Some of you people on here must know this. My wife wants a new crock pot. I believe she wants the 6 qt size. What do you recommend?

I have the Crock Pot brand one. Its kind of falling apart after only about 5 years (my last one died but it was a good 30 years old), but it still cooks fine and I'll probably try and squeeze a couple more years out of it; I'd recommend it.

I know two different people with the All Clad and the only complaint (other than the price which is steep) is that they cook just a little on the hot side, but I think this may be true of all "modern" crock pots.

Yeah her old one was a Crock Pot brand, and was done after about 5 years (the handles broke off, the temp knob broke off, etc.) I'm thinking I will stay away from that one and look into All Clad.

You might get 10 opinions here...I prefer going on Amazon and leveraging hundreds of opinions. I would go for the highest rated / lowest price combination. Any of these 4 prob fit the bill

We went from a hip message board about up and coming bands to posting about kitchen appliances.

we all felt it

timmy said it

Wait, what message board was that?

CMJ

What was she doing, bort, wrestling with it?

Pfffffft

talking about food is hip now.

I can vouch for this: Things just randomly fall off. I had to dig through split pea soup to find one of the tiny little screws for the handle once.

cmj was a hip website

a BROKEN hip!

Pro tip: pour water and mulling spices in your slow cooker, set on low, and make your home smell like the holidays any time of the year

What are mulling spices?

it's a fancy way of making wine taste terrible.

Went with the 2nd one down! Thanks!
