Best Crock Pots and Slow Cookers for Parts

One warning - when I bought mine, I made sure I got one with an intact box that didn't have any dents in it, because I figured that one that had been banged around in shipping may have had some jarring to the electronic parts.

The cooker works like a charm, but be careful with the removable parts (glass lid and ceramic insert).

It would also be nice if there was an optional ceramic liner that was divided into two parts, so you could slow cook smalled qtys, or two different dishes.

Best of all KitchenAid is a brand you certainly can depend and rely on for reliability and especially replacement parts if needed.

Even those who had problems got replacement parts, no problem at all.

Customer Service has always taken the defective parts back, and assure me that the problem has happened to only a few units.

This is the first slow cooker I've ever owned that could actually cook the dumplings in just 20 minutes (my rival took an hour and still parts were doughy) Stew was excelent evenly cooked, and on high temp no burned spots.
