The slow cooker is amazing! My husband and I used it to make chili for a cookout! We had to put it in the backseat of his truck and that lid didn’t let ANYTHING spill out of there! It’s also super easy to clean and doesn’t stain easily! One wash and that’s all it took to get rid of the chili mess! It also warms up nicely without burning anything in the pot! The little food warmer is a blessing as well! We got to keep some of the chili in there so we could have some for ourselves after the cookout! Hehe!
