Best controled cooker ever October 8, 2008
C. Charnock (Fairhope, Al)
Replaces the same one I have had for years. I couldn't fine this one
locally so I bought a similiar one, It was not near the cooker. Found the West Bend on line and was so pleased. I highly recommend it, the control is very accurate and low temp is lower than most for a long cook while at work and ready when I get home.
Great..No Problem August 14, 2008

I own an older version of this. I bought it in 1995. It is a 300 watt as opposed to the 225 watts this one has.
Mine has a glass lid that doubles as a 2 quart casserole. These latest models all seem to have handles. I think mine is a 4 quart.
These are absoutely the BEST slow cookers. They're so versatile and stand up really well.
I'm not even close to being ready to buy a new one. Yes, the non-stick does scratch...all non-stick gets wrecked eventually. I would love it if they sold a model without non-stick. I dislike that stuff. One thing I wish it had is an off switch. I don't like only being able to turn it off by unplugging it.
If these newer models are as good as the old ones, I highly recommend you consider buying this before looking at other 'sexier' brands.
I paid around $35 for mine 13 years ago. I'd say I got more than my money's worth.
 West Bend Slo Cooker July 17, 2008
Ken Blkaney (Oklahoma City)
This is my second oval shaped West Bend Slo Cooker and I like it too...... except maybe for the lid which does not seem to be as sturdy or as good as my old lid..... but the good news is..... my old lid fits the new cooker just perfect.... well almost perfect..... good enough though..... and my old lid actually fits the new pot better than the new lid that came with it...... and my old oval shaped pot also fits the new heater base too..... I'm happy.....

Best appliance in my kitchen! July 10, 2008

This is the best small appliance I have ever had. I have had it 20 years or so. I cook everything in it: pot roasts, pork roasts, stew, pulled pork, beans, etc. I have purchased about 8 of them over the years for wedding gifts, college graduation gifts, Xmas, etc.
There are two main reasons I love this so much. One is the versitility of the heat control. I hate crockpots because all you get is low and high! Give me a break, who cooks like that?? These have settings from 1-5, almost as many as a stove burner. I can brown my stew or roast on 5 then turn it down to 3 or halfway between 3 & 4 or 4 depending on how long I want to be away from the house or want it to cook. The base doubles as a griddle by itself. Takes up very little counter and storage space. The pot goes into the oven or on the stove if you need or want it to. The pot and lid go into the dishwasher, although I ususally just give a quick wash with hot soapy water and wipe off the base. The other reason I love it is it is small and lightweight. No heavy monster crockpots to handle, try to lift full of food and then try and wash!
I have the older model of this cooker that is 6 quarts. At the time I purchased it you had the choice of 4 or 6 qt size. After 20 years I need to replace it, although it still works perfectly, the teflon pot lining is scratched and the teflon coating on the base(griddle) is flaking. But after 20 years of using it 3-5 times a week, its certainly held up wonderfully. I am now purchasing two more, one for me and one as a wedding gift! My only regret is that they no longer make the 6 quart in this model, only the 5 qt. I would recommend it without question!! Enjoy!
