Crockpot 2-Quart Classic Slow Cooker Small Slow Cooker Black

Long time ago I purchased this exact same size crockpot in red. I was very pleased with this size crockpot, so I decided to purchase a second one.It’s a great price! The box was not crushed or torn and inside the crockpot was very well packaged. It arrived 2 days early from the due arrival date.The lid was not wonky and it sit well on the crockpot itself even while cooking.No dents on the crockpot either after I inspected it after delivery and opening the box.After washing just the inside cooking bowl and lid only it was ready for my little 1.75 lb pork shoulder. Cooked on high for 4 hours, shredded the meat, then added my special bbq seasoning and it went on Low for about 2 hours to get the seasoning well enough into the beautiful shredded meat. I love the “warm” button too. Kept the meat warm for second sammiches.The crockpot worked well! I placed mine on my stove in between my stove burners ( where I have room for this size crockpot).The crockpot has plenty of capacity room for cooking little meals for 2 people.Well worth it and the price. Easy to clean!I used my red crockpot for making my fabulous cowboy beans on a low cooking setting and cooked for about 1.5 hours., to go with the bbq pork sammiches.I’ve used the black crockpot since for a stew, soups, bbq chicken, etcI have the red crockpot and wanted a black crockpot too since my kitchen colors are red and black.

Perfect one to three serving size for meal prep. Enables smaller batch cooking that is deep enough to submerge ingredients when a regular size crockpot would make the smaller meal too shallow for long cooking.My only concern is that the lid makes an odd click noise occasionally when heating/cooling. It is not the heating element or the crock. I am concerned that there is a hairline crack in the metal rim or the glass that could cause a problem with repeated use.

This little crockpot has been a perfect addition to my daughter’s dorm room. It’s the ideal size for small meals—big enough to make a couple of servings without taking up too much space. She uses it to prep meals in the morning, and by the time she gets out of class, she has hot soup or a simple dinner ready to go.It’s easy to use, easy to clean, and perfect for busy student life. Reliable, compact, and super convenient—definitely a great buy for college living!

Okay I use this thing for literally everything! From heating up my husbands lunches, making small meals just for my kids when they don’t like what Im making for dinner, and even warming up my youngest bottle. I absolutely love this thing. It heats up fast, and it’s super easy to clean it. It’s super light weight and compact so storing it isn’t a problem (even though it’s on my counter most of the time). And for the price? It’s a win all the way around. I definitely recommend having on in the house.

Very good product, which I can highly recommend. And Amazon has a number of decent recipe books for these small-size slow cookers.I only cook for myself now, so the small size is ideal. It's big enough for two single portions out of one cooking session, one for day of, and one for fridge or freezer. Temperature control is excellent. Only one minor complaint keeps it from 5 star rating... a pilot light to indicate when it was heating would be very helpful addition for us old forgetful guys... it just sits quietly on my counter and it's easy to forget it's still on.

Love this little slow cooker! I have a large one too and I always end up cooking WAY too much in it. This one is a great little alternative. I love when I cook a chicken I can make an overnight stock with the bones without ending up with gallons of stock — it makes about a quart of stock which is perfect!! It’s also fantastic to keep gravy or cheese sauce warm for a gathering. Over all extremely happy with this and use it so much more than I thought I would.

Beware. The setting dial starts on the left with 'off, " then low, then high. Then warm. I just turned the dial all the way to the right, without really reading it, because I never expected warm to be the last option. I wondered why my meat was not cooking after 2 hours. These settings should be off, warm, low, high. Now that I have it on high it seems to be cooking just fine. Other than that, it is a wonderful Crock-Pot and I love this small size. Other crock pots so heavy for me to lift in and out, but this one is perfect.

Perfect size for my husband and I! Easy to clean! Works well! Should have ordered a few years ago - right weight, too, as I’ve arthritis .
