This is a nice slow cooker. It's well made and easy to use. It works as well as my previous slow cooker, but has some nice additions to it. I really like the temperature probe, and the sous vide is a nice addition as well. My husband has been experimenting with this feature as it’s what caught his eye. He has perfected pork chops and every weekend picks something new to use the sous vide option. It's easy to clean, and I like that the pot and lid can go in the dishwasher. It’s well made and works well.
