I love my little lunch crock pot. It works perfectly for me. I can plug it in and heat up soup or other homemade lunches. The inside container and lid wash well in the dishwasher. If I could wish for something else, it would be that additional inside containers with lids could be purchased so you could purchase additional ones to have on hand (at work) in case you forget to get the insert out of the dishwasher in the morning so you'll have it at lunch time.
Pros: convient, works great
Cons: additional inserts are not available for purchase
I love this little thing. I can have a hot lunch every day of the week without leaving my desk. I get to work in the morning, plug my leftovers or soup in and by 1100 my lunch is hot and waiting on me. I would like to see a unit with maybe a high/low control and maybe a vent to let the excess moisture escape during heating. Lid tends to be a little drippy when you open. Otherwise, a great little product!
Pros: perfect size
Cons: lid tens to accumulate moisture. drips when openin
I have only had my crockpot about 2 weeks now and I have used it several times with no issues. I plug it in as soon as I get to work and by the time I am ready to eat my food is perfectly heated. I don't feel that the container is too small... it will hold a full can of soup with no problem. I can't believe I didn't purchae this sooner, it works so much better than trying to reheat my dinner in a microwave.
Pros: convienent and easy to use, easily portable, holds the perfect amount of food, heats thoroughly and evenly
I bought this to carry food to work. I work 3rd shift and it is hard to find something to eat in the middle of the night. Also being diabetic it is imprtant that I eat regularly. I saw this at the store at the VA hospital and started to buy it then and didn't. I regretted not getting this little crock so I went on line and found it and ordered it and 2 extra containers. Have not regretted it for a minute. I fix my supper before I go to bed everyday and just grab it on my way out the door at night. This has also been a wonder on my budget cause I am no longer having to stop and pick up something to eat on my way into work at night.
This product is my savior! Warms up soups/chili, etc in a matter of an hour or two and keeps it warm/hot for a long time even after unplugged. Easy to use, easy to travel with and easy to clean. Highly recommended this product to everyone!
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.
LOVE this product - so handy - we use them at work.

The pot warms things up perfectly - great for anything - soup, stew, rice, veggies, meat - everything - and it does not smell while cooking - which is a plus at work. No one wants the smell of food in the office all morning.
I highly recommend it. We are three admins sitting in a row and all three of us use ours at least two or three times a week.
I love this mini crock pot. It holds about 20 oz - more than enough for a lunch. I use it at work and bring leftovers, soup (a Campbells size can fits). Heats slowly and keeps food moist.
I was concerned about the grey inner lid and seal - wasn't sure I could get it off after the food was heated but amazingly, it pops up during the heating process and makes it so easy to get to your food
