Highlights
Quality
Its versatility, ease of use, weight, and excellent instructions are outstanding.
Fist roast cooked for 7 hours and came out pretty good.
First, for appearances, you should brown meat first, which you can do in the pan but which makes for more awkward cooking.
High sets it to 4 hours and low to 6 hours.
Competitiveness
I am familiar with the brand and have had some hamilton beach appliances for decades.
I first noticed how much lighter it is compared to my older crock pot.
