I bought as a gift for myself this Christmas. I love the winter comfort foods like goulash, soup, stews and chili  but don't love the time a slow cooker takes and don't like keeping stove burner on to keep things warm, so I had to cook on stove top then keep warm in slow cooker. What a hassle and too many dishes.
This multi pot solves that problem. Cooks fast then keep warm all in one pot. Love love love it!!! Will be buying as gifts for others for sure.
