The Perfect Size for us ...,

This review is from: West Bend 84384 4-Quart Oval-Shaped Crockery Cooker (Kitchen)
I've been using various slow cookers for 40 years, and I really do like all of the little features on this one. The handles make it easy to hold, and it heats evenly.
I chose it for several reasons. 1) It is oval. Oval pots allow longer pieces of meat for cooking. 2) Four Quarts is a good size for preparing larger dishes for groups. (I go to a lot of potlucks). 3) At the same time, I can still make smaller dishes in it without worrying 4) It is simple. It has 3 settings, keep warm, low, and high. No fancy electronics to worry about. When my last "Crockpot" broke, I debated between several sizes. I even looked at the fancy ones that had three sizes of pots included. After comparing prices, I settled on this 4-quart cooker. I figured I could buy it PLUS a small one and still have money left over. Add that to the fact that if I bought two different sizes with the base, I could have two different things cooking at the same time, and this was a real bargain. If you haven't used a slow cooker before, depending on what you include, you may need to stir occasionally to keep it from burning/sticking. And, meats cook faster than vegies - so save your rare roasts for the oven - slow cookers are for well-done meat that is so tender it falls off the bone. Do check a recipe book or an online recipe before you start, and you'll be a lot happier.

I like the crock pot. I was looking for one that had a removable pot. The metal container and the lid are lightweight--they do the job, but are not as sturdy as I imagined. I reasoned that for what I paid for this, it was worth the money. I've only used it once, but it did a great job. I was able to put the pot in the fridge which makes it worth the money. It doesn't take up a lot of room on the counter either. If you are looking for something small and inexpensive, this would be a good choice.

I never could cook. I would burn boiling water. But I felt if I could cook something slow like a pot roast or a good old chicken soup this would be my way of doing it without the burn. My first weekend I made a pot roast,and it was great,even my girlfriend loved it. So this was the best thing I could have purchased.
Good quality,easy to use,and clean. 5 stars.
