Customer Reviews of Rival 5025WG 2-1/2-Quart Crockpot
Customer Rating: Summary: Rival 2 1/2 Crockpot Comment: Believe it or not, I have never owned a crockpot, and I am 60 years old. I decided to purchase one and enjoy making some comfort foods for myself. I love this little inexpensive crockpot, in fact my sister says that I am going to wear it out. Even though I no longer work, I love putting everything in it, and enjoying the aroma as it cooks, and then later in the day have a wonderful meal, such as my beef barley stew, chicken soup, pineapple pork chops over rice, and now I am going to make some rice pudding and bread pudding. For the money, you could not get a better little crockpot, and I highly recommend it. Enjoy! Customer Rating: Summary: Awesome little crock! Comment: I own four Rival sow cookers and this one gets used most. It can hold a lot more than it appears. I use it to cook small roasts, warm hot dogs for teh kids, make side dishes, for pasta dishes, to bake potatoes and yams, for rice pudding and so much more! My larger Rival crocks have had problems such as the handles breaking off from the lid or the heating element stop working, but this one keeps on going. We are a family of 6 and find so many uses for this little crock. It is a great investment and a great price! Customer Rating: Summary: Love this Comment: We bought this crockpot because of the great reviews and it has been great. We've used it to make stew (beans, barley, meat, and veggies). We cooked it on low for 17 hours and it was great. If you're going to cook your food for a long time, make sure to put enough water and keep it on low. If you fill it to the top, it's a full meal for about 4 people. Customer Rating: Summary: Oatmeal does burn Comment: Yes, the overnight oatmeal does get crispy/dry/burnt around the edges. The second time I cooked overnight oatmeal, I reduced the cooking time from 7 to 3 hours and it helped. Less burning. Next time I will keep it at 3 hours and add more water. Overall, it's a decent product. Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect size Comment: This size is just right for one, two, or three people. Rival is a good, steadfast brand, and I have used it for years. More Reviews MANUFACTURER WARRANTY:andnbsp;andnbsp;1 YEAR Choosing Appliance -> Taps If you want a sink with large bowl dimensions to cope with big-pan washing-up, it is worth considering a tap with a pull-out or pull-down spray rinse. This gives you water anywhere you need it around the bowl area. Choosing Appliance -> Spatulas Buy a sturdy stainless spatula for general uses and a Teflon spatula for your non-stick pan. In addition, buy a silicon baking spatula for scraping bowls. Silicon is an amazing substance which is heat resistant up to 550 degrees. Rival 5025WG 2-1/2-Quart Crockpot Kitchen tips -> Sharpening Knife A dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one, because you apply to it more pressure and force to cut through foods. It can easily slip out of place as you use it and you can harm yourself. Keep your knives in good working condition by sharpening according to their use and time. There's no specified amount of time, because knives vary as much as their use; although, you can easily determine if they need sharpening by the way they cut/slice foods. If a knife can slice through a tomato and tear the skin, then it needs sharpening. If, on the other hand, the cut is clean and quick without any tears, then it needs not be sharpened. |
