Title: Disappointed - overcooks/burns food
Product review: I was excited about this product because I wanted to be able to keep food warm after the actual cooking time was complete (I am gone at work all day, so I thought this would be a nice feature). However, I have had the same problem as many others have noted here - it heats up WAY too hot, and ends up burning food or overcooking it, at a minimum. The cheap, lightweight lid rattles constantly during cooking (once it gets totally heated up). I am very disappointed, to say the least. I still have my old Rival slow cooker (got it 20 years ago when we got married), and I think I will go back to using it - it doesn't overcook the food, and has a nice, heavy glass lid that doesn't rattle, let out steam or splash hot water during cooking. I wish Rival would have carried forward the quality of their old models when creating these new models with all the bells and whistles.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
