I love this cooking device!! It’s much more lightweight and sleek in design rather than a traditional crockpot. The cook on it is very even. I love that it’s multi use and can be used as a rice maker as well. I made Turkey chili with it recently and it did fantastic with a slow cook setting. I love the way it looks and how easy it is to clean. We’ve tossed out our old crockpot and are loving this new one!
