Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Farberware FSSC500 5-Quart Slow Cooker
Customer Review: Money Well Spent
Summary: 5 Stars
I think my wife and I were the last of our friends to get around to adding a slow cooker to our kitchen.
When I began doing some preliminary research I was disconcerted that I was unable to find any good reviews and most of what I came across was recall info for a host of slow cookers. Seemed pretty ominous.
Fortunately, I found many useful reviews here on amazon and was able to not only find a slow cooker that works as advertised but a very economical one to boot.
We only received the unit on Monday but my wife prepared a 5lb roast right off the bat with a recipe from the included owner's manual.
Following the directions to a "T" in terms of ingredients, temperature setting and time, the roast came out perfectly.
I did find one issue which Farberware customer service is taking care of for us. Upon washing the (cooled off) lid for the cooker, I noticed what appears to be a hairline crack running around the perimeter of the glass lid. It did not penetrate through the glass and may have been a manufacturing flaw I hadn't noticed when taking the item out of the box. (I had to hold it in the light a certain way to notice it.)
In any case, in an abundance of caution I called Farberware and they are sending a new lid right out. Can't ask for more than that. (Should the new lid have issues I will come back and edit this review but I am remaining confident that this is an anomaly.)
Overall, I'd have to say that this economical purchase will prove very worthwhile for a long time to come.
