"Would be better if crock weren't cracked!"
This seems like a great buy, and I'm hoping to try out the small bonus one soon, but my large crock has a crack in it! I'm hoping to resolve this without having to ship the whole darn package back.

"Euro-Pro Cooker"
Excellent slow cooker. I've used it several times for pot roast and corned beef. It cooks vegetables without making them mushy. Very pleased.

"This slow cooker delivers!"
It's been years since we sold our first crockpots in a garage sale. My sister's enthusiasm for the new slow cookers inspired us to check out the options. We settled on the Euro-Pro because of the larger size, the oval shape, and the ability to set a time and have the cooker go on automatic warm when done. We've had it for several months, and we've been delighted with each recipe we tried - best so far is a vegetarian lasagna. It was outstanding. Just one note on the purchase - it includes a bonus little cooker. I'm not sure we will use it. The the big one is great!!

"Sears has similar item under Kenmore brand..."
I was going to buy the Europro, but then found one at Sears with the same functions for only about $35. It is the Kenmore Model 100.68332 - a 7 quart programmable slow cooker. I read the owners manual for the Euro-Pro online and compared. The Kenmore crock functions great. I brought it home and filled it up with water and checked the temperature with a meat thermometer after one hour at each setting. At warm, maintains 120 degrees. Low is 140 degrees. Medium is 160 degrees. High is 180 degrees. You choose the heat setting, then the amount of time. After the time is up, it automatically switches to warm mode. If you use the default setting, High, then it will cook for 24 hours and switch to warm mode. One note is that you have to remember to press "Start" after you enter the amount of time. The only thing it is missing is an auto mode that would, for example, cook at High for 2 hours, then switch to Low for 8 hours, then switch to Warm. Also, I bought mine first online and picked it up at the store. There were some tiny flaws in the crock. So I took it back to the store and opened up four boxes before finding one that had a flawless finish on the crock. 7 quarts is pretty big for me. Wish they had a nice 5 quart round one with this functionality as I mainly use it for stocks and stews. I have used this so far four times and it has worked perfectly.

"Best one I've had"
After going through several slow cookers over the last 16 or so years, this one is the best.

It cooks great without burning, cleans up easily, and the timer works correctly. The quality of manufacture is A plus, and it looks good on the counter top.

Walk though any Thrift or Salvation Army store and you will normally find five to ten units of the other brand of slow cookers that I previously owned sitting on their shelves.

I purchased this one from Amazon over two years ago and it has performed very well.

"Slow is correct if this is what they are selling", I agree with D. Henley
This crock pot slow cooker is a crock!!!
Wasted my money. I have not used it but maybe twice to keep things warm for a party. When I realy needed it to cook it didn't. Unless I had maybe two days to do it in. Which did not happen. I gave up on a pot roast I was doing. Turned off the power after 8 hours put it out in the frige and made something else for dinner.
Got it back out the next day. Turned it on. Cooked maybe another 5 hours,
still not done. Gave up and put every thing in my electric dutch over.
Now we will get to have a nice tender pot roast. The slowwww cooker goes in storage for the next party I have. Just to keep things warm. Which I will start early and make sure I pre-heat.

P.S. The little cooker is great. I think I should have just purchased that at a much more reasonable price.

"Nice addition to cooking", This works really well and you can scale down the recipe or cook a large receipe using this crock pot. Haven't used the small pot that came with this but I am sure it will come in handy sometime. Very nice.

"EuroPro Slow Cooker", Purchased the EuroPro Slow Cooker a month ago and love it. In the past I have had Rivals and never heated or cooked evenly. The EuroPro does as described. I read all reviews on Amazon before deciding to purchase this brand. Thank you all that submitted your reviews, they really help with making the decision.

"KC276T 6 1/2 QT Slow Cooker", After looking at many reviews of all the various brands for 4 months, I decided on this Euro-Pro. It is of good quality and I have held the fully loaded slow cooker by the handles with no problems on several occasions. The programming is easy to do, and the medium setting is a very nice feature that most slow cookers do not have available. The electronics work perfectly, and a fully loaded (to the rim) cooker still cooks all the food because of the wrap-around heating. This is a true slow cooker, that I usually program to cook on low for 12 to 17 hours for most items, and the chicken cacciatore, whole 12 lb turkey, and many stews, etc., have all been cooked perfectly. However, there is a minor flaw in the cooker and that is this: while the lid is flat, it does not fit perfectly in the crock (because the crock is not quite flat) unlike my old USA made Corningware and Pyrex lid on my old 4 Qt. This minor flaw I fix by using a crock liner, which as an added bonus keeps the clean-up a snap! A great price for a terrific slow-cooker. I highly recommend.

"Great Crock!", I purchased the 6 1/2 qrt Euro-Pro Slow Cooker about a month ago. It is easy to use and clean and it does a wonderful job of handsfree cooking! I love it.

"Euro-Pro slow cooker", I have used this slow cooker approx. 3 times now and I have no complaints about it whatsoever, other than I have forgotten to hit the ON button. Ha! I will set the temperature and the time and forget to turn it on. How dumb is that!! Otherwise, it is a great cooker. I haven't used the small cooker that came with it yet.

"Research, research, research....", OK, I'm OCD.

I research and plan and research some more. It took me months to pick the slow cooker I wanted.

I read books on selection of slow cookers and how to use them and how to calibrate them. Thank your lucky stars you don't live next store to me!

This is by far the best of the breed, so far as I can tell. Certainly there are a few things I would change. For starters, I would have a delay start setting. I work nights and get home in the morning, but for some things I will only need 6 hours of cooking and I will be sleeping much longer than that. Fortunately I have a dog walker that comes while I sleep and on occasions, I have her push the start button.

The auto warm is perfect. There is little that I would change about this machine. My biggest puzzle is how another reviewer thinks this one is not hot enough. I have yet to use "High." In fact for most things, I wish the low setting were even lower. It is now 6 months old and I use it three to four times a week.

It was a fine purchase for me. Your mileage may vary.



"Great cooker", My nephew loves it. He's a college student, on the go and finds this a great asset to his busy lifestyle! Easy to use.

"Slow Cooker is a great description...", This cooker, unlike my old Rival Crockpot that I purchased in the 70's, is definitely slow, too slow. I had a pot of pre-soaked white beans in the cooker for about 9 hours, part of the day on Medium, but the majority of the time on High, and I had to move them to the stove to finish cooking them. The temperature on High is like the Low setting of my old pot. It never got above a simmer. I haven't used the Little Cooker yet, so I can't review it. Since it's mainly for dips and not for cooking things, a very low heat would be a good thing. Hopefully that's how it will perform.

"A REALLY GOOD PRODUCT", I FOUND THIS PRODUCT TO BE SATISFACTORY IN PERFORMANCE AND APPEARANCE. IT'S WELL-MADE AND DOES WHAT THE POSITIVE REVIEWS I READ STATED. I RESEARCHED THOROUGHLY BEFORE BUYING, AND ALTHOUGH NOTHING IS EVER PERFECT, THIS CAME CLOSEST TO BEING THE BEST CHOICE I COULD FIND FOR AN OVERALL GOOD SLOW COOKER. I LIKED HAVING THE OPTIONS IT GIVES AND THE LARGER SIZE (WHICH ACTUALLY ISN'T SO LARGE THAT YOU CAN'T USE IT FOR SMALLER MEALS WITH GOOD RESULTS). IT LOOKS GOOD ON THE COUNTER BECAUSE IT HAS A NICE DESIGN. I'VE GIVEN IT AS GIFTS TO 2 PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY, AND HAVE RECOMMENDED IT TO OTHERS. EVERYONE SEEMS TO LIKE IT. READ THE DIRECTIONS WELL BEFORE COOKING AND YOU'LL HAVE EVEN BETTER RESULTS THAN JUST LEAPING IN. SLOW COOKERS HAVE THEIR OWN QUIRKS AND NEED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. I HAVEN'T USED THE LITTLE COOKER YET, SO CAN'T COMMENT.
