This is a fantastic slow cooker. In the month or so that I've had it, I've already cooked numerous dishes and they've all been great.
It doesn't burn the food (like many programmable crockpots would), and the "warm" setting is very useful. Highly recommended product and without complaints. The meals are so big they typically last 3-5 days.

Just make sure to increase the quantity of ingrediants when cooking meals intended for 3 1/2 quart crockpots or smaller.

When I was shopping for a slow cooker about a year ago I wanted something different from the usual round "crock pot" but that would also do the job. When I took this out of the box I knew that I'd hit the bullseye on the looks (the photo doesn't do this model justice) but I had to see how well it cooked a pot of chili. Well, I soon found out I was 2 for 2.

The deduction is for something I hadn't considered when ordering: It's difficult to clean the removable pan. The 9 by 13 dimensions make it a bit tricky moving it under the faucet (even w/a double sink). Your best bet is to clean right away after use.

The plastic snap-on lid is a great way to store the cooked food in the fridge or take it on the road. All in all, a fine product.

This item is listed as a slow cooker, but it really is more like a portable roaster oven. I have owned both and was really looking more for a crock pot type appliance this time. I liked the snap on lid so it can go from cooking to fridge after a meal, then back in an oven for reheating. I was just hoping the "pot" would be much thicker/heavier because I like the heat retention properties of a heavy ceramic pot [stays warm longer on the table]. This product does make meal prep/planning so easy, enjoy...

I have used it for 2 different meals and both turned out great! I like the warm button to keep the meal warm while out and about. The only thing was somehow the teflon got scratched on the first meal, I didn't use metal at all. But like the pan coming out of the cooker for easy clean up.

I've used slow cookers ever since I discovered them in 1983 (yes, I still have my original one), and was "just looking" to see what was new and improved. Well, I saw the 9'x13', 6 quart cooker and thought--hey, I can put bigger roasts in that! I was so excited, that when it arrived, I went out and bought a 10lb turkey breast. This slow cooker had the meat literally melting off the bones! Then I tried a pot roast, it held a 7lb roast,along with whole bags of potatoes and carrots! I quickly had my freezer full of nutritious meals (we're empty nesters) and can't wait to get room to cook more! It's easy to clean, easy to use and the best kitchen appliance I've ever bought.

All items cooked with this turned out well. Very happy with its performance. Roomy too with its rectangular cooking space. Not sure about power consumption though. Maybe a pressure cooker could give it some energy competition, but it works fine.

I have had many crock pots and this the best. I have looked for another one exactly like this...but I can't find it. I take this pot to church for dinners and use it for mashed potatoes when my kids come home. The potatoes stay perfect for hours on end. I also like it because the pot insert is not ceramic. It isn't so heavy to carry. The pot fits on the bottom of my dishwasher and comes out perfect everytime. I would recommend this crock to anyone who cooks !!

I am very pleased with the Hamilton Beach slow cooker. I gave it for a wedding gift and the bride was very pleased... Thank you... mary Ann \Michigan

I desperately need a crockpot that would fit all the stuff I had to put in it. I use all the time and I am glad I purchased it!
