As always crockpot continues to make sturdy and reliable products. I didn’t expect anything less than excellent quality when opening up my new crockpot. The brand has always been a staple in my household and highly recommended by family and friends. I absolutely love this crockpot. The locking lid is as one of my favorite features is it gives me peace of mind while I’m driving to a pot luck with my crock pot in tow. But let’s not forget the Little Dipper! Such a convenient dish to pair with my amazing crockpots
