I've now bought four of these small crockpot food warmers; one for myself and three as gifts. I work an evening shift and use this for my dinner. It's great for leftovers. I plug it in when I get to work and it's nice and hot by my dinner break. You may need to add a little liquid to your meal before plugging it in so the food does not dry out.
This is perfect to reheat my lunch in my classroom. My son loves his because he doesn't use a microwave to heat things - this is small on the counter and convenient. Highly recommend
I have bought this product for myself and as a gift. No more wasting my lunchtime waiting for the microwave. With this gen I can eat immediately a wonderfully warm meal. Clean up couldn't be easier!!! Love love love this product!!!!!!!❤️
I bought this at first as teacher gifts. I got a great deal when I bought three so I bought one for myself. I have been able to use it at work almost every day since it arrived in the mail. It has been the perfect lunch buddy for me. I absolutely love it. It heats the food up very quickly as well. So happy I made the investment!
I bought three of the lunch crocks since it was a great price. Then I took the time to read the reviews and became worried since most people only used the lunch crock to warm up leftovers or a can of soup which wouldn't interest me at all. I decided to pre-cook meat, put it in portion-size plastic bags and freeze it. The night before work, I put the meat I want in the lunch crock, add whatever fresh or frozen vegetables I have in the house, add some liquid (a little or a lot depending on the consistency I want), maybe some bouillon or broth, some seasonings, maybe grated cheese and maybe a handful of Chinese noodles. I plug in the crock when I get to work and I have a fresh-tasting meal (not leftovers!) everyday for lunch.
I love the way food tastes when re-heated in the crock pot. It tastes just the way it does when you first cook it. Microwaving food ruins food texture and taste. One problem is that the metal rim that the removable container sits on gets very hot. You have to be very careful when removing it so that you don't get burned.
I received 3 nice cute crockpot warmers. would have loved to gotten different colors but only color available was red. nice. only problem I have is leakage once the food is in the inner bowl and the lid is put on and then the outer cover screwed on of the crockpot.
Bought this as an alternative to subjecting my lunch to a microwave. Couldn't be happier Performed well. Only problem is when you start smelling the food and it makes you hungry earlier, HAHA!
