I have one for work and just bought one for my husband. He loves it and now actually looks forward to packing his lunch for the next day. He'll even use it to just heat things up at home.
I bought this with the intention of consistently taking a meal to work for lunch (as going out was becoming a strain on the budget). This crock is the perfect size for a good portion size, whether it's soup, pasta, or any other item that can be cooked in a slow cooker. I like the fact that with this Lunch Crock Pot, I no longer have to fight for microwave time, LOL.
I bought two of these for my family and they have already been used several times. They are a convenient size that is not only portable but also fits a good amount of food. It takes about an hour to get food from cool to hot so we just plug it in about an hour for lunch. We don't like to microwave our food if we don't have to and this handy little Crock lets us have hot food without the microwave.
Perfect for warming up food. I plug it in, leave it for an hour or even more, and it heats to a nice hot temperature without burning. Perfect portion too.
My husband was the envy of the police department when he brought his in for the first time! He plugged it up when he went on duty and by the time he was ready to eat, so was the leftovers...not to mention he had everyone in the department hungry ;o) It works great, especially when he is on midnight shift and places to eat close before he has a chance to grab a bite. So far, no complaints. A very pleased couple! Thank you for such a cool product.
