Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

It would be really great if it had a timer feature. It also heats a bit inconsistently; when I cook oatmeal in it there are patches of scorched oatmeal. But other than that, it's the perfect size for one or two people, and is a great value!

Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

This machine makes enough food for two people & left overs for one. Its so compact it stays on my counter because of that I use it more often. There are two cons: It does not have a timer for automatic shut off which is feature I love in my other slow cooker. I keep it on a trivet since it gets very hot and the feet do not have a lining that can prevent my counter from scorch marks.

Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

This is a terrific little slow cooker for making steel cut oatmeal. We use it 6 days a week! We set it up before bed and in the morning we have perfect oatmeal! Consistent results everytime.For those concerned with the current cost of food, we make plenty of organic oatmeal for two people 6 days a week[$] Can't beat that!The only con is that some of the oatmeal sticks to the sides, but with a soak in some warm soapy water, it comes off easily.It's great!

Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

The oval shape is really key. It expands and compliments the number of different things you can cook in it...like roasts and whole chickens. The smaller size (1.5 qt vs. 3 or 4 qt) is ideal for empty nesters or singles. And who doesn't like to come home at night or wake in the morning to a cooked meal.

Finally the PERFECT little Slow Cooker

Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

Since my husband is away quite often on his job, this pot is perfect for one and it's large enough to fix stews or a roast for the two of us when he's home. This little pot is wonderful. Cooks everything nicely and is so easy to clean. I have my large pot stored in the pantry, this little jewel sits out on the counter. I use it almost every day for one dish or another.
I LOVE this pot!!

Bottom Line:

Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

This is the best little slow cooker ever. It is really great for 2 people. I specifically purchased this to be able to make overnight oatmeal for my husband and I. When I made it in the 3.5 slow cooker I have it got too mushy. I would definitely buy another one

Comments about Proctor Silex 1.5 Quart Slow Cooker - 33115:

Very attractive, although I have only used it once so far, and the results didn't "wow" me--but that's after only one try, so I am reserving judgement. Because I'm being ask to give an evaluation, I'd doing just that, with what I know.
