Clever design, well-made
I just got the 3-in-1 a few days ago and have only used it once, but I'm so impressed! I almost got a single-crock six-quart slow cooker before I discovered this one, and I'm so pleased that I purchased this one instead.
Like others, I really appreciate the three crocks, the clever way they nest and that one lid fits all. The two- and four-quart crocks are easier to handle than the six, especially in the sink, so I expect to get a lot more use out of this than if I had gone with a single-crock six. Also, the two smaller crocks fit in my microwave, and the six would not -- very handy for heating the leftovers. I'm glad to have the six-quart crock as well as the other two, though.
The unit seems more sturdily constructed than some I saw in stores. I personally prefer the simple knob over the programmable touchpads. As at least one other reviewer mentioned, the high and low settings really do seem to work.
I wish you could use the lid in the microwave,...
3 bowls, 5 stars!
My mom asked me what I wanted for Christmas, and I told her I wanted a crock pot. This is the one she gave me, and I am absolutely thrilled with it! The multiple bowl sizes are such a great concept. The unit heats up quickly, maintains a steady heat, looks nice, and cleans up easily. It even comes with some really yummy recipes. I've owned other crock pots in the past, and this is by far the best. I've been telling my friends about it and they all want one!
Crock Pot Review
As someone who cooks at least weekly in a crock pot I was fascinated by the thought of having 3 different size crocks. I often use an old 6 quart as well as a 4 quart. I have owned this new set for a few months and am very disappointed in its performance. I have never seen a slow cooker that burns food on Low. This crock pot set will burn foods left cooking on low all day. It is also very hard to get the crocks clean whether by hand or in the dishwasher. I am very glad I didn't get rid of my old slow cookers as I have gone back to using them. They heat more evenly, do not burn or overcook food and are much easier to get clean. I wish I never purchased this set as I have packed it away and have no use for it.
