Once I received my Black and Decker digital slow cooker, I immediately fell in love with all it's features. I had a very old one where you press a button for the time that it has and that's it. I couldn't set a specific timer with it. With my new one, I can set it for the exact time I need it for and completely forget about it. It cooks WAY better then my old one. And I love how portable it is. I didn't even have to worry about the cover sliding off as it has convenient snap locks to keep it in place. Even more perfect about it, is that it's not that heavy like my old one. I would definitely recommend this to my family and friends. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
