I can't live without it. I have three men in my house that eat unbelievably huge amounts of food, toddler boys that eat like men. My husband, well, eating machine.br /br /I have a bad back and cannot stand long nor bend much. A friend of mine suggested a slow cooker. It cooks slow and fast. I can take frozen chicken thighs and make a full, healthy meal in about 5 hours. I am amazed I did not discover this sooner and really can't live without it now. I can make very large quantities of food and basically go about my day doing whatever needs to be done and not worry.br /br /I have very little time so this is a welcome addition to my home. I just love it. I could probably have bought a "brand name very expensive" slow cooker. Instead I did a lot of research and found this one to be perfect for me. I am happy and the price is definitely right.

It does it All - Davie Hurst - Baton Rouge La
We researched many slow cookers and for the price this one was the best buy. Love the ceramic cooker that lifts out for cleaning. Easy to operate.

Hamilton Beach 33966 Slow Cooker - Billf -
Temperature probe seems to defeat the purpose of a slow cooker since it stops cooking when it reaches desired temp. Should be able to see temp and continue cooking.br /Lid is lower than other slow cooker limiting the size of items you can put in. br /A little pricey for what it does. Quality appears to be similar to those at half the price.

This is my third crock pot. Had to trash the last one because the heating element was very hot, and I arrived home one too many times to find our dinner charred beyond eating. I searched the reviews, bought this one 6 months ago, and I'm so glad I did.br /br /Features I like the best:br / If I'm gone all day and the food only needs to cook for 6 hours, it automatically switches to Keep Warm so the food doesn't get overcooked.br / The meat probe really works to time the cooking for when a roast or other large meat is done.br / The locking lid and big handles make it great to put in the car and bring for pot lucks (no spilled chili on the car's floor when you make a quick stop.)br /br /Honestly, I can't think of any negatives. I use the crock pot at least once a week, especially during winter and this one is the best. I recommend it.

Set it and You Better Check on It! - Anne L. Mann - Katy, Tx usa
I bought this about a month ago and have used it many times. Some things have come out well and others not so well. The catch is this cooker cooks fast and hot even on the low setting. I am a full time home maker so I am able to keep an eye on it all day and change the settings up or down depending on what it seems to need. But if I had to leave it alone all day I would not trust it. If you use the probe make sure it is a big piece of meat so the probe can reach the center. Otherwise the cooker will switch to warm before the meat is done. I am still on a learning curve with this cooker because I have never owned a crock pot before. Once again this is an okay product if you are a stay at home person but for office workers I would find a different product.

Perfect for my large family! - Xina143 - Culpeper, VA USA
Before I bought this one, I had a smaller, round crockpot, which worked fine for us when the kids were little. But fast forward a few years and add a few more boys to the mix and my old crock pot just wasn't working for us. br /br /I actually purchased this model at Costco about 4 years ago, and I have to say-I LOVE IT! The oval shape makes it more conducive to larger pieces of meat. I don't often use the temperature probe, but when I have I have had no problem getting an accurate reading. It is easy to program, and very user friendly.br /br /This was well worth the money, and sees a lot of use in my house.

Works great when the handle isn't broken - ACL -
Used it a few times and it worked well. The handle is cheap plastic and it broke at the base so there is no way to remove the HOT lid anymore.

Do Not Buy this Crock Pot! - David Musgrave - Spokane, WA
I purchased this crock pot with the intention of starting it when left work and having dinner ready when I walked in the door. The one and only recipe I tried said to cook on low for 8-10 hours. The book will advise you that when given a range of time, use the middle. I set the cooker for 8 1/2 hours thinking if it wasn't done when I got home I could still wait a little longer. When I got home my dinner was completely burnt! I also noticed that approximately 5 minutes after I turned it on the outter "stainless steal" part of the crock pot was hot to the touch and that just won't work with a three year old in the house. I will be returning it after I can get the burned chicken and rice out of the pot.

So, I am a Crock Pot Virgin and this is my very first crock pot. What I really LOVE about it, is the 3 different size bowls that nest inside each other making it easy to store. I didn't really know until getting a crock pot that you need different size bowls. So, lucky me, I got this one! br /br /I haven't had a need to use the 6-qt bowl yet, but now that I see it, I worry that it's too deep vs. wide. Some of the other larger 6 qt pots I've seen seem to be wider, which seems like it might good more evently. This fear could be unfounded since I haven't actually used it yet. br /br /Now that I'm learning more about slow cooking, I do wish it had a timer. But have no major complaints and I love that it's smart enough to adjust it's cooking temperature based on the bowl size. The colors of the bowl are nice, which is a bonus.br /br /Definitely would recommend it!br /Karie ([...])

Having the flexibility of three different sized crock pots is great. For my husband and myself, I use the 2 quart size, for company I have the option of using the 4 or 6 quart size. And clean up is a breeze.

Don't Buy This! - J K. - Washington State, USA
This item is overpriced for it's features and the crock is poorly made. I bought one and the crock craacked, so I exchanged it and a few months later the new one cracked again. It was a small crack so I kept using it, and then it cracked AGAIN and the original crack got bigger so instead of 2 tbsp of fluid leaking out during cooking, it just continuously leaks and is unusable. Pshh! I was unable to return it a second time so I have lost my 50$. I cannot find a replacement crock. The West Bend website wasn't helpful. I will not buy West Bend products now. I originally bought it because it is large and has a black + stainless exterior. Also, after the first one cracked I was careful not to expose it to fast temperature changes (which cause cracking). It still cracked.

The removeable insert is a great idea. This easily makes 2-3 meals worth, so you can freeze the extras. It did burn the bottom of the Slow Cooker Lasagna I made, though. I had it on low for 8 hours, which was what the recipe specified, and the bottom scorched, anyway.

West Bend 84716 Versatility 6-Quart Oval Slo-Cooker

West Bend 84716 Versatility 6-Quart Oval Slo-Cooker Review

See more picture

After 15 or more years, my first West Bend slow cooker expired. I couldn't locate another one and never thought about contacting the West Bend Company. I found the Versatility at Walmart on sale for only .95 and almost didn't purchase it due to the size. However, I am so glad I did because it too has performed for over 6 years to my satisfaction. You must READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! The slow cooking units are able to function as a slow cooker or as well as an oven. I use my unit more like my oven by seasoning and wrapping my roast in foil, etc. They cook to perfection with the least expensive cuts of meat being very tender and without a crockpot taste. It is also great for slow cooking, but you must use the slow cooking instructions. When reading the reviews, I realized most people do NOT read instructions. If you make a mistake, it is not this cooker's fault! It is wonderful. My only problem is I had to readjust myself to the oval lid. I have let it slip down into my pot of beans a few times.br /br /Thanks Amazon for offering this wonderful unit. I now know where I can purchase my next one in a few years when this one expires.

For serving, the heating base's temperature control has a keep-warm setting. Medium and high settings permit cooking on the base. The oval aluminum pot, colored black like its heating base for contemporary style, has a nonstick interior and measures 12 inches long by 8-1/2 inches wide, ample for a chicken, ham, or roast beef. A lift-out rack is included for keeping food off the bottom so it can be thoroughly browned during roasting. The pot's glass lid permits cooking to be monitored without releasing heat, and the lid's knob stays cool on the stovetop. For easy cleanup, the pot, lid, and rack are dishwasher-safe. I--Fred Brack/I Imagine having all your meals ready when you come home each day! This 6-quart cooking pot goes from heating/serving to stovetop, oven, refrigerator, freezer or dishwasher. It holds a whole chicken, ham or roast and offers low, medium and high settings for roasting or slow cooking, plus a keep warm setting for serving.

Can't live without it! - Gourmet nurse - Minnesota
This is one of the few slow cookers that you can use on the stove top and on the base. The great advantage to this is that you can brown your meat or bring your dish up to a high heat quickly, then put it on the base to cook and forget about it. It doesn't take as long to cook as a crockery pot yet gives you the safety of flameless cooking. The non-stick surface means clean up is a breeze. I use this at least once a week and can't live without it!

Love It! - S. Gruer - Mexico, Mo United States
This is the 2nd West Bend Slo-Cooker I have had and the only reason I had to buy another is I dropped the base on the floor and broke it. It works much better than a crock pot and I love that you can take the pot off the base to the table. My favorite kitchen item!

not buying crock-pot brand again - Robotmom - Kansas
This crockpot smelled like paint the first time I used it. I wish I had taken it back then. The handle on the lid broke around the one year mark. I called Rival, but they were of no help--the lids were out of stock and they offered no other solutions. I screwed in a knob from an older pot and it worked better than the original one. Then one of the handles on the side cracked. It still worked, but I have to use caution and warn my family when picking it up. This crockpot cooks extremely hot. Most of the time I cook on low, but sometimes warm is what other crockpots would consider low. Somehow a crack occurred around the bottom corner. A crusty line was on the outside of the crock when I removed it for serving. After one and a half years, I'm shopping for a different brand crockpot. My advice--don't buy it!
