1.0 out of 5 stars Over cooks everything!, January 15, 2009

We bought this crockpot at Home Depot last year, for 19.99. I have used it constantly, for many different meals, and always on low. It has, without fail, overcooked everything in sight! My friend, who had one of these, warned me about this, and I thought, whatever! but she was right. I have never had a crockpot that boils everything vigorously on LOW! The lid rattles constantly during cooking, because of the boil. Take it from 2 people, this crockpot you cannot leave and come home to,or you will have a dried out burned meal like we have. We're having to spend the $ to buy another one, cause we're finally fed up with this one.

2.0 out of 5 stars Cooks too hot!, October 4, 2009

I've owned this crock pot 2 years, and I've learned to adjust cooking times, etc, but it cooks way too hot on low. Hot isn't much different than low, warm works fine. Yesterday the handle broke. It's out of warranty, so I went to order the plastic replacement part. They are out of stock. I could order another lid, but it's $10, and another $9 for shipping. For a $40 crockpot that's two years old, I won't bother. I'm just going to replace it with another brand.

1.0 out of 5 stars Little dipper is a true "crock", July 8, 2009

I have a "Little Dipper". Please be aware that you CANNOT cook with this--though that is only indicated in the instruction book. The cord for this cooker is too short for safety, making it virtually mandatory to use an extension cord. So much for safety. This is apparently designed for the narrow use of keeping dips warm. This might be acceptable, but the temperature is below the 140 degree level considered a minimum for safety by food service professionals. Also, you really have to heat the food separately and then put it in the pot--a real nuisance. The clincher is that it's a real pain to clean. Do not consider this Little Dipper a "bonus"! Instead, consider that it probably needs to be discarded.
