Pretty darn good
I have a couple of other crock pots, and I love them for winter meals and to keep some dishes warms for hours. But clean up is not always... a breeze. Frequently, we find that food has stuck or burned to the pot. Well this easy clean, 7qt, easy carry Crock-Pot seems to be worth a try. The inner Crock-Pot is coated with a silver color non-stick surface, or so they say. So I started with the dish I have had the most difficulty with, my extra cheesy mac-and-cheese. Something my kid wishes I'd make more often and in larger quantities. Well I started with a small pot, with 1lb of noodle's, a simple white rue, 1lb Velveeta cheese and 1/2lb of Tillamook Colby Jack, a sweet whole onion sautéed down and 1/2lb of crispy bacon. Once all was combined in the Crock Pot, I cooked it on High for an hour and then low for another hour. This Crock-pot has a timer on it to shift from the High Temp setting or Low Temp setting to warm. I really wish it could shift from High to Low and then from Low to warm, as I've used and done this before. Well, anyway I have some images below that shows how the cheese sause does not really coat and stick to the sides of the Crock pot. I still got a bit browning on the bottom of the pot, the cheese did not stick, and it cleaned up easily. Yea, it past the first big test with flying colors. Next up a Tri-Tip dinner, with portabella mushrooms, potatoes and carrots. Cooked in Beef Broth and French onion soup. I started with a 3lbs roast, which I seared on the BBQ, and then combine all ingredients in the CrockPot, I set the temp on high for 2 hrs, and returned after a couple of hours and changed the temp to Low for another 2hrs. After that it auto switched to warm, and I left it there. Sorry you can't smell it, but it came out perfect, meat almost falling apart. So I'm very happy with the non-stick aspect of this Crock Pot, and the timer works well (30m increments; 7h to 30m); The 7Qt size seems huge, but is an advantage. Except for not offering the ability to shift from high to low, to warms it's an excellent crock pot that looks great, and cleans up easily. The locking lid is really nice to have if you ever travel with your cooked meal.

Easy to Use, Easy Clean, No Sticking
I was in desperate need of a Crock-Pot as my old one from 10 years gave out. I came across this product and quickly fell in love with it. It is easy to use, huge capacity and super easy to clean won me over. There are so many Crock-Pot's out there with complicated menu's and features it is very refreshing to just have one do what its suppose to do with no fuss. I made my famous Cheese Meat Dip and it was super easy to clean afterwards. If you are in the market for an easy to use simple crock-pot this is the one for you. It does one job and does it well with a menu that is super easy to navigate. I strongly recommend this product.

Functional as well as aesthetically pleasing
This is a very nice looking and performing slow cooker. Its about 1 QT bigger than my previous slow cooker and I feel is better because it allows you to cook more should you need to. Crock Pot did a great job on the colors and design. Nobody wants ugly cooking appliances. This one fits in perfectly with the look of my kitchen. My one complaint, and the reason I docked a single star, is the locking lid handles do not feel quality built being plastic and it worries me they may not hold up over time. I have seen all metal before and they tend to hold up really well. The plastic locking handles may also account for why I don’t think the lid locks down really tight like I am used to. I don’t think this will necessarily be an issue because I can tell the lid is definitely sealed. I really appreciate the non-stick insert it makes cleaning up a breeze. I tend to use liners when I cook but having the surface nonstick is definitely beneficial. The temperature is spot on and the programming function is very simple and works very well. Just set your time and let it cook. I really enjoy cooking with this slow cooker and would highly recommend it.

Set the timer and walk away
We bought this to replace our old crockpot that we've had for 15 years. I like that you can set a timer and when the time is up, it will automatically switch to warm so you don't overcook your meal. Its also super easy to clean up compared to our old crockpot.

Works great. I love the digital timer. It can be set for any amount of time not the standard 4,6,8, or 10 hours. The coating inside makes it very easy to clean!
