Hamilton Beach 33135 3-piece Slow Cooker

I have used this slow cooker for several months now, and absolutely love it. Not only does the Hamilton Beach 3-piece Slow Cooker distribute heat well and effectively cook recipes, it also provides versatility that other slow cookers simply cannot. I can prepare smaller size recipes, such as appetizers or small meals in the 2 qt. or 4 qt. bowls. The 6 qt. bowl works well with larger volume recipes. I love that I can use one slow cooker for multiple recipes. It's also nice to have stoneware bowls that I can move from slow cooker to table, then easily clean and stack inside one another for easy storage. It's like having three different slow cookers in one!

I purchased this product because of the versatility of the 3 sizes. I wanted to replace an older too large slow cooker and use less cabinet space. The problem is that it is too tall to fit in my cabinet and I had to make space in my pantry. So, I kept the old one, too! I love the availability of the 3 sizes, but it does cook hotter than my old slow cooker and I am having to learn to adjust my cooking times. I have read that is true of the newer slow cookers of all kinds. I would recommend this product because of the 3 sizes in one, but be aware of the hotter cooking!!

Love the way it stores-doesn't take much room. Cooks not quite as hot as my old crock pot, but meat is tender and that's what I like about a crock pot. Love the black inserts! Clean up is easy. Would recommend it especially to empty nesters. 2 quart size is perfect for 2 chicken breasts or pork chops. But the 6 quart is great for soups. Saw it a year ago at **** and didn't buy it then. When I looked for it this year, couldn't find it anywhere, so went to Overstock and there it was. Glad I found it!
