Brilliant Idea....terrible execution

My daughter had wanted this electric lunch box for years....I was hesitant to spend the money thinking it would be problematic. I wasn't wrong. Once this thing heats up and the lid seals you can't get the lid off of the food container. You're holding a hot metal bowl with a lid that pulls up instead of turns and there's nothing to get your fingers under to pull with the amount of force you need to get the lid off. Yes, we relieved the pressure with the little valve. We literally broke the container lid trying to get it off. Prying doesn't work either because again, you have to hold a hot metal bowl to get any leverage. Can you please redesign the inner lid? Give it a real handle to pull on or make it twist off ?

My husband works on the road for a utility company and his biggest complaint is that no matter how good the thermal may be, the food is just never warm enough when he goes to eat it. This crockpot is PERFECT! I purchased 2, one for me and one for him. It has a wall plug (goes into a socket) so for my husband we purchased a car adapter that has a socket outlet YES< THEY MAKE THOSE. This has allowed us both to continue eating healthy and he has not stopped for fast food in months now. We make crock pot meals every week and honestly, I spend so much more time enjoying my kids when I just throw a meal together. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. it has a TIN where the food goes and its so much easier to clean than a ceramic piece; the food slides right off. I finally got a hang of the flat cover, it was hard do understand it at first. The cover is very secure and its the perfect temperature; always ready to eat and HAS NEVER dried out my food. BEST PURCHASE EVER
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This small Lunch Crock food warmer is great to warm up food and take to the office. It works great in keeping the food warm and now I have options to change things up at work and not have to eat fast food as often. Looking forward to trying out with different types of foods.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I keep the pot in my office and take the liner back and forth. It heats up very quickly and is small enough to keep in my desk. I have a second one at home to make oatmeal. I set it on a timer the night before and the oatmeal is ready for breakfast. Perfect and creamy every time.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had this pot for at least 5 years now, I use it almost everyday for work. So much nicer than standing in line for the microwave. Works great!

Problematic

The instructions indicate to keep the inner lid on during heating, but the webpage says not to. If you keep the inner lid on, it will warp and won't seal in the future, even after cooling down. If you keep the inner lid off, condensation will drip out of the outer lid and your food may dry out. This item would work if they gave you one inner lid for heating and one for transporting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love it! Warms the food and it is ready by lunch time if I have it plugged in a couple hours before. I just wish the inner lid would stay tight. After using it once, the lid now doesn't stay tight and just sits on top of the inner container.
