I took it back

Date of Review:  Jan 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: I wouldn't recommend this pot if you expect dinner to be done when you get home after being away all day.
Review: I received this crock pot for Christmas as I am a working mom who often rushes home during my lunch hour to prep something for dinner. Not a relaxing way to spend a lunch hour. My mother loves her crock pot so I decided that this would be a good way...

Boil Everything - What Rival Had To Say When I Called

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2007
The Bottom Line: If your unit is overcooking on low, you likely have a defective unit. Call Rival and explain the situation, they offer excellent customer service.
Review: I have had such problems with this crock pot and went on line today to see if there were any other people with problems with this unit and found this site. Today was my third attempt to cook a pot roast, which I have been doing for years using a 3...

Rival Smart Pot 6 Quart burns food!

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 2006
Review: I'm extremely disappointed with the Smart Pot. The reason for purchase was simply for the automatic "shift to warm" feature when the cooking time was complete. I have two complaints. 1st complaint is that it heats up way to fast. For example, cooked...

Extra Points for Details!

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2002
The Bottom Line: Buy it for ample size, great design, and state-of-the-art controls (for CrockPots!)
Review: All CrockPots may not be created exactly equal, but the basic cooking idea is the same, so the choice is about the details. The Rival 3860BC Chrome 6 quart model has several very appealing ones. Not to be sneezed at is the color and design: snappy...

We're returning it to the store

Date of Review:  Jul 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Heats up too hot, too fast when on "low" setting. It could be a fire hazard. Smoke rolled off our Smart Pot unit when we tried to use it.
Review: What a disappointment! After my three-year-old Rival crock pot (Model 33551) had an electrical meltdown less than two weeks ago (please refer to my eopinion on that model), my husband and I went shopping for a new crock pot yesterday. We decided to...

Not a 'slow' cooker

Date of Review:  Jul 31, 2004
Review: The crock pot is a very appealing looking appliance. Very chic!
However, I was extremely disappointed in the performance. A slow cooker needs very little, if any, water. This product cooked everything so fast that needed to have lots of liquid...

Shoulda checked the reviews first...

Date of Review:  Jan 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: I cannot recommend this product. A slow cooker that burns food is not only useless, but dangerous. Look for something else!
Review: I usually research before I buy, however; I am a Costco junkie; I needed a new slow cooker; I happened to be shopping and there it was! I purchased this about 8 months ago.

I used this cooker on an average of twice a month. The first thing...

No way - call it FAST COOKER

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2004
Review: This is the worst slow cooker I have owned. I really bought it for my mother -- I told her all the benefits of a slow cooker and I could not believe she had never used one. Mom tried this one 4 times and kept telling me it way over cooked everything...

Where Has This Been All My Life?

Date of Review:  Nov 25, 2001
The Bottom Line: A great addition to any kitchen!
Review: It started with the cheerleading practice.

As the mother of two very active girls, I'm always on the go - picking one child up from a playdate, while driving another to Scouts or Writing Club. Until a few weeks ago, I was able to juggle...

REJECTED! - Too hot.

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2005
Review: Our family grew by two at once which eventually made our old crock pot too small. We used it regularly for years. The Smart Pot was a huge disappointment as the exterior gets VERY HOT. Leaving something on the counter as hot as this thing gets for...
