SCD4007

I have looked high and low for a quality slow cooker, but my search is over. This is it! I love it! Easy to use and has three ways to cook on it. Feet keep it from sitting down directly onto counter, plus you cook with the lid closed down, which I have seen warned against doing for safety reasons on other brands, especially Crockpot. The lid locks and the cooker can be carried by the handles. No way to carry from top.

I especially like the chalk surface that enables me to label the recipe that’s inside. It’s high quality and reliable.

I love this crockpot because it is so easy to set the correct level of cooking (warm, low, high) and the time! It will also switch to warm if you are not there when the time is up! I really like the chalkboard finish! I took it to a recent church potluck, and it was fun to identify the contents with colorful chalk as well as listing the main ingredients (which helps those with food allergies!) This crockpot really stood out from all the other stainless steel models! My food cooked perfectly, and, most important, the pot was super easy to clean! One downside, which may not matter to most, is that it does not reach high temperature quickly. So, give it a few extra minutes if you need to add noodles. orzo, pasta, etc., to a recipe at the end of the cook.

The BEST of the BEST!!! This is the Best cooker,value for your money, easy to clean, perfect size, and the lid lock is easy to unlock. Cooking time made easier!! At a push of a button!!

Update of an update: I reached out to Black & Decker regarding this faulty slow cooker and they replaced it with a newer model. I think they know that there are faulty ones out there so if you get one just reach out to them ands they will make it right. I’m still leaving this model at one star because it clearly has issues and I’m not the only one with those issues. Update: I purchased this on August 22, 2023. I’ve used it 2-3 times since then. Unfortunately it is no longer cooking like it should and wouldn’t you know it’s past the return window and there is no support from the seller or manufacturer. I put chicken breasts with broth and turned it on high to get it going then typically turn it down and let simmer until tender. After 8 HOURS on high it would not come to a simmer at all and it didn’t have a lot of broth. The chicken was not cooked tender either. So I put it away and brought it back out this morning to hopefully finish the cooking process and now this morning it’s simmering but barely. I was so hopeful all of these negative comments were flukes and I would get a good one. Well sad to say that’s not what happened so I can not recommend this product at all. Amazon doesn’t give the option to reach out to the seller regarding my issues. There is a link to another site but NO support for slow cookers so what’s the point having the link in there. So now I sit with a moody slow cooker that I can not rely on. I have been looking for a larger slow cooker for months but most has some concerning reviews like breaking glass lids, melting parts, too hot, not hot enough. I was at my wits end trying to find an affordable one to replace my old one that I gave to my daughter. I was almost regretting that I gave it away. I wanted at least a 7qt and one day I just decided to get this brand and I’m thankful that I got a good one. I wanted a locking lid for transporting and 7qts is plenty big. I can’t imagine how big an 8 or 10qt size must be! I want to keen on the digital display because they just always seem to fail so I am hoping it holds up. Right away I washed it and did a crock of chili and it cooked evenly and the temperature seemed accurate. I do like the timer option too to prevent overcooking. I’m definitely happy with this purchase

This product has been perfect as a crockpot. Pros: More powerful than some and many of my recipes on low, so adjust your times accordingly. Temperature control works great on roast or when we are trying not to overcook any meats or even squash. There is one primary spot for the gage, but several other spots you can use so you can get the correct placement. Sous vide is a nice feature, although the water does not swirl (obviously). Locking lid with rubber seal is very nice, especially for travel. Cons: No delay timer. When I plan on having food ready after work, I am forced to lower the cook time down even more since it is likely going to sit on warm for a while. No medium heat. I feel the lack of a medium setting on the crockpot portion led them to make the low a bit too high in temperature. Overall a great piece of kitchen equipment, and for this price point, you really can’t go wrong.

Wasn’t sure about the lock top. But if I knew how much faster using one of these I would have bought sooner. Locks heat in and prefect for transporting meals to parties, social effects and family gatherings. Easy clean up and storage is easy with the locking lid.

Pros: Attractive, easy to clean, easy to operate. Cons: Rubber lid gasket a little tough to reattach after cleaning
