This smartly designed mini crock pot checks all the boxes. I trusted the Crock Pot brand and it did not disappoint. From the antiturn pin to the storage for the removable cord, this company thought of everything. And it's tiny but mighty. I put in precooked cold soup and 1 serving didn't fill 1/2 the 20 ounce bowl. I plugged it up upon arrival and at lunch time it was steaming hot. I've been looking for something to warm leftovers for lunch and that's exactly what this did. It slowly warms over hours. I only tried a 4 hour interval so I'm not sure if it will do 2-3 but the advantage to this slow warm is the food texture, moisture and quality didn't change at all. If you're used to a crock pot then you know this. For the people that had trouble with the lid, always lift the steam release valve and if the bowl is engaged with the anti turn pin, there was no problem opening lid. You eat right out of the bowl while it's in the unit so you won't burn yourself. There's no other safe way and the instructions are clear on that. Lastly, this thing turns heads. It's tiny, cute and practical. You don't find that combo often. Several people at work literally ordered their own, on the spot, when they saw and heard me brag about mine. The only question I have is, what material was used for the inner bowl. I prefer stainless steel over aluminum but I'm suspicious that this is the latter. To limit exposure, I don't pack my lunch at night but in the morning. That would add another layer of convenience. The good news is, it cleans up easily and so far, no food stains (There are already water stains but the booklet tells the remedy for that. ) Bottom line, read and follow the manual and this mini crock pot will warm your lunch slowly and right on time.

I'm an aircraft mechanic and I don't always get hot lunch meals at work. This ended that! Quality construction, awesome color, works awesome! Very durable, doesn't leak soups, easy to transport. Rakes about an hour and a half to heat once I pull the bowl out of my cooler and plug in the crackpot, making it the perfect hot lunch remedy

So this personal size crockpot is amazing. Cute, perfect serving size for one, and my favorite part - it heats to a perfect temp for me. Like not lukewarm and not so hot to burn your mouth. I just plug it in and that’s it. I leave it for 15min or so and it’s perfect every time. I love the removable part that makes it a breeze to clean. Has not leaked. So super easy to grab and go. I have used for Chinese food, chicken & rice, and of course soup. Great every time.

Bought this for my wife so she can have a nice warm lunch at work. She plugs this in as soon as she gets to work and it warms up her meal within an hour. She is very happy with this unit and uses it 2-4 times a week. The interior basket and lid seals the food in securely so it arrives safe and dry. The cord stores under the unit and is easy to wrap and unwrap. You will truly enjoy the ease and functionality of this for years to come.

I wish I could give 5 stars but there is a design flaw. Once something inside is hot, it’s very difficult to open even with the vent open. It’s hot so you need protection and it takes a lot of effort. There is one tiny metal pin holding it so I imagine that breaking after opening enough times. That said it works great. I plug in 40-60 mins before lunch depending on what’s inside and lunch is hot and ready. No more waiting for the one microwave in the lunch room. It’s easy to clean and take with you. It’s a nice color. The cord storage is smart too. I like it and hope it lasts.

I’m a commercial electrician , and after years of eating cold leftovers in my car I finally stumbled upon this beauty. I almost never have access to heat up food and this changed the game. Plug it in an hour before lunch and you’re ready to go . I love the stainless food container , rather than plastic. It’s nice in the winter to have a warm meal to sit down with . I bought the wifey one for Christmas, so she can enjoy it too . Comes in a couple nice looking colors , small and transportable

Love this little mini. It warms up fast and easy to use. One of the best purchases I made so far for my lunches. Yea!! You will jot be disappointed. It's durable and the handle is perfect to carry and does not leak.

My husband & I own a business, which means long days with little chance to go out and get food- especially during the holidays- we were doing an “old school” thermos, which is hard to eat out of due to the small neck area and small capacity. NOW, we can enjoy our favorite leftovers, or create little meals that are perfectly warmed and delicious! Easy clean up, holds a good amount and no struggling to get the food out of a tiny thermos opening!! Highly recommend!

Solucionó mi vida en la oficina, ya no tengo que hacer fila en el microondas y la comida permanece caliente mucho más tiempo que en el microondas. Valió totalmente la pena.

This is very handy to have in your office or home. It heats up beautifully and doesnt take long at all. Highly recommend it. Great for students in university dorms too!!!

About 6 months into use, the inner lid on this started to break. This is just from use. It was not dropped, and I always gently handwashed the lid. Beyond the fact that something at this price shouldn't fail after 6 months, to make matters worse, Crock-Pot would not send a replacement part because I'm in Canada. If an item is sold on amazon.ca, then full warranty service should be included. Their only offer was to have me ship it back for a refund that would not include tax. I don't think this is acceptable. It's a shame because the product, when working, is great at what it does. But that's meaningless if it only lasts 6 months.

Esta lunch box es lo mejor que me pudo haber pasado, no tengo horno de microondas en la oficina, y decidí comprarla a ver que tal, está súper práctica, muy buena compra

This is perfect to take to work and heat up my lunch. It’s small and pretty, and he eats food perfectly.
