Works fine, but nothing special
I have been using the Euro-Pro 7-Quart Slow Cooker for about 4 years. It works fine, has a large capacity and there is a true difference between high and low heat. The "stay warm" feature is great and really cuts down on the hard to clean baked-on food that can happen when you keep the food on low for too long. The removable insert is easy to clean, since you can soak it without worrying about getting the wiring wet. The mini cooker that comes with it is ok - I certainly wouldn't choose this cooker over another one based on getting it for free, though. It only has one heat setting and doesn't seem to heat very evenly, even though it's so small. It could really have used a "keep warm" feature, since it's perfect for warm dips and other party foods that are going to be left out for a while - it keeps a little too hot for me. If I was going to buy a new one, I'd get one with a stove-top safe insert, so you can sear your meat, start your vegetables, etc. in the insert instead of having to dirty a pot and then transfer to the slow cooker. Overall, the cooker is fine, but if you're interested in more frills you may want to shop around.
