Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Crock-Pot 3040-BC 4-Quart Round-Shaped Manual Slow Cooker, Stainless Steel
Customer Review: I would give this product "0" stars if I was allowed to
Summary: 1 Stars
In my opinion, this item is dangerous, the aluminum pot gets extremely hot and I have the blisters to prove it. Yesterday, the handle on one side of the aluminum pot cracked and fell off in pieces. I then noticed the other handle had several cracks in it also. It is my opinion that the handles were damaged by the excessive heat generated by the aluminum outer pot. What really makes me unhappy is that this didn't occur within the 30 day time frame for returns per your policy, and now I am stuck with a product that is not only useless but dangerous.Customer Review: Stay Away!

This product was horrible! I had the same problem with my handles, luckily I never picked it up while full because I could see the cracks. It stayed super hot because it is made of metal. To add insult to injury, the metal casing was sitting on my kitchen table getting ready to be put back in it's home and my son accidentally knocked it on to the floor. It was so cheap the heating element literally fell out of the bottom. I will NOT buy this one again, you can bet your life on it. Even though it looks good, safety and QUALITY come first.Customer Review: NO STAR RATING

Since April, 2002, I have had to replace this item twice. All three of the crock pots have the same dangerous defect. The handles on the pot crack and ultimately break and fall off. Fortunately, I was not carrying a pot full of hot food when the handles actually broke off. However, this is a definite possibility. Also, the pot gets too hot, I had a blister on my hand from accidently touching it. This is a dangerous product and I have reported it to Consumer Product Safety Commission for investigation.Customer Review: Do NOT buy this Crock Pot!
Summary: 1 Stars
I read the other reviews about how the handles and the temperature switch had a tendency to crack and break, but I thought that Rival would have fixed it by the time I bought one. No such luck! I used it 7 times and and by the 3rd time the left handle had broken and then with each use more of the plastic parts started to crack and break. Horrible contruction. I was very dissapointed and I ended up throwing it out. Don't waste your money.Customer Review: No stars for this Crockpot

This is the second 4qt Rival Crockpot I have had break. The handles cannot withstand the heat and if moved they splinter and break posing a definite safety issue. After the 1st one broke I had the company send another one and after just 4 uses it also broke. This product needs serious investigation. I also own another larger crockpot from this company and have had no problems with it after 6 years of use.
