The lid rest lets you stir and serve without having anything in the way. Hamilton Beach 33162H is Large, full-grip handles make carrying easier, whether you???re moving it from one counter to the next or taking it to a potluck party. Dishwasher-safe, removable stoneware insert and lid. Recipes included.
Hamilton Beach 33162H is a great slow cooker. Attractive stainless steel. Cooks evenly from the sides and the bottom. Perfect low setting (slow 6-7 hour cooking at about 170 degrees). High setting creates a minor simmer at the edges (about 2-3 hours at 190-200 degrees). Keep warm setting does just that. Nice seal on the lid -- it even clamps down for travel. (Don't use the clamps when cooking.) I wish Hamilton Beach 33162H had an auto-shift, but nothing's perfect. Fantastic value. Beware the terrible recipes in the instruction booklet! (Baked beans recipe is to buy a can of pre-made baked beans and cook for hours -- why??) But who cares, at this price, you can have a few bucks left for a slow cooker cook book. Hamilton Beach 33162H is a great product at a great price.
