The crock-pot 7-quart slow cooker has 3 heat settings: high, low and warm. The high setting lets you cook food quickly. The low setting is perfect for food that needs to cook all day and for less tender cuts of meats. You can keep cooked food warm for hours with the help of the warm setting. This small kitchen appliance has round stoneware that easily detaches from the base for carrying the cooker to the table or storing it in the fridge. Its glass lid allows you to monitor your food. Both the stoneware and lid can be safely washed in the dishwasher. This crock-pot slow cooker has a brushed stainless steel finish.
