Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Crock-Pot 3735-WN 3-1/2-Quart Slow CookerCustomer Review: Lid is Not Manufactured Properly Summary: 2 Stars
Didn't even plug the unit in. The lid is obviously not machined properly -- it's not wide enough -- resulting in a gap which will allow heat and steam to escape. I suspect this lid is used on several different models and "pretty much" fits them all.
(The stoneware has four little grooves cut into its lip, which are designed to let out excessive steam. If the lid were about 1/4 inch wider, it would cover the pot nicely with the four little holes available for steam release.)
The lid also seems a bit light in weight and doesn't sit perfectly flat on the lip of the pot. I can readily understand other reviewers' complaints about overflow and splatter. Sorry, I'm not willing to take a chance on this and will be returning it.
Customer Review: Lid leaks, again! Summary: 2 Stars
This is the second Rival crock pot I've gotten and both had the same problem - there is a 1/8 inch gap between the lid and the ceramic base. This lets out a lot of steam during the slow-cook period, so the food can dry out and it is less efficient of our energy. It seems it wouldn't be much more effort for them to make a lid that actually fit the base without that gap!
Customer Review: Love it! Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this crockpot for about 3 years. It is a good size for a small family, works well. I love that the crock is removable, enabling me to place the dish directly in the fridge (and it makes clean-up easy too!)

Customer Review: Perfect Size Summary: 5 Stars
After many years of using extra large crockpots and slow cookers, I find this crock pot size to be perfect for our downsized family. Has a crisp clean appearance and holds true to the quality that Rival has brought to us throughout the years.
