Okay i really dont have time to ever leave feedback on any of my purchases but i had to make time for this one, it is the best crock pot i have yet to purchase, some reviewers have complained about a chemical smell so what i did is i left this on low for about 8 hours without the glass bowl and yes there was a smell to it kinda like the smell you get when you purchase a new electric heater, after two days of leaving it on with the ceiling fan and opened kitchen door the smell is gone, i love this item because i can see my food and the storage is fantastic the left overs stay in the glass bowl and you close it with the plastic lid, the glass lid you use when cooking the handle does get hot so use an oven mit or towel this is not manul so you have to watch to see when your food is ready, and thats where the glass bowl comes in handy perfect....YAY!!!! for this item, i love it!br /br /br /NOTES: The clear base outside is plastic made from china, which i dont like, it will get hot to the touch but not like it will burn, it does have handles in the case you have to remove the whole unit, the glass bowl is glass and made in france, it has no handles when removing the glass bowl but i found this not to be a problem because the glass bowl itself has a lip around the bowl where you can use an oven mite and pick up....no problem : )

Burning Problem SOLVED! - Mike Shkolnik - Tigard, OR USA
Pros:br /It's clear - very cool!br /Glass bowl easier to clean than ceramic crock.br /No handles on bowl - others list this as a problem but I like it. I don't accidentally pull the bowl out when intending to pick up the whole crock.br /br /Cons:br /It burns food at the bottom, even with LOW setting.br /br /HOWEVER - I HAVE SOLVED THE BURNING PROBLEM! Do a search for "bakeliner" on Amazon - there are many sizes and styles. I suggest either purchasing the 6 inch circle and centering it perfectly or the 8 inch circle and cutting it to 7 inches. I purchased the full sheet at a local store and cut a 7 inch circle out of it and the burning problem disappeared, at least at the low setting. It still burns at the high setting, so don't use the high setting.
