Does it work? Yes. It heats food well and works to that effect. But I'm uncertain about the true contents. The pot looks and feels like aluminum, not stainless steel. And the lid is like no "silicone" I've ever come into contact with; it looks and feels like plastic, or plasticized silicon. So, I'm skeptical and wary.

I absolutely love my lunch crockpot. It is the perfect size to take to work and it's so easy to carry and just plug in to outlet or in my car. I've bought several for friends and family!! Will be purchasing more for coworkers!
