West Bend 84966 Versatility Oval-Shaped 6-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is my fourth one of this style of a West Bend slow cooker in 20 or so years. I started with a four quart model. I wore it out after about 6 years of using it at least 4 or 5 times a week all year (I was a working mother then). I bought a second four quart, and passed it on three years ago to my son when he got married. I still have the six quart I purchased as a replacement (I have hidden it from my son so I can have a spare if I need it). I love this new electronic model best of all. I love being able to set the timer and know it will switch to warm when done. The older models did not do that. The digital age has arrived for my FAVORITE slow cooker of all time!! I have given away the oval standard slow cooker I had (not a West Bend). There aren't many dishes I haven't tried in this slow cooker. This is the best West Bend model yet. This model is pricey for a slow cooker, but I would purchase another one, if I found a good sale price.

Enjoy healthy, home-cooked meals even with a busy schedule thanks to this oval-shaped programmable slow cooker. Simply add ingredients to the unit's cooking pot, insert the pot into the electric base, and select the desired temperature setting--warm, low, or high. At the end of the programmed cooking time, the appliance automatically shifts to keep-warm mode, which means dinner can be ready and waiting after a long day at work or a busy day of weekend errands. The unit's 6-quart capacity nicely accommodates family-size meals or buffet-style gatherings, and its removable cooking pot can be used on the stove top or in the oven for added versatility. Even more, its base doubles as a warming base and a griddle--choose the "griddle" option from the control panel for making pancakes, eggs, hash browns, and other breakfast favorites. Additional highlights include automatic shut-off after 24 hours for safety and peace of mind, cool-touch handles, and a dishwasher-safe cooking pot and glass lid for easy cleanup. A recipe book comes included. Perfect for soups, casseroles, pot roasts, curries, and more, the slow cooker measures approximately 10 by 14-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches.
