This has become a go-to-item when I want to take a hot homemade lunch to work. I bought extra inserts so when I have leftovers from the Crockpot dinner I simply put it in the inserts and put into the refrigerator. The next day I take it to work and put it in the Crockpot base and plug it in and by noon it is hot and ready-to-eat!!!
Pros: all pro
Cons: have not found one
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this when we were in the middle of a cold snap so I could bring hot meals to work for lunch.
This works as promised, my meal was nice and hot. I did not have any problem removing the inside tin from the outer part due to it being too hot. If anything the stew was very hot.
My only complaint is with the instructions. I wish they would have noted approximate times this takes to heat up different dishes. I don't think I needed 3 hours for it to heat up the stew.
I would suggest a redesign of the inside lid. When I try to pull it off I am worried the bowl and lid will go flying.
Pros: easy to carry, easy to clean, heats quickly and thoroughly, great value for the $
Cons: i would redesign inside lid, more info on approx heat up times
This thing has saved me probably over thousand dollars over last year. It's great for heating up cans of soup or leftovers. When I bought this I was a little worried about the stainless steel liner, I figured it was going to be a royal pain to clean,but cleaning is extremely easy. I've used this product 6 days a week for a year now only problem I've had is the power cord the shielding is cracking where it goes into the pot
This product heats up my lunch really fast. It is almost too hot by lunch time. It holds just the right amount for one person, although my husband usually needs a little something extra with his meal. I would say it holds about as much as a cereal bowl. Everyone who has seen it wants one of their own!
This little crock pot is very handy and does a great job at warming up food! I usually work through most of my lunches, so it is nice to have my food waiting and ready for me when I get a chance to eat it.
I was wanting something to keep cheese dips warm. I saw these slow warmers and decided to try one. Actually I bought two. They are great. Money well spent.
