Don't bother. My crock pot brand crock pot from 2015 is a piece of shit.

I upgraded to a 6 qt Hamilton Beach with the latching lid about that same time and i'ts worked flawlessly.

The upgrade was really to have the latching lid as my old one still worked, and what a useful comfort that latchng lid is!

I was advised to avoid any electronic controls as they don't play well with the long heating then cooling cycles of a slow cooker but mine with the high/low/warm/off control has been fine.

It is! I didn't need the electronics, the programmable cooking time and all, but I wanted the latching lid, which is a real game changer anytime you want or need to take food anywhere.

That's a crock pot feature I'l never do without again. So worth it.

Just remember things made in China these days, is just shit. The paint could be toxic, the electrical could’ve been ran with the wrong gauge wire. The crap nowadays rarely goes through a thorough Quality Assurance to make sure everything was done correctly. I’m surprised that more houses aren’t burning down because of this
