Pretty crockpot

I'd call it a tie dye crockpot or ombre color.

Long time ago David V had on the air a square shaped dutch oven some people call it . I'd call it a big soup pot. Hard to find square shaped stuff be good for soup.

all square shaped skillets had the grill marks in them. rather have plain square skillet.

On the home page at the upper left where U see the Q in the square they have a banner saying 'now you're cooking". I went thru 18 pages of that and found all kinds of neat stuff that never gets aired.

Like a little deep fryer, pretty melamine plates. Lots of Martha Stewart stuff. I didn't know they carried all that stuff.

When I was about 7 years we got melamine plates. I hated the way a knife sounded when you cut something on them.

I hate eating in a restaurant that has tile or brick floors and people scooting chairs all over the place.

Ye gads !

That's a pretty pot but I'd definitely call it a dutch oven.

I think Melamine was banned or discontinued or something-it was supposedly toxic.

@SharkE As I was going through those kitchen items you mentioned, I saw two or three items with reviews that were offered by people who received the item in a promotion. I've never seen that on QVC before. I don't trust those reviews.

That's a very pretty crockpot. It's not the $500 one, but I'm sure you could make a fantastic pot of stew in it.

yeah, this one isn't no Le Crueset one just brand name Crock Pot.

If I didn't already have 2 I'd get this one. I still got a Rachael Ray one from yrs ago and a red one.

all the pretty colors come out after you bought a doggy one.

@Another new name Sue I went back and ordered K60234 the little deep fryer

they have one a little bigger, too. This one you can put in dishwasher

and is good for one person for french fries, wings and fish.

I have a Cobalt Blue ombre stock pot that I got from Amazon. The brand name escapes me but it's a cast iron stock pot with a ceramic coating. It looks very similar to Le Creuset.

While pretty that is not what I would call a crockpot. Looks like a old fashioned dutch oven or as my mom used to call it a roasting pan.

shoesnbags — Thu, 15 Sep 2022 02:27:19 GMT

Folks, it's made by Crockpot! I didn't realize that either, but then @SharkE said something to that effect in a reply here. Also, if you look carefully, you can see the word "CROCKPOT" embossed on the top.

@SharkE, I agree that it's really pretty.

Ohhh...It's Crockpot brand!

I have a cast iron/enamel dutch oven called Chantal which I've used for 25 years. It was a gift from a girlfriend, and I doubt she paid more than $39 for it. I don't think I've made a bad pot of stew or soup in it. "Twould be nice to have the high end one, Calphalon I guess it is, but I cannot imagine it would cook any better than mine. Might be prettier though.

It is pretty, but it is a Dutch Oven no matter who makes it.

Not a crockpot. But it's pretty.

JeanLouiseFinch — Tue, 20 Sep 2022 03:43:10 GMT

Looks like a Dutch Oven to me too. There was a time I would have loved a complete set of LeCreuset, but now I'm glad I don't have it. It's way too heavy for me to deal with now.

@Judaline I think you're mistaken. QVC has 103 Melamine items listed for sale.
