Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Crock-Pot SCVP600-SS 6-Quart Smart-Pot Programmable Slow Cooker, Stainless Steel
Customer Review: Crockpot Rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't understand the reviews of this crockpot that say it is too hot and the food gets done too fast. I don't agree, that is what crockpots are supposed to do. I love this crockpot and the size is great for my large family. Because I ordered the stainless steel model it does get a little hot to touch, however, it is wonderful to clean. I have used it several times and the food was done perfectly and was very tender. I'm so glad I purchased this model.Customer Review: DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY

My husband gave this to me as christmas present. I like the size and I thought I would like the different settings. HA! Just like all the other reviewers mine cooks way to fast. When I do use it I set it on the 10 hour setting everything is done in 4 hours or less. Not exactly helpful for people who work. I would have given it zero stars if I could.Customer Review: Dangerous, unsafe to use

The Rival SCVP600-SS is DANGEROUS to use due to poor construction quality. The plastic handle to the lid came off completely from the lid when I was lifting the lid off the pot. Fortunately, it only dropped a few inches, and did not fall into the extremely hot broth and splatter the boiling hot contents on me. Also, one handle on the side cracked off from the metal support. In both cases, the plastic handles literally melted away from the metal fittings (washer on the lid and and wired struts on the side). Please be careful if you use this product.Customer Review: Ditto....heats way too fast for a slow cooker

Have had this for about a year.....and use it 2-3 times a month......I don't know why it took so long, but just the other day I realized that this slow-cooker was heating up way too fast and maintaining too high of a temperature.........on the 10 hour setting, my chili was boiling after only 4 and a half hours.......I found myself stirring it (this being a no-no for a slow-cooker) thinking it was going to stick and burn........I could never trust this to be left on during my absence.........I am looking to replace this now.....initial research shows the Hamilton-Beach or All Clad as possible replacements......
To leave on a positive note.....the quality seems to be fairly good....i.e. no problem with the controls......no ceramic chipping or cracking........lid doesn't seal that well, but is constructed fairly decent.....
Customer Review: Do Not Buy!

I wish I had read some of the reviews on this site before I purchased this crockpot last year. I thought it was my imagination that everything was "boiling" too soon. I decided to send a complaint to the company and was told to test it by filling it over half full and checking the temp. I used cold tap water because I didn't want to ruin another meal. I put only 3-1/2 quarts in this 6-quart cooker because any more would have brought it to the edge. After 4 1/2 hours on low the water was boiling. I emailed the results and was told this was normal. As far as I'm concerned, this is not "slow-cooking"! I will never buy another Crock-Pot.
