I bought 4 of the lunch crocks. One for each of my daughters one for my son in law and one for myself. I have used mine and the food is really hot when I am ready for lunch. While everyone else is waiting their turn for the microwave, I am already seated and relaxed enjoying my hot lunch.
I bought this for my wife as her office has no way to heat up anything due to fire regulations. The Crock-pot Lunch crock solved the problem. It heats up the food completely and does it without creating any odor of cooking food. It uses about 50 watts so it's safe and office friendly.
I bought two and when our office had a best slow cooker dish competition, I suggested that we buy some to use as prizes. This has turned out to be a great purchase. It looks great and it gets the food nice and hot in a way that can't be compared with heating your food in the microwave. A winner of the contest has been using it to keep some nice, hot nacho cheese at his desk. Needless to say, his desk has been a favorite hangout in the workplace.
I am so super so excited about this purchase. My reason for making the purchase was to keep my nacho cheese hot while hubby and I were watching movies. However, I loved it sooo much that I am now bringing it to work with leftovers in it. I will be purchasing more to give as gifts. One thought, wish that there was a USB cord that could be used for long drives.
I teach yoga trainings and often spend long days at a studio. This handy-dandy little crock-pot is great to heat my food so I can eat something other than a salad. I recommend this to anyone that doesn't have access to (or want to use) a microwave.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] just got this as a gift from my wife and just love it. just wish that there were more recipes for this lil guy . im dying to expirement with it and see what kind of snacks i can make for myself.
I am so in love with this. I needed this years ago. I have never been a fan of microwaves. Because of this wonderful warmer I don't have to worry about getting my food too hot or not hot enough with microwave. And I love that it will wait for me. I can't tell you how many times I have heated my lunch up in microwave and then get busy at work and came back it would be rubbery and cold! Thank the heavens those days are over! I am ordering at least 3 or 4 more to give as gifts and for different dips on game days. I am ordering extra inserts so I can keep them filled in freezer and pull them out to go to work. I work really early and long hours, so I don't have time to prep meals. I see endless possibilities!
