I love the Crockpot 6qt MyTime Slow Cooker. While it's always nice to have meals be simple this appliance makes it even easier. The timer is easy to use and you can go about your day without worrying that your food will be burnt to the bottom. This crockpot makes it easy for even someone new to slow cookers to use and prepare meals. The size is perfect for a small family and we have had room to prepare enough for leftovers. It's sturdy and the crock is dishwasher safe which I love. You can't go wrong with this slow cooker!
