This digital slow cooker is a dream. I have 4 kiddos and with something always going on its hard to make sure dinner is ready at a decent time. This slow cooker is a great size for my family of 6. I love that I can throw my ingredients in their in the morning and not think about it again. I've made pot roast that was amazing. So soft and tender we didn't even need a fork. It's everything a busy family needs for a delicous dinner.
