Customers appreciate the slow cooker's size, being large enough to hold an entire chicken, and its cooking performance, with food coming out delicious. Moreover, the design receives positive feedback for its no-fuss approach and lid stand, while customers find it works well for the price and is easy to clean. However, the heat level and build quality receive mixed reviews - while some say it heats up nicely, others note it runs hot, and while some find it well-built, others report it cracking within 1-1/2 months of use.

Super Sized great Slow Cooker

Super Sized great Slow Cooker
I've come to prefer Hamilton Beach slow cookers over Crock Pot brand. I just purchased this slow cooker, at Walmart. It's a beast! It's heavy, you can really tell the size difference in my 5qt. I got this for canning & chili & soups. You could probably fit a small turkey breast in it, sideways. I didn't want to spend a lot bc I won't use it often. It's exactly what I wanted. Works great. My pic is the 8qt. beside my 5qt. cooker.

    The seller was Amazon. I paid 35 bucks.

    This slow cooker works well for me. I've been using it for 9 months so far...no problems. It does have a hot spot on the left side, but most crockpots have hot spots (usually there and on the front). It holds exactly 8 quarts; some slow cookers hold less than their advertised volume, but not this one. Can't beat it for the size and price.

    The outside does get hot, so use the handles if you have to move it while it is "on". The cord is long enough for me.

    Need a timer? I got an Intermatic TN311 15 Amp Heavy Duty Grounded Timer to use with the crockpot, and it works great. I turn the timer and the crockpot "on" manually. For the timer, I only use an "off" tab (so it goes "off" when I want, and it won't turn "on" again...unless I manually turn it "on"). This works very well for me. And it beats buying an expensive crockpot with built-in timer.

    I also have a Hamilton Beach 5-Quart Portable Slow Cooker. It was my first slow cooker. I like the 8 quart model much better, because I don't have to worry about filling it up.

    According to the instructions, there is a minimum fill line. They recommend to fill it at least 2 inches from the top for proper cooking (more is fine, less is not). None of my recipes are below that line.

    The lid seems fragile, so I am careful with it. The stoneware insert is well made and heavy duty, but I am careful to let it cool down before adding cold water to it (to clean it). I am very pleased with my purchase.

    Arrived in a badly damaged box with the seam on one side mostly open. Looked like someone hit it with a baseball bat. Large dent near the bottom was so bad that it wouldn't even sit level on my kitchen counter without rocking and teetering. Replacement arrived today (2 days later) in much better condition. Better stronger box and the cooker looks perfect. Will write an honest review on that one after I've had it for awhile to be fair.

    Now that I've used this 3 times a week for almost a month I can honestly say that I really like it. It's large enough to hold an entire chicken or even a small turkey. I notice that this unit seems to cook a little bit hotter even on low setting than my old Rival unit did. It seems to be pretty well designed. The main housing that the crock sits in could be a little bit heavier gauge metal to make it a bit more sturdy but it doesn't seem to pose any problems as of yet. I suppose that if they made it thicker it would probably be too heavy for some folks to pick up and move if necessary, especially if it's filled with a large roast.
  • Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2016
    I bought this about 2 months ago or so and it is great. I can come home for lunch and quickly preheat it on high for about 15 minutes, while i am preparing a 3 pound brisket, whole chicken, pork loin, or roast and cut up some vegetables and then put it on low for about 7-8 hours and when i get home dinner is ready. It's easy to clean and i've used it at least 10 or 15 times already. If you are putting vegetables in there, i'd recommend making sure you cover them inliquid or put them at the bottom or add a can of broth and then turn or submerge them every few hours.Otherwise, they may not be as cooked or soft as the other vegetables near the bottom. Also one thing i have learned is that onions and garlic should be browned in a pan before adding them. They taste much better. For some reason, onions taste more raw when dumped in without browning. It's a lot easier to cook briskets in this than my smoker and you can buy (2) 2-3 lb. briskets and cook them in there side by side. It will be a little tight, but they will fit.

    This is a great slow cooker for one or two people, not too big and not too small. However, if you have a large freezer and desire to make more than one or two meals at a time, you would want to go for a larger size. Prior to this, I was using a Crock Pot that my mom had purchased when they first came out (Yes, they used to last forever). I can't use the Crock Pot in the summer since it throws enough heat to warm the entire first floor of my cottage. This Hamilton Beach Slow Cooker does not even heat my small kitchen. Before bed, I put even tough cuts of meat in this and set it on low for the next day's meals. It works like a charm and doesn't trigger the air conditioner. But honestly, I will go back to my mom's Crock Pot when winter comes, It actually keeps my gas bills down just as the Hamilton Beach saves me money on electricity in the summer. This slow cooker can sit on my small kitchen counter easily because it does not have a big foot print.

    Just the right size. I was using a 6qt and it would end up filled to the top. This makes enough for about 7 or eight people depending on what you are making. I make a lot of soups and chili but plan on using it for other recipes as well. The interior crock is a glossy black, I have found that even when I clean it there seems to be a discoloration in the interior of it. I have not used anything harsh to clean it as I did not want to scratch it. I use green Palmolive dish soap. It does not affect the cooking of it, and you don't see it when it has stuff in it cooking, just when it is empty. Really that would be my only negative as it functions perfectly and otherwise looks great. The additional knob to keep warm in addition to the low,high and off knobs are nice too, especially if you don't want something to cook more just stay warm till you serve it. I also like that is has knobs as some electronic controls can be more likely to malfunction.
