Title: Problematic for people who work long hours
Review: If you work long days, this crock pot is going to pose some problems. There is no countdown timer, which means that when you leave in the morning you have to turn it on. If you work an 8 or more hour day, this means that food will be overcooked--lots of recipes are for less than 8-10 hours, and unfortunately the "warm" setting on this *continues* the cooking. You can't correct this problem with a delayed start using an appliance timer either, because when the pot goes to "on" it waits for you to select an *additional* button for temp and time (and if you're not home, you can't press the selection button to start the pot). This is a drag. I'd recommend either a slow cooker with a countdown clock, or one of the old-fashioned slow cookers with a knob and a separately purchased appliance timer instead.
