Customers regard the 3 Qt. Slow Cooker favorably due to its convenient size, ease of use, and affordable price. Many appreciate the consistently tasty results and simple cleanup. A few drawbacks mentioned include the lack of an automatic timer and some minor lid issues. Overall, the positive feedback on cooking performance and value outweighs the reported minor inconveniences.
This is a good-looking crock-pot with its stainless exterior that is easy to clean, and, best of all, the inside 'bowl' can be lifted out and used to store the cooked dish in the refrigerator as well as to clean it. I killed my last slow cooker by accidentally submerging the electrical plug. That whole issue is handled by the bowl liner so that shorting out the slow cooker will never happen. This is the ultimate in convenience from cooking unwatched after setting controls that are specific enough without being fussy, decreasing dishes to be washed, to instant storage [once cooled] in the liner bowl. No wonder many of us say crock-pot instead of slow cooker. This must be the standard in slow cookers. Based on the quality, I expect it to last as long as I do.

No digital readout, no fancy settings, just a basic cooker that does what I need it to do. Three settings (Low, High, Warm) are handy - if it had an auto move to warm I'd give it a five. The size is good for 2 - 4 people or for making enough to have leftovers. The quality of the cooking pot and the outside surface are both very good and easy to clean. The cover does rattle a bit (not a tight closure) but it allows for some of the steam to vent.

A great gadget for small kitchens and helpful when you want to cook in small quantity. Also you cannot beat the price if you find this on sale. Check the local store discounted section on bestbuy.com, where you can find this for approx $9. The biggest advantage is its size. There are more sophisticated ones available, but most are in 5/6Q, which are too big for small kitchens. Durable material. Simple and basic controls. Easy to clean. Using it regularly. Multiple recipes available online. Highly recommended.
