I think they did something wrong with the temperature on this crockpot. It burns everything. I have even tried cooking items on the low setting at the high temperature times. It still burns things. While the timer feature is nice, you can't use it to cook items all day long.

This review is from: Rival 6-Quart Oval Countdown SmartPot Stainless Steel Slow Cooker (Kitchen)

I bought this primarily to make slow cooked stews with and it delivered. I cooked my food on low for 18 hours and only the outer edges of the top surfaces were crisped. The other 98% of the food was tender and delicious. I'm guessing some have had problems because the food they tried was harder to keep moist. Slow cooker foods need water (for stews) or moist vegetables (onions) to keep the juices flowing and prevent the food from drying out. Also, this model was great because it had a timer so you could always set it to cook for less even in the recipes that don't have too many liquids. The booklets that come with the cooker are filled with handy tips (one hour of high = two hours of low, how much water to add per amount of food....). And the pot was pretty easy to clean. For a novice like myself, this was great.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a slow cooker at all!, October 23, 2007

I followed all directions to the letter and this appliance burned everything. Even the lowest heat was very high. Would not advise it being left unattended for this reason and that, in my opinion, defeats the purpose. Perhaps other Rival models perform, but I won't risk it. I replaced it with a Kitchenaid slow cooker.
