Best Crockpot Ever!
This is the Mercedes of crockpots! Even cooking, NO BURNING, made well, beautiful to look at, delivers yummy meals exactly the way you want them. In the year I've had this appliance it has performed above and beyond any crockpot I have owned (about four). I chose not to purchase the one with the metal insert. I brown/braise foods in another pot and transfer them to the crockpot.
The only fault so far has been that two of the four rubber feet have fallen off but customer service has been most cooperative.
Hopefully this will be my final crockpot. I LOVE IT!
All-Clad Slow Cooker
I have been using my new All-Clad slow cooker for about 2 months now and it is by far the best slow cooker I have ever had. When cooking on low it really cooks on low. I have tryed several others all of which would cook the food to death by the end of the day. Not this one the food is perfect every time. I also like the way is switches to keep warm at the end of your preset cooking time and keeps the food just right for eating.

I have finally found my crock pot!
As a child of the 60s, I grew up with pots of pintos simmering in the crock pot. I still have and love my old cobalt blue Rival, but I wanted something bigger and something that had a timer. I purchased the "updated" Rival with the time settings. After one year, the handle simply melted. Thank goodness Costco has a generous return policy.
After researching for a couple weeks, I zoomed in on the All-Clad stainless steel. I've had her for a month now, and I do believe this is the crock pot I've always wanted. Why you may ask?
1) The 6 1/2 quart is big enough to put in both beef and pork ribs for slow cooked "in a pinch" pulled pork, carnitas and ribs.
2) I love the rubberized edge around the cooker insert. ... Read More
Aluminum insert version
After reading other reviews, I opted for the aluminum insert version of All-Clad 99009 Stainless-Steel 6-1/2-Quart Slow Cooker, which is a Williams Sonoma exclusive. I've never owned a slow cooker before so don't have anything to compare this to, but it's wonderful so far. Because it's aluminum, I can saute in the inner bowl right on the stove without having to wash another pan. I'm a vegetarian and often add frozen products towards the end of the cooking time (Morningstar Farms veg. steak strips, etc.), and don't have to worry about the temperature change cracking the pan. Clean up is a breeze. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is the price - $250 is pretty steep, and with shipping and taxes from WS, the total price was closer to $300.
Most expensive is not always the best.
I just started cooking with a slow cooker and was so pleased with the convenience of leaving for work in the morning and coming home to a cooked meal. Unfortunately I went for top of the line. My mistake as there isn't that much difference between All Clad and the slow cookers that have similar features. Save your money, it doesn't do anything different. When looking for a crock pot also think about the size, I found the 6.5 quart slow cooker to be very heavy and awkward when trying to wash it/rinse it out. Disappointing with All Clad was the lid cover. It becomes so hot you can't pick it up without grabbing a pot holder. My old slow cooker's (the one that started it all -$25) lid I could always pick up during the cooking process without ... Read More
