I have only had my crockpot about 2 weeks now and I have used it several times with no issues. I plug it in as soon as I get to work and by the time I am ready to eat my food is perfectly heated. I don't feel that the container is too small... it will hold a full can of soup with no problem. I can't believe I didn't purchae this sooner, it works so much better than trying to reheat my dinner in a microwave.
Pros: convienent and easy to use, easily portable, holds the perfect amount of food, heats thoroughly and evenly
I bought this to carry food to work. I work 3rd shift and it is hard to find something to eat in the middle of the night. Also being diabetic it is imprtant that I eat regularly. I saw this at the store at the VA hospital and started to buy it then and didn't. I regretted not getting this little crock so I went on line and found it and ordered it and 2 extra containers. Have not regretted it for a minute. I fix my supper before I go to bed everyday and just grab it on my way out the door at night. This has also been a wonder on my budget cause I am no longer having to stop and pick up something to eat on my way into work at night.
This product is my savior! Warms up soups/chili, etc in a matter of an hour or two and keeps it warm/hot for a long time even after unplugged. Easy to use, easy to travel with and easy to clean. Highly recommended this product to everyone!
I keep the pot in my office and take the liner back and forth. It heats up very quickly and is small enough to keep in my desk. I have a second one at home to make oatmeal. I set it on a timer the night before and the oatmeal is ready for breakfast. Perfect and creamy every time.
LOVE this product - so handy - we use them at work.

The pot warms things up perfectly - great for anything - soup, stew, rice, veggies, meat - everything - and it does not smell while cooking - which is a plus at work. No one wants the smell of food in the office all morning.
I highly recommend it. We are three admins sitting in a row and all three of us use ours at least two or three times a week.
I love this mini crock pot. It holds about 20 oz - more than enough for a lunch. I use it at work and bring leftovers, soup (a Campbells size can fits). Heats slowly and keeps food moist.
I was concerned about the grey inner lid and seal - wasn't sure I could get it off after the food was heated but amazingly, it pops up during the heating process and makes it so easy to get to your food
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!
