It is an ideal size for small recipes for 1-2 people, with limited left overs depending on how much you eat, fill your plate or just 1/3 your plate with other sides like a veggie & potatoes or roll. But it doesn't fit everything that you would want to make. Realistically you will likely need both a 3.5 and 5 quart crock pots to select based on the size of the recipe. We still use this 3.5qt most for 2 of us, but have on occasion found it filled too quickly and switched over to the 5qt. Remember, any crock pot should only be filled to 2/3, not the top that is shown in all pictures on any box. We had started with a lot of veggies and potatoes and found we were already at 2/3 on this 3.5qt before we could even add the meat, so we switched to the 5qt. But then you do not want to always use a 5qt either, because you do not want too little in. So we end up using this 3.5qt most for the 2 of us, but have to occasionally use 5qt. The 3.5qt pot is easier to clean because it is smaller and weighs less than the 5qt. The construction and quality of this pot seem very good to us. The lid is standard thickness for crock pots, and there doesn't seem to be any need for it to be heavier while it is cooking. It does build up condensed water around the ring of the lid and bubbles out during cooking as it continually pushed out steam. The 4 settings seem to give you plenty of flexibility, but we use low for most, and the automatic switch to warming mode is nice. The recipe book was actually nice compared to a Crock Pot brand 5qt (that we also like) that claimed a recipe book, but really only added a few pages at the pack of its manual. This one is a nice spiral bound book, but no pictures. We couldn't always just set it and forget it, or just follow the exact time on the recipe. You really have to experiment to find the ideal cooking time for you. We found our recipes are done earlier than the usual 8 hours stated in our recipes, and ended up getting overcooked. So you make it once, realize it is dryer or veggies are overcooked, so you reduce the time next time. So the meals weren't perfect the first time we did any recipe so far, but were better the second time around when we made cooking time adjustments. For example, the first meal shown in the video was overdone, apples overcooked, and meat was a bit tough, which I think you can see in the video. So next time, just cook it less. For some meats, you really should test with a probe thermometer to ensure it is safely cooked, but hopefully only to confirm it is done, not to check frequently because you have to add cooking time every time you remove the lid. For the second meal shown in the video (pulled pork), it too cooked longer than needed the first time, and was better the second time when we checked the temperature earlier and confirmed done earlier. The best success we had with this was making pulled pork. Btw, I skipped showing the steps testing the meat temperature, adding the BBQ sauce, and using a fork to shred the pork. Review: Amazing product. Does everything! - Title: Perfect All-in-One Cooker — I Use It Constantly! Review: I bought this Cuisinart four-mode cooker because I wanted one appliance that could handle multiple cooking tasks without taking up a lot of counter space. It can sauté, steam, slow cook, and roast — and it does all of them really well. First impressions: When it arrived, the first thing I noticed was how solid and well-made it felt. The controls are simple, the inner pot is sturdy, and nothing feels cheap. Performance after real use: After using it often for several different meals, I can say it’s become one of my most reliable kitchen tools. I love being able to sauté meat or vegetables right in the same pot before switching to slow-cook — no extra pans to wash. It cooks evenly, heats up fast, and everything I’ve made has turned out great. Pros: • Very versatile (sauté, steam, roast, slow cook) • Saves time and reduces extra dishes • Easy to clean • Solid build and reliable performance • Great for everyday cooking Cons: • None so far — it’s performed perfectly for everything I’ve used it for Would I buy it again? Absolutely. It’s one of those appliances I reach for constantly, and it has replaced several other gadgets. ## Features - ENDLESS FUNCTIONS: Slow Cook, Roast, Brown/Saute or steam– Slow Cook on high, low, simmer or warm for up to 24 hours.

We are a small family of three with limited cooking space but think the 4 qt. too small. Suggestions?** A: While I do not own this particular one, I do own a couple of slow cooker crock-pots. One is 4qt. and the other is a 6qt. Here's the deal - once you get used to using a slow cooker, you will want the biggest one you can get(or fit on your counter-top). I haven't used my 4qt cooker for years, because you can always use less ingredients in a larger pot - but you can't fit 6qts. of ingredients into a 4qt. pot. I buy a load(at least 20lbs or better) of frozen boneless chicken breasts whenever they are on sale, then stack 'em in the deep freezer. About once or twice a month I will pull 4 or 5 pounds out put them into my crock ad some water, maybe some seasonings - and let them cook on low heat over-night. In the morning I have cooked boneless chicken breasts that I run under cold water to remove the fat(it all mostly cooks out) and put them into a large bowl or bucket. I then use a set of large bbq grill forks to shred them up for use in tacos, BBQ silders, etc. the cooked meat freezes well and can be thawed quickly in a microwave for just about anything you can think of. I also use it for making spaghetti sauce(which always seems to taste better if you let it cook slowly for a day or so). I prep up all my ingredients on one day, and actually mix everything into the pot the next day - then it sits for at least 8 hours on low heat with a toothpick under the lid. I check it every couple of hours(adding water if needed), once it is done to taste, I let it cool off, and then freeze it for later meals. Done this way, even fancy spaghetti recipes only take an hour to make. Once you get used to making meals with one, you will find that slow-cookers can do just about any meal, if you try.Get a BIG slow-cooker - you will not regret it(unless you can't fit it onto your counter). **Q: most recipes say cook on low or high, how do you know what temp that is?** A: On Slow Cook the manual states High is 212* and low is 200*. In my experience even on high this model doesn’t reach 200*. If a recipe calls for slow cook on high, I use the roast functions set to 250* **Q: Is this crock pot lead free?** A: I have tried to call crockpot to ask this ? . I have one that is 50 yrs old. They sent me to a 3rd party that did not even make this plug in crockpot. I was told as I understood that yes I should get a new model but again they only made the stove top crocks. I suspect if someone has an older model they should get a new one because the rules changed about lead in things a while back. I even had to get rid of some old plates I was using. I do not think I will purchase a crock pot due to the customer service and difficulty communicating with them. when I finally got to talk to a supervisor she helped, I think , and as I understand it , I was told 100% no lead BUT was told fda and Calif prop 65 meets requirements for the stoneware. **Q: What size is best for a slow cooker? The Cuisinart comes in several sizes.** A: Ron, as many of the people responding to your question have done, I purchased the 6 Qt. as well. I often downsize my recipes to a serving for 2 or 3 and a great cook book for these recipes is America's Test Kitchen, "Cooking for Two, 2012". There are slow cooker recipes that work great in the larger slow cooker and come out just fine. I purchased this specific Cuisinart because of its oblong shape - makes it easy to cook meat or chicken on skewers. And, with the larger size you are prepared for the eventual times you want to cook a roast or larger meal. Hope this was helpful. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Small Recipes or 1-2 People, Easier to Clean *by T***R on August 26, 2012* We love it.

I have other sizes and brands of slow cookers, but this one gets used the most for a few reasons. First, I cook meals for 2 people with leftovers...so you could consider that 4 people. We are pretty big eaters...for instance we can destroy a full size pot roast within 2 days. Hey, it's the Midwest - we love beef! I feel I could fit an entire (smaller) chicken in this cooker if I wanted to. Mostly I cook boneless chicken breasts, stews, chili, and the aforementioned pot roast. This cooker is that perfect in-between size where I can do as little as 3 large chicken breasts or as much as a roast and potatoes, although that fills it to the top. Second thing I like about this cooker is the programmable timer is dead easy. At first I thought it was too simplistic and would confuse me, but I have no problems with it, whereas my "Stay or Go"...I had so much trouble feeling like I had it on the right setting I would sometimes consult the manual and often leave for work convinced that I did something wrong. I came home to THAT cooker "off" one day for no reason and I never did figure out if it was user error or a power failure, but there was no way the food was safe. The Cuisinart is easy and I feel confident it will go into warm mode when the cook time is done, since that is the default setting...which is ideal for me since I am away from home 11-13 hours. Third thing I like is that it's actually easier to clean than my "Stay or Go." I have no idea HOW since they both have the black removable crock, but this one releases stuck food much much easier. I have NOT tested it, but it also seems the temps are better in this crock. My other one seemed way way too hot hot hot on the low setting and there was just no way a boneless skinless chicken breast would survive that. This Cuisinart cooker just made me the most lovely pot of moist juicy white chicken breast (which I shredded and used for tacos) the other day and I am STILL amazed. Two quibbles: I think it's expensive. I delayed buying due to that and I wish I'd had this cooker sooner! The cord is about 16" long at MOST. It's the shortest cord ever. I understand that this is probably for safety??? But in older homes like mine it often means there is only one spot on the countertop where this can go, and it's where everything else is...my other crock at least had a long enough cord that I could put the cooker on the stovetop and keep the countertop clear, but this one has to be snugged right up to the outlet, directly under the cabinets. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cuisinart MSC-800 7-Quart 4-in-1 Cook Central Multicooker, Stainless Steel/Black - Heat Resistant Mat for 6-8 Quart Slow Cooker, Kitchen Heat Resistant Silicone Trivet，Oval Thickened Silicone Non Slip Heat Resistant Mat - Cuisinart Multi-Cooker Cookbook for Beginners: 1000-Day Amazingly Easy & Delicious Cuisinart Multi-Cooker Recipes to Sauté Vegetables, Brown Meats and ...
