I work in a shop that tends to be colder inside than outside which makes winters real fun. We have 2 microwaves for 5 people so heating up lunch kills half your break. This lunch crock eliminated that wait. I use it to heat up oatmeal, soup, chili's just about everything you do in a full size one. I plug it in about 45 minutes before breaks that's more than enough time for the food to get piping hot. The guys at work gave me crap about my portable "easy bake lunch oven" at first now they all have em. People in the office have even started to buy them. What i bought hoping for convenience turned out to be a pretty hot & popular product. There are a couple things I would change or add to the unit to make it a better portable unit. First is the cord, You manually have to wind it around the base. This tends to be a pain as you risk spilling hot food on yourself or just dumping it period. It would be a serious improvement if it had a self retracting/locking cord. The second issue would just be an over all improvement. The lid should be redone not that it's malfunctioning but for storage. There's a lot of open space under it when its on. They could just redo the handle in the middle and make it hollow with a snap lid. Inside the handle is a reusable fork & spoon. This way everything you need is in one container and ready to go. Can't count how many times I almost or did forget utensils. (I have e-mailed Crock-Pot those ideas and got the standard form reply thanking me for using their products)Read full review

My husband takes this to work everyday. I bought extra inserts so it's easy to pack leftovers in the inserts and store in the fridge till morning. My husband raves about it. Says the leftovers are so much better this way versus microwaved. If you don't have leftovers you can put a can of soup or whatever in it. Heats evenly and thoroughly.

While this was bought as a gift, I have one and love it! I take it to work, plug it in and hours later enjoy delicious, hot soup or chili. Absolutely love it! I know my giftee will too!
