I bought the Food Warmer to facilitate lunch prep at work and it does just that. The temperature of the food is just right, it doesn't take up much room, and it is convenient. The removable bowl is easy to transport and the size is adequate. I highly recommend.
A life saver at work. I'm trying to use the microwave less, so this is perfect. I bought extra inserts & bring both breakfast and lunch. Great for more than just soups and stews. I bring kale, eggs and sweet potatoes made the night before and warm it up in here.... Lunch can be anything from chicken and veggies to a burger or chili! Endless options to put inside.
I really love this for work. I can bring any food leftovers and have them hot and just the right temp at lunch. It doesn't take long but I plug mine in, in the morning and it's like having fresh food at lunch, not microwaved. I even put lasagna in there with the already cooked meat and raw oven ready noodles, I layered it like I would in a casserole and it cooked it through buy lunch. Or I put broth in the crock in the morning and throw in some wild rice and it's done by lunch. This is the best thing ever and I love it. It's not just for soup you can put any leftovers or cooked food in there and it's perfect and like you just made it. You just can't put raw meat in there as it does not get hot enough to cook raw meat safely. I even want to try just putting a leftover hamburger in there with a few drops of water so I have a nice fresh burger that's not hard from the microwave. It's great and I have since been buying them when they are on sale for my co-workers on there birthdays and they love it. I would recommend the lunch crock.
I bought the Lunch Crock because I work out of my car, and I had no way to have a warm lunch. I bought a charger so I could plug the Lunch Crock in. Not only can soups and stews be kept warm, but I wrap sandwiches and hot pockets in aluminum foil to put in the Lunch Crock to keep warm.
I take my warmer to work with me and very convenient to warm it up and have my lunch. I looked up in all stores and web sites, but I trusted to have it directly from CrockPot site and was more cheaper than others in the market!
Great product! The crock-pot lunch food warmer is ideal for me. I take my lunch and just plug in at my desk. A co-worker has already ordered two (2) after seeing mine.
