This is the third crock-pot my wife and I have owned in the past decade, and it's taken less than a month for it to completely displace its predecessor. The size is excellent, the quality is very high, and the performance is perfect.
There are several things that I really like:
1) The 6-quart size is more than large enough for most people's needs, and it has comfortably fit meals large enough for both our family and visitors.
2) The ceramic bowl comes out easily for cleaning, and there have been no issues with food being difficult to remove.
3) Being able to use the bowl on the stove top for browning is a great option.
4) The "warm" mode does a great job of keeping food at a good temperature without becoming too mushy or hard.
We've been very happy with this crock-pot, and I would recommend it without reservation.
Because many slow-cooker recipes require a two-step process-- browning/searing meat on the stovetop before slow cooking to seal in flavors, often times you end up with more than one dirty pot to scrub clean. For the ultimate one-pot solution, the Crock-Pot brand designed a stovetop-safe pot that moves from stovetop to slow cooker in one smooth move. Sear then Slow Cook Sear meat for a crispy outside and juicy flavor inside. Saute onions and peppers before adding to soup. With the slow cooker's double-duty removable cooking pot, you can brown, sear, or saute ingredients directly on the stovetop before placing the pot into the slow cooker to finish cooking. No need to dirty unnecessary extra pots or pans along the way. Two steps. One pot. No problem.
