The pot is super heavy, as it should be, but the other part of the cooker is incredibly lightweight. We are so very pleased with how easily it cleans.

All you need to do is fill up the pot with all the receipes and set the timer. It is pretty safe with the programming and will shut off when the timer reaches zero. It will automatically switch over to keep warm when the cooking time is over.

Love the size of the 6qt. It's bigger than models in the past few years and much easier for my pudgy fingers to get a decent grip on. The controls are very straightforward.

The non-stick surface makes it a winner in my book because it wipes clean easily without leaving a ring of grime. The ceramic coating is nice. The only downside is that the crock itself cannot be placed in the dishwasher.

This crock pot is easy to use and versatile enough to cook a lot of different foods. Cooks fairly evenly, and i have not had issues with hot spots or uneven cooking.
