Hamilton Beach 33134 3-in-1 Slow Cooker with 2-, 4-, and 6-Quart Crocks

I got this slow cooker to save space. It is still big, but I now have the versatility of 3 sizes in one space. It also looks attractive on the counter. So far, I have used the smallest and the largest pots and the cooking has been even throughout.

I recently used this slow cooker for the first time to make ribs. After cooking on low for 10 hours, the ribs were falling off the bone tender and delicious. Clean up was very easy - just a matter of washing the bowl. I'm very happy with this purchase. Having 3 different bowl sizes is extremely convenient. The bowls themselves are good quality (ceramic I think) and useful even when not using the slow cooker - I have used them as mixing bowls. The heating portion of the slow cooker is very light weight & the bowls are not too heavy. I have only used the slow cooker once so far, but I am very happy with this purchase.

Fast shipping. Excellant product. Could have use more packing for shipping. Upon delivery, the box was a bit beat up but the product was fine.

I've never had a slow cooker or crockpot before, and I don't know why I waited! If you're no great shakes as a cook, like me, or have a finicky husband, like me, this is for you. It's really simple to use, and the three pots are a big bonus. The two quart bowl is perfect for my husband and me alone, and the larger sizes are great for big groups or to make extra for freezing. I got a few books to start me off--I'd suggest 1,001 Best Slow-Cooker Recipes: The Only Slow-Cooker Cookbook You'll Ever Need for lots of easy to prepare, healthy recipes for just about everything. Has excellent nutrition information too.

I purchased this about a month ago. Having three sizes of bowls is great. I've been able to use the four quart for my family and the six quart for holiday parties. The ceramic bowls on their own are great. My only issue is that low seems to run a little bit hotter than normal so I use warm more than usual.
