Question: Is the lid heavy enough so it stays sealed when cooking? The newer crock pot ones dont
Document: Doesn't get easier than this crockpot. Bought it about 7 months ago and use it on a weekly basis. Stews, chowders, meatballs and sauce, roasts, chicken, chilis, sauerkraut and brats -- if I can think of it, I'll try it in the crock. The lid is solid and heavy enough, and fits/seals tightly. The oval shape is actually nice, and the entire unit takes up a very small footprint on my counter. Clean up is a breeze.
This will let steam escape instead of keeping it in. My old crock pot had a heavy glass lid that fit evenly around the crock. Second thing I notice is that it gets hot on the outside. My only concern was that during hot weather, I'd like to keep the heat inside the pot and not in the kitchen.Otherwise, the design is terrific and I'm very happy with the way it works, the shape, the size, and the look (nice looking on the counter).
Just what I wanted. Not as heavy as other ones I have used but still big enough to take a 3lb. roast an potatoes an carrots.
I used this crock pot for about a year (mostly to make steel-cut oatmeal overnight; pot roast never came out tender enough compared to normal braising at 350 in the oven the few times I tried). Over time, the black glaze on the crock started to develop a fine spiderweb of cracks. What's worse, the moisture from washing would seep in there and two things started happening: 1) a brown "liquid" would accumulate in the bottom of the shell during cooking.
So, if I want my chicken casserole to start on low @ 3.00pm and turn off at 5.30pm, I can do that. I don't love the feature that after the cooking time has ended, the food stays warm for seven hours. Several times, the meat has dried out. Not the most useful.- Cheap lid. I found this out when I went to check on some chili. I grabbed the handle and it fell apart! What? Surprised!
I unplugged it, let it sit an hour, which is what they said at Cuisinart I should do (after taking all the food out of it of course) plugged it back in and tried again - same problem! I finally  moved all the food into my old crock pot - which luckily I had saved - and was able to rescue dinner! Cuisinart wanted me to pay for shipping back to them (a fortune for something this heavy!)
The slow cooker performs well. I like the digital convenience, the size, and keep-warm setting. My only complaint is that the lid doesn't seal well enough to avoid a lot of cooking liquid splatter.
I filled the pot with water to verify the actual capacity. It did take 3 quarts, if I filled it to the rim where the lid rests. (In comparison, the old style round Rival Crock Pots take about 3 quarts when filled to a similar level.
I read the reviews of many slow cookers ("crock pots") when I was buying this for my wife to replace our ancient "crock pot". I read about the lack of temperature control, the broken lid handles, the overcooked food, the noise, etc. I decided to buy a little higher end product, and the Cuisinart PSC-350 has not disappointed us.
Two settings and a nob, heavy glass lid, and it never got too hot to hold. Progress as they say....
Answer: yes
