I have used my crockpot twice and it cooks way too high. The first dish I made (on low) the cheese burned after 3 hours when it should have taken 6 hrs to cook. The whole dish was dry and burned. The second time I used it, the chili was boiling and where it should have taken 6 hours, I had to turn it to warm after 3. I don't dare leave the house when it is on.
