Crock-Pot Manual 7-Quart Slow Cooker, Stainless Steel (SCV700-S-BR) review

The Crock-Pot Manual 7-Quart (model SCV700-S-BR) is the plain version of the appliance that gave slow cookers their common name. It cooks on HIGH or LOW and has a WARM setting to hold food, with no timer or digital display. The 7 quart oval stoneware is removable and serves 8 or more people, and both stoneware and glass lid are dishwasher safe. The housing is stainless steel with black accents and plastic handles, and it weighs 13.85 lb. Crock-Pot covers it with a 1 Year Limited Warranty. Because there is no timer, you need to switch it to warm yourself, which the Hamilton Beach 33765 does automatically. Crock-Pot's site shows no price for this model and sends buyers to retailers, so we could not verify one and scored value conservatively. We compared documented features and published prices and did not run cooking tests.
