Ratings & Reviews for KitchenAid 4-Quart Stainless Steel Round Slow Cooker

Great temperature control

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found other slow cookers to overcook or undercook. This mutli-cooker has great temperature controls. In the week since I purchased this cooker, I have roasted a chicken, slow cooked short-ribs, made yogurt and bourbon chicken.

If only it were a pressure cooker as well!

if this tool had a pressure cooker feature included, it would be the ultimate multi-cooker.... too bad

Very practical, not too bulky

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the different features, especially being able to saute before slow cooking.

Multi cooker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Kitchenaid products. Just recently added to kitchen appliances. Very good peice, use as 2 slow cooker

Time saver. Great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had it for 3 years. Use all the time. Just drop a beef or chicken or lamb into a pot add some spices, forget for afew hours and than get a great meal. Effortless worry free cooking. Great product.

Excited!

I bought my 4-Quart multi-cooker with the stirring tower on QVC. I have used it to cook beans, a beef roast with carrots and potatoes and chili. Well, I love it!, I’m a widow, living alone, it’s a perfect size for me. Lastly, I have gotten so many compliments and even a few “Can I borrow your cooker”

Happy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great cooking addition. Beautiful craftsmanship. Works well

Awesome Features and Design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was brought for me as a Christmas gift and i could not be more please with it. The easy of use and the great functions make this a daily use in our home.

Great options

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the many options/features that this cooker offers. If you are able to afford it, buy the stir tower to go with it. Worth the money

great For a busy family

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the cook time/timer feature. I put in steal cut oats before bed, set the timer, and enjoy a warm perfectly cooked healthy breakfast. I also appreciate many cooking options available with a single pot dinner.

Waste of money, deceptive timer

For all the things this cooker can do, it lacks the capability to simply turn off the cooker when the timer reaches zero. Unbelievable! This alone makes the cooker totally useless for me and I had to send it back. I do like the wide range of other options, but this missing option is a deal breaker. I wish it was communicated more clearly before buying such an expense cooker, like in a red bold blinking font on the website.

Does what it says

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only used this for 2 things so far - making a pot roast and a breakfast casserole. Was great to sear the roast and cook as a slow cooker all in one. The only reason I did not give 5 stars, the rack is too small for a decent sized roast so I didn't use it and the settings could be better. If you want to change setting - say to lower temperature, once it reaches that setting, you have to enter start again.

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this one year ago and I’m so happy. It’s Practical and easy to use

Great looking and great results!

I bought this recently and have been using it weekly to make meals prior to Shabbat (Jewish holy day every Friday evening through Saturday evening). The multi-cooker cooks stews, soups and other meals to perfection and keeps them warm for us to eat for our Shabbat meals. Love that. During the rest of the week, we're able to use it to make nutritious dinners that are as tasty as they are economical. It's the best appliance purchase we've made since the Kitchen-Aid Stand Mixer!

Great machine

I bought a month ago and just used it recently it truly is a great invention slow cooker and high temperature cooker all in one

Looking good

I love kitchen stuff but I was promised recipes if I registered. I'm still waiting. Looks like a great machine but I want more than just a slow cooker, so please send me something good to try.

Solved all my slow cooker problems

I have been stymied for years with inconsistant roasts in my slow cookers. All too often the meat was overcooked with no flavor due to the low setting still being too high and essentiall boiling the meat. This slow cooker has solved that problem. I can set it at 200 degrees and 4-6 hours later have a fabulous succulent pot roast. I do not use the sear feature. I have no interest in that as I always sear my meat in a cast iron skillet. My best recipe is beef bourginon.

Simmer function not adjustable for high altitude

I bought this last year. Works well enough but problem is I live at high altitude 5000ft. The preset simmer function is a rolling boil at 210F. Wish I could adjust down 5 deg or so but customer service says sorry not able to do it. Need to avoid using any preprogrammed modes using simmer.

Sleek and functional

I love to cook and when a highly functional tool can make it that much easier count me in
