to grind.
If you want a crockpot where you pour in a Marie Calendar's crock pot meal and call that cooking, go buy a walmart piece of junk special. If you want a crockpot that you can actually do some real cooking in, this pot is for you.
Just to set the record straight, this is a great quality crockpot that works as advertised.

nice slow cooker June 1, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've had this slow cooker for about 2 months and have made 5 or 6 dinners with it. It works as advertised. There are two reasons I didn't give it 5 stars, the stoneware lid cracked near the handle after maybe the 3rd use. To be honest I'm not sure if I did it somehow or it happened on its own but it hasn't affected anything. The other thing is it has no bell or anything to let you know its done, altho it goes to "warm" automatically when the time is up.

Fantastic Crockpot and a Great Buy! May 19, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have used this pot quite a few times since I purchased it, and it is everything that it stated in the description. I am extremely pleased with this slow cooker as I am able to time exactly when I want my dinner ready. It washes very easily, but I do use cooking spray. I like that it is versatile, and I can brown meat and carmelize onions right on my stove top. It is a very healthy way to create meals. I love it!

Hot Stuff May 16, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Still has a tendency to get a little hot, but all in all it's very nice. For example if you toss beans and water in to cook, keep an eye on the water level. Even on low it can dry out. We like it a lot though.

Expensive, but fragile May 9, 2008
4 out of 6 found this review helpful

I bought this slow cooker because my current one was both too small and ran too hot. I have found the temp settings on this cooker to be perfect. While others love the ability to brown their meat directly in this cooker by using the included diffuser, I didn't find it to work so great. The bottom of the pot is not flat. The middle is higher than the sides, so the oil runs to the corners.

My biggest grip is that the stoneware top is fragile. While I was picking it up to stir the soup I was making, it accidentally slipped and chipped the top. It is still functional and it was my fault for letting the top fall against the pot, but I find this to be a problem. The impact was not very hard. I've never chipped any other covers to my other pots or pans. For the price, I'd hope for a cover made of less delicate material.

Otherwise, the cooker does exactly what it is supposed to. Capacity is just as advertised. The dials are great. I love the timer and WARM setting. The handles are great. I just do not like the cover.

I'm giving it two stars because it is so expensive. For the price, I'd expect a simple slow cooker to have no faults. I'd find a less costly, more rugged model if I could do it all over again.

I may call the company and see if they're willing to give me a replacement cover. If so, I'll update this review.
