The lower temp does not burn your food. I cooked for two days in it and was very satisfied with the temp on high or low. Good purchase.

I was going to buy a unit that switched to warm after cooking from Wal-Mart but came home and found it had horrible reviews, so I looked to see which units had good reviews and found this one - not only does it go to warm after cooking, it has a probe!
I've cooked about 6 meals in it so far, including a corned beef from frozen, put it in with water and 12 hours later on low it was one of the best corned beefs I've had in a while! Tried a Pacific Pork Roast recipe from [...] in order to test out the probe (I'm very cautious with pork and loved the fact it had a thermometer for it). It hit the temperature and then went to warm which was good since my kids didn't eat till 9 at night. Any other crockpot and this would have been way overcooked and dry.
I highly recommend it. I was a little concerned about the fact that there is a hole in the lid where the probe goes in and what that would do when the probe isn't being used, but so far it is just fine, I haven't noticed any impact on the liquid in the unit. I just really love this unit. I'm going to get one for my daughter for her birthday, and one another friend for Christmas.
 6 Quart...don't believe it! December 28, 2007

Although I did not purchase this item through Amazon.com, I did use the reviews to consider this purchase. I was sure that this was the one for me!
I have an old Rival that has served me well for 15 years. As my family has grown, I am now in the market for a larger size slow cooker...preferable with newer convenience features. My old round slow cooker measures 4.5 quarts liquid, filled to the rim. Figured 6-quart would do the trick.
Purchased my new "HB 33966 6-Quart Slow Cooker" with chrome exterior (it looked sharp!), got it home & out of the box, and realized its crock really didn't appear much bigger than my old crock. Thought surely I was deceived because of the oval shape...NOPE!! I got out my measuring glass and started filling with water to test...5-quarts, flush to the inside rim!!!
I quickly boxed it up and called Hamilton Beach customer service. Say it ain't so! I got a really nice customer service rep...who, not wanting to call me a liar, went and found a quart jar as we were on the phone, and started the measuring test herself. Well, same thing! She didn't know what to say, so she went and got a supervisor, who said the measure is to the "outer rim". Give me a break!! I'm talking the outer rim that is around the lid. And, measuring from inside to outside rim, does not account for that 6th cup!! Try it and see!
First of all, you can't fill it to the out rim because that's where the lid seats. Secondly, you wouldn't even fill it flush to the inside rim (the 5-quart mark) in cooking unless you wanted a real mess on your hand.
I have nothing else to report, except for this deceptive advertising claim, as I quickly returned this product and ordered another highly rated 7-quart slow cooker. You can bet that I will have my measuring cup ready for this one, too!
You decide!
Quit after 2 uses, new one wouldn't power up November 30, 2007

Thank gawd Target has a 90-day return policy! I purchased this on sale and used it twice with great results. Yesterday I came home to a pot roast that quit cooking several hours ago... all my groceries spoiled. Today I went to Target and returned the defective unit and picked up a new one. Plugged it in and filled it with goods for split pea soup. Hit the power button... and... nothing! I'm done with this brand. Looks great, works great the two times it did its job, but the electronics are obviously NOT very durable or sophisticated. I treated this pretty unit carefully, so nothing was ever spilled on it, it never needed wiping, and was never bumped or dropped. Hope you have better luck or learn from my experience.
Temperature probe is great help May 27, 2008

My wife and I have had this product for six months and love it. It is hot in Texas, so we have roasted a whole chicken, cooked chili, and made a pot roast in this product. The temperature probe changes the heat setting to warm when the food reaches the desired temperature.
When you are ready to eat, the food is hot and the kitchen stays cool. There is no need to transfer food to another dish to serve. The removable black crock is easy to clean.
