I love the Ninja 4-in-1 also. It is Multi use so in the long run you get more for your money.  It also cleans easily.


I love my Ninja too and use it several times a week.  It's especially great in the warm weather as it doesn't heat your kitchen up like your oven does.

Re: Thinking of purchasing a slow cooker

They probably all have similar features by now, but just make sure it has a WARM setting, so you can keep mashed potatoes hot while making other sides for your holiday meals. Also, oval is the best, and get one big enough to do a pork shoulder for pulled pork. The lid should have a locking device for travel in your car. I think you can get all those things with just the basic appliance at WalMart. If you want more bells and whistles, you will have to spend more money.

Cuisinart makes a nice multi-functional slow cooker.
