Title: NOT so Smart Pot
Review: After using this only a dozen times or so, the handle became so brittle from the excessive heat of the cooker that it disintegrated. The company says the lid and cooking pot are dishwasher safe, but I think that's a "crock" also. I contacted Rival and was told that the item was out of warranty (they go by time, not by how many uses). I figured that the handle could be replaced since it is attached only by a bolt through the lid. But no. Rival does not do that. You have to buy a new lid... and the cost of a replacement lid is $10 plus shipping.... that's about half of what this model now sells for. So beware of this bargain product, because you won't even get what you pay for.
