 disappointed October 28, 2008

The ceramic bowl had very little packing and was broken upon arrival. The providing company gave return info and credit without question. I think we would have liked the product very much if we could have used it. The company could not replace the item.
 very happy October 24, 2008

The slow cooker is perfect for large families, we have a family of five and we can use it when we have guest, and it's still enought.
 I have no idea how well this cooks food, I use this to make soap not soup!!! October 21, 2008

Stop reading here if you are planning on buying this to cook food in. I have no idea how well it works for food. I can tell you that it is perfect for making cold and hot processed soap. The low setting is great to melt down the oils I use. For cold process soap I then turn off the crock pot, add my lye mixture and start stirring in the ceramic insert. It keeps the soap warm enough that it reaches trace fairly quickly. For hot process soap I leave the crock pot turned on low and follow my soap recipe directions.
DID NOT LAST as long as our 4 qt. cheapo from 19 years ago September 24, 2008

I used this nice large slow cooker for only 10 months before it just stopped working. It was very well taken care of and only very light usage. My husband took it apart to see if there was something obviously wrong with no luck. Now I will have to start all over looking for a large cooker.
 Good but has some issues. July 29, 2008

I have now owned two of these crocks, a total of two years, and have gotten a lot of use from them. I have a big family that needs more food than the little crocks can provide. It does hold 8 qts. but I am not sure how the manufacturers measure. I am able to do dinner recipies times two. I have noticed that it does cook faster than usual crocks but you learn how long it takes and you adjust. You can not have everything perfect. I bought this crock for its size, not its looks, and it is a fast slow cooker. The sides get hot but so do other cookers. If you are silly enough to want to touch the side of a slowcooker while it is cooking then you deserve to get burned. Everyone should know better than to have anything that is cooking where kids can reach too. I think the stainless steel is like cleaning any other item that is stainless steel. You have to clean it, and if you don't like stainless steel, don't buy it.
Now, on to the reason I am on my second crock. I broke my first when I bumped it, not dropped it and not slammed, bumped it into the side of my porcelain kitchen sink. It broke in half. I thought it was a fluke. I waited a while and found that I could not live with out it so I purchased another one. When I was washing the new one, after I had it for a couple of months, I noticed that it had a crack running from one side to the other across the bottom. This is in the same place that the other broke. So, if you buy this crock make sure you check the bottom to make sure that it does not have a crack in it before you even use it.
Other than these issues, I love this crock pot. It is the only one of its size around and believe me I have looked. It does cook a bit fast but I have learned its tricks. In this case size does matter to me. Enjoy!
