Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Good purchase
Really enjoy having a digital timer for a small size slow cooker - only 2 people in family.
Rating:  - Very poor quality
Poor quality all around. My first experience was removing the unit from the box - The handles on the sides of the unit are plastic, coated with a metal plating to give them that polished look, almost like a thick layer of metal foil. The foil on one the handles had lifted and shredded somehow so that I was left with a deep cut on reaching in to pick it up. Anxious to give the slow cooker a try while the wound healed, the pot cracked on the first use. As others have noted, this $35 replacement part ... Read More
Rating: - Quite pleased
I have to say I was a little concerned about trying out a 4 quart pot. But, since we generally cook only for the 2 of us it made a lot of sense.

The heat is fairly constant but there is quite a big difference between high and low settings (a medium would be good as opposed to the even lower simmer.)

Rating: - Great for boiled food
Avoid the high setting unless you want boiled food. I made split pea soup and got carrot & pea mush. I had a couple of stalks of celery in there, but they are nowhere to be found now. The carrots have the consistency of paste. I measured the gruel with a Thermapen and sure enough it was 212 degrees.
Stay with the low setting, watch it like a hawk, and you'll be fine - but you can do that with a pot on the stove and save yourself $70.00+.
Rating: - Best Chicken Stock
This is great for a small family. Have made soup, stew, and meatballs, which were really good, but just made chicken stock for Thanksgiving cooking using the recipe in the Cuisinart book. Better than Alton Brown's recipe and not nearly as complicated and time consuming. This is the best slow cooker I have owned. It is worth the money.
