I bought this for my husband who works on a construction sight. The microwaves and vending machines are in a different trailer on site and it is not always handy to walk over there to warm up your lunch especially if it is pouring rain. When it came I was surprised it was smaller than I had expected, but it fits very nicely into his 6pk cooler sized lunch box that he carries (like most construction guys). He plugged it in and his office started to smell his lunch and they were all like what is that? He told them and that night a whole bunch of them wanted the link to where I bought it. He said he plugged it in about an hour before lunch and it was perfect temperature and ready to go when he was ready to eat. He did learn the hard way that you should take the clear top off the internal cup before heating. It can just sit on the top, but not secured for easier handling. I bought him an extra cylinder so one can be filled when one is dirty. All and all it is a great little product that works as intended and is a great price. I think this would be great for a college kid as well. A retractable cord on this thing would be awesome!
Pros: fits in a 6pk cooler to carry other lunch items
Cons: cord is a little short
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect size, food is heated through and through not like the microwave, cold in spots. I bought one for my husband too, we both keep the bases at work and bring the bowls back and forth.

I absolutely LOVE the lunch crock. It sits on my desk at work and I use it all the time through the cold months for lunches (soups, chilis, burritos (filling in the crock, add to tortillas), leftovers, etc). Sometimes I even use it twice a day for breakfast at my desk too (frozen egg/cheese/meat scrambles - they heat up perfectly in the lunch crock) so I had to order extra containers. Basically, anything you could heat up in a microwave can be put in the lunch crock. And it's always heated thoroughly and doesn't taste like it's been nuked like microwave food does. I find soups only need about 1-2 hours to fully heat up. I always have to turn it off when I get ready to eat the food because it keeps everything so hot. Only one "complaint" - wish it had an on/off switch so I don't have to crawl under my desk at work to plug it in and unplug it all the time. Otherwise, great product and I love it! I've bought a few more for friends and family. The lunch crocks are the perfect size and the handle makes it easy to carry if you want to take the entire unit back and forth. I really recommend this product for hot lunches!
Pros: perfect size, heats up quickly and evenly
Cons: no on/off switch on unit
I would recommend this to a friend!

I use this every day at work for my lunch. I leave the base at work and bring the food container with me in the morning, drop it in, and by lunch time have a nice hot lunch. Sure beats having to use the dirty microwave that everyone else uses! I've heated up soup, meatloaf, pasta, rice, chicken, and it all turns out great.
Cons: wish it had an on/off switch

Used it to warm up soup. It heated up perfectly in a couple of hours. Only a couple of things could be improved:
1. The cord is a little hard to rewind back into it's slot (but you can just leave it unwound if you like).
2. The lid is a little hard to screw on... you have to lay it on perfectly for it to catch.

Other than those 2 minor inconveniences, so far the little warmer worked like a charm... and it is so cute! :)

I love being able to finaly eat a hot lunch at work without having to purchase one there in adition to our monthly grocries. The only problem I have with my lunch crock is that the plug will not always stay cliped under the unit when the cord is tucked around the crock. However I am more than willing to put up with this in return for a hot lunch.

I LOVE THIS LITTLE POT! I have't found anything that I can't heat in it! This will be my Christmas gifts for this year! Homemade burritos wrapped in foil..heated to perfection! Healthier too. Think about all the plastics in your microwaved food..well yuck.
Pros: easy to use, no plastic by products leeching in food, easy clean up
Cons: awkward cord storage
I would recommend this to a friend!

I liked this lunch crock so much I bought it for others. I plug it in and it cycles on and off as needed, no stirring required.
Be sure to secure the outer cover tightly. The inner cover pops up after some time to let steam escape.
Note that this is not a three prong appliance if your work requires that.
I bought extra inserts. They are frequently noted as "out of stock" on the website, but they are available periodically. You just need to keep checking the website and then order them when you see they are available.
I would recommend this to a friend!
