I just picked one of these up. I was looking for a low energy consumption cooking device for camping. I purchased a small solar generator/ battery bank. It was the smallest big battery I could find. Max energy pull is like 75 watt. Even though this crockpot is like 50-60, I didn't have high hopes my battery could handle it. I got an extra insert as well. As soon as I got home I plugged it in and tested. It's not going to be the fastest method of cooking but I'm excited to wake up, plug it in, throw in some oatmeal, tend to the fire, take the dog for a walk, and come back to the camp site to a warm breakfast. No more energy bars or dried fruit. Should be excited to come up with new recipes for it. I figured I'll get maybe 3 hours of cooking before I need to charge my battery. Heck I can cook in the tent if it's raining. I'm really excited.
As a classroom teacher, I have found this to be an amazing time saver and a great way for me to up my good food intake and reduce how much food I need to microwave. It is easy to use, convenient, it heats food up to near-perfect heat for lunch, and it is darn cute.
I have a new one, and I have to say I like the old one with the cord didn’t come off because this cord always is falling off. And I have friends that want one but now everybody is price gouging them since it’s been on TikTok. Sad
My husband read about this for teachers and asked me if I would like it. It was sort of a joke because it was an ad. But I said it looked interesting and he bought it for me for Xmas. I have to tell you it is great for teachers. We are not allowed to have microwaves in our rooms for fire hazard reasons. Plus, our lunch is 30 minutes and I am all the way at the back of the building. So, I literally don't have time to heat up food and then eat it. What started as a joke ended up making my life so much easier. I actually hot meals every day now. My only wish is that I could buy a second insert to rotate them out.
I got this for christmas and have been using it a lot in the office. We have microwaves but they are gross and there is always a line. So instead i use this at my desk. I think it heats more evenly and then can just eat when ever i have a chance without having to wait in the microwave line and then carry a hot container back to my desk. I really want to buy one or two more inserts but can't seem to find them anywhere. Hoping they are just out of stock and will be available soon.
