Sear, brown, sauté, and slow cook all in one pot for maximum flavor with the Calphalon Digital Sauté Slow Cooker. The cooking pot removes and can be placed on electric, gas, or induction cooktops to brown or sear ingredients before slow cooking. The LCD digital display provides intuitive control of multiple cooking modes, for tender pulled pork, curry chicken, paella, and more. The nonstick ceramic coating is easy to clean and delivers 11x more durability* than standard nonstick surfaces, plus it’s PTFE- and PFOA-free. The Calphalon slow cooker is perfect for one-pot family dinners with its 5.3-quart capacity. The cooking pot is also oven safe for further heating, cooking, and warming options. Gorgeous dark stainless steel will enhance any kitchen’s countertop and metal construction provides long-lasting durability.

Consumer Reports

CR’s take: With a capacity of 5.3 quarts, the Calphalon Digital programmable slow cooker earns a Very Good score in our low-setting test. It turns out beef stew with fairly tender meat and veggies in 8 hours, and about the same when cooked on the high setting for 5 hours. It weighs just 7 pounds, and the aluminum pot is round and has a ceramic nonstick coating, the only one in our ratings with that feature. There's another feature that sets this model apart: You can use the pot on any type of range to sear, sauté, or brown food before slow cooking. Program this cooker for up to 20 hours, and the auto-warm setting lasts 4 hours. The warranty is for three years.

 Two heat settings in an auto keep warm mode, there's a durable ceramic coated pot, which is suitable for oven and stove top use. This non-stick ceramic coating is easily cleaned in ptfe and pfoa.

 Free calphalon claimed this pot as 11 times more easy to clean and durable than other non-stick surfaces. Making this a great, long-lasting, slow, cooker investment. One downside of this is that, whilst the glass lid is dishwasher, safe, calphalon suggests you don't put the ceramic coated pot in the dishwasher. This may be a setback in convenience for some, but this may be made up for by the easy, clean technology used in the design of this pot

Calphalon Digital Sauté Slow Cooker Review

Hamilton Beach slow cookers take the convenience of slow-cooked dishes A giant step further. Even if you typically use your slow cooker at home, you'll be impressed by the attractive design, easy-to-use features and simple Dishwasher cleanup that a Hamilton Beach slow cooker offers you.

Wirecutter

For longer cook times or more precise temperature control, we like the Hamilton Beach Temp Tracker.

CR's take: This 6-quart Hamilton Beach is one of the least expensive of the programmable models we tested, and it beat out Crock-Pot, long synonymous with slow cookers, in our tests. The Hamilton Beach is the only model to earn an Excellent rating in our high-setting tests; it’s the fastest in its category. Program this cooker for up to 24 hours; the auto-warm option lasts for 24 hours, too. The owner’s manual includes tips on using the temperature probe and hold-temp mode to cook meat and fish using the sous vide method (placing food in a sealed bag and slowly cooking it in a warm bath of water). The warranty is for one year.

  Yes if you do the math this wasn’t that expensive per meal etc. but I like to buy something I can count on to work long term, even if it costs a little more.  Lots of people love this, and that’s great. I can tell you that after 4 years with mine, it definitely resembles what you expect from an opening price point brand (only, that’s not the price they are charging)

  I just can’t fathom a Hamilton Beach slow cooker for $70-80. I believe this was in the $45-50 range when I purchased four years ago and I thought that was steep, looks like all slow cookers have increased tremendously in price. At that rate I’d rather pay a little more and get kitchen aid, or maybe even bump up to a higher end brand from there. Slow cookers used to last 20 plus years- 4 years is ridiculous

Display broken in 4 years

 So after about 5 hours, I took the lid off and let it cook on high. This did the trick. The watery sauce began to change into the thicker sauce I wanted. After this, I returned the lid and put the pork on low for another 1 hour and again removed the lid for the final hour

The Jury is still out

 The silicone ring on the lid starts off pretty tacky and can be tricky to seat. After the first couple times using it though, that wears off and works great, creating a nice seal. The biggest annoyance for me is the beeps when turning it on or adjusting settings is a bit obnoxious and can't be disabled. Overall though, it cooks like a crock pot should (low and slow) and has held up so I recommend this one!

 It did give off some smell from the manufacturing oil and maybe the silicone for the first two batches but then stopped completely after that. The high setting test resulted in a reading of 210 at the end of 4 hours and the low test came out to 195 at the end of 8. This doesn't just blast the temperature right away and boil the whole time like some of the competing brands have started doing I guess for safety reasons. I like that this unit still comes with a heavy removable crock which makes cleanup easy

 She complained that all of her recipes no longer worked as everything was cooking way too hot/fast, even on low. I bought her one of these and she is now happy again as things are back to how they were. An 8 hour on low roast recipe can go the full time and be at that 190 mark at the end with most of the time spent in the sweet spot. Because I remember mine giving off quite a smell when it was new, I washed this new one out thoroughly and then ran three batches of just water filled a little over halfway up

Works great and not too hot!

 The inner crock is heavy, but it's the nature of the beast, as is the fact that the exterior gets hot when you are cooking. It is clumsy to wash in the sink, but the addition of cooking bags made for this size and type of cooker simplifies the cleaning enough to make it worth it. It is big, so consider where you will store it before buying. I can't stand appliances I'm not using sitting on my countertops, so that was an issue for me

 I have used several recipes that give 6-8 hour cooking times and have cut the time in half with great success. Tough cuts of meat still came out falling apart tender. I should pass on the hint that I picked up about high temps and avoiding burned food: If you put a raft of onion or celery in the bottom bag and rest the meat on it, it will give extra flavor as well as protecting meat from burning or sticking to the bag. The design of the lid could be better

 I feel using the cooking bags help with my peace of mind, as well as with cleanup. The wire clamps to secure the crock for travel seem like they would work fine, but I don't travel with food, so I have only found them a bit annoying because they don't fold completely away from the side of the crock and you cannot use them while cooking. Another model is probably the same, but without the clamps. I was just overwhelmed with all the reading I did and picked this one without considering that I might not want the clamps

Works great, but a little nervous about the "Made in China" stamp

 The face of it is already starting to come off. The crock insert is much harder to clean than the original so they definitely changed the finish on that as well.

Cheaply Made

A long time user of Hamilton Beach slow cookers, I thought the addition of a thermometer would be a nice improvement to the devices.  I was wrong.  The ability to track the inner temperature of my meats make cooking so much easier.  In the two months after receiving the Temp Tracker, I've used it three times

  The ability to track the inner temperature of my meats make cooking so much easier.  In the two months after receiving the Temp Tracker, I've used it three times.  I've made chili, a pork roast, and beef ribs, in each case everything turned out perfect, in the cases of the roast and ribs, the thermometer indicated my cooking was done far sooner than the old fill and forget method of using slow cookers.

The ceramic crock: nice and heavy.  So many slow cookers seem to be scrimping on the crocks these days.  This one is heavy duty and exceedingly easy to clean (and I highly recommend using slow cooker bags to eas on the cleanup)

An amazing improvement on the standard slow cooker

 I did not like the control panel that is a soft push button plastic material that will wear away real fast. I think the price point is a bit high for the quality of the product.

Nice looking slow but didn't like the control panel

 However, I did come across an awesome blog called a year of slow cooking that presented me with a bunch of easy-to-make recipes in very little time. (Since then I have found other blogs with other recipes: Get Crocked and 365 days of slow cooking for example but a year of slow cooking is still my favorite.) The recipe problem solved, I started cooking using my small, old, and very basic crockpot. And that crockpot was doable but some recipes call for cooking on low for 9 hours; others for 6 and really all I want is to throw the ingredients into the crockpot and forget about it

My old basic crockpot didn’t let me do that. The Hamilton Beach, on the other hand does

” In a couple of negative reviews I have seen, there were complaints about the glass breaking. The instructions say to only clamp down the lid when transporting food. My husband says that there is a good chance that tightening the lid while cooking would put extra stress on the glass making it more likely to break/shatter. So bear this in mind

) Thing is, neither my husband nor I love cooking all that much. So I guess it comes as no surprise that I am terrible at it.

I love this crockpot

 To confirm temperature, time setting. & turn off power, you must PUSH IN the same knob you use for control settings. Made a roast on low & it turned out very moist and delicious. There was no boiling like my old crockpot and the roast was fully cooked to my liking in 7 hrs

Cooks food great
