Finally, a slow cooker that lets you program timing and heat setting to fit your schedule and your cooking style. With the FlexCook Slow Cooker from Hamilton Beach®, you can program two different heat settings and time durations in one cooking cycle, giving you greater flexibiltiy in cooking your favorite recipes. For example, you can cook on high three hours, then low for six hours, or cook on low for four hours, then high for two.

Perfer to keep it simple? The FlexCook also offers a program mode for one heat setting and cooking time. The slow cooker automatically switches to warm when cooking time ends. There’s also a manual mode, where you can select high, low or warm with no timer. And with Stay or Go clips that lock onto the slow cooker and seal the lid, you can enjoy worry-free travel. Both the lid and crock remove easily and go into the dishwasher for cleanup.

We now have a 5qt and 6qt version of this slow cooker. Both work great and have very flexible cooking features. The only thing that kept me from giving them 5 stars is the fact that in both cases, the lids seem to be slightly undersized. They work, but you have to be careful in centering them properly, or else you will have heat escape. Not a serious problem as long as you are careful.

I've just used it for the first time today. I used the flex cook method and it worked exactly as I had hoped. Only thing to be aware of is that the lid does not fit securely. It did not seem to affect the recipe though. The clasps for fastening the lid are to be used only for travel not during cooking.

I've never had a programmable crock pot...this one is the best. Easy to program...just set it and walk away. I love that it goes into a warm setting and then shuts off.

After searching online for crock pots, this is the only one I found that will allow you to program two different cooking settings, allowing it to cook on high and low settings automatically. I've used it twice now, and it cooks great. Very easy to program. I didn't even need to read the instructions. The locking mechanism is very secure and easy to use as well. I found mine for only $39, which seems like a great price too!

It's a reliable slow cooker. I love using a crock pot in the winter for my one pot meals. The only reason I replaced my other one is because after 7 years, it just stopped working. I hope to have this one for at least 10years!

My mother needed a new crock pot so I did some research and ended up with this product! We are both 'kitchen gadget crazy'. I like that you can set it up to start on one temp and change itself while cooking. Looks nice and seems sturdy.

This was a gift to our daughter. She loves it! She said it works great, loves the dual timer/temp settings and really loves the locking lid. Thought about purchasing one for me to but that would give me 3 crockpots, which would be more than what I need. Would recommend to anyone especially those who work and would like the nucleus of their meal cooked when they arrive home.

This slow cooker had all the wanted features I desired in a gift for family . Finding time to cook AFTER getting home from work is difficult , but this will ease that strain and dampen the urge to eat foolish choices !

I bought this as a replacement for my Crock Pot that had a crack in it. I've only used this once, but it worked great. I used the Flex Cook feature, cooked my my roast on high for 2.5 hours, then low for 2.5 hours. Plus, I liked that it shows how long it had been on warm.

I USED MY MOMS & LOVED HOW IT SHUT OFF AFTER THE SET TIME BUT KEPT IT AT A WARM TEMP. I USE MY CROCKPOTS FOR PARTIES & IN PLACE OF THE OVEN. IT IS THE JUST THE TWO OF US SO I DON'T USE THE OVEN A WHOLE LOT. IT IS HEALTHIER THIS WAY TOO. TRY IT, YOU WILL LIKE IT TOO. THANKS
