BLACK+DECKER 7-Quart Chalkboard Slow Cooker

Best slow cooker ever. With the ability to lock the top , it makes road trips clean and easy. Also being able to write on the outside makes it great for potlucks.

This has become my new favorite crockpot. This is so easy to use and is very durable. I love the size. Not too heavy for the size either. I love the chalk outside. That makes it easy to write what’s in it for a potluck.

I bought this slow cooker and used it about once a week for 21 months, and then it stopped working. *update* I emailed the company and they sent me a new one.

I love this crockpot because it is so easy to set the correct level of cooking (warm, low, high) and the time! It will also switch to warm if you are not there when the time is up! I really like the chalkboard finish! I took it to a recent church potluck, and it was fun to identify the contents with colorful chalk as well as listing the main ingredients (which helps those with food allergies!) This crockpot really stood out from all the other stainless steel models! My food cooked perfectly, and, most important, the pot was super easy to clean! One downside, which may not matter to most, is that it does not reach high temperature quickly. So, give it a few extra minutes if you need to add noodles. orzo, pasta, etc., to a recipe at the end of the cook.

Update of an update: I reached out to Black & Decker regarding this faulty slow cooker and they replaced it with a newer model. I think they know that there are faulty ones out there so if you get one just reach out to them ands they will make it right. I’m still leaving this model at one star because it clearly has issues and I’m not the only one with those issues. Update: I purchased this on August 22, 2023. I’ve used it 2-3 times since then. Unfortunately it is no longer cooking like it should and wouldn’t you know it’s past the return window and there is no support from the seller or manufacturer. I put chicken breasts with broth and turned it on high to get it going then typically turn it down and let simmer until tender. After 8 HOURS on high it would not come to a simmer at all and it didn’t have a lot of broth. The chicken was not cooked tender either. So I put it away and brought it back out this morning to hopefully finish the cooking process and now this morning it’s simmering but barely. I was so hopeful all of these negative comments were flukes and I would get a good one. Well sad to say that’s not what happened so I can not recommend this product at all. Amazon doesn’t give the option to reach out to the seller regarding my issues. There is a link to another site but NO support for slow cookers so what’s the point having the link in there. So now I sit with a moody slow cooker that I can not rely on. I have been looking for a larger slow cooker for months but most has some concerning reviews like breaking glass lids, melting parts, too hot, not hot enough. I was at my wits end trying to find an affordable one to replace my old one that I gave to my daughter. I was almost regretting that I gave it away. I wanted at least a 7qt and one day I just decided to get this brand and I’m thankful that I got a good one. I wanted a locking lid for transporting and 7qts is plenty big. I can’t imagine how big an 8 or 10qt size must be! I want to keen on the digital display because they just always seem to fail so I am hoping it holds up. Right away I washed it and did a crock of chili and it cooked evenly and the temperature seemed accurate. I do like the timer option too to prevent overcooking. I’m definitely happy with this purchase

Works as it should...

As a busy professional constantly trying to balance work and personal life, I found the Black & Decker 7-Quart Digital Slow Cooker to be a real game-changer. Its digital controls are a breeze to operate, making it effortless to set cooking times and heat settings. This means I can easily prepare nutritious meals despite my packed schedule. What I particularly love is the automatic "Keep Warm" function. It's a lifesaver when I'm held up at work or stuck in traffic, as it ensures my meal stays hot and ready to serve. It's this kind of stress-free meal planning that adds flexibility and convenience to my busy days. The 7-quart capacity is another huge plus for me. It's perfect for my weekend batch cooking sessions, saving me precious time during the week. Whether it's a large roast or a whole chicken with vegetables, this slow cooker handles it all with ease. Plus, it's great for meal prepping - I can cook once and eat multiple times. One thing I did notice is that the exterior can get quite hot during use. So, I've learned to be careful when handling it, especially after long cooking periods. The unique chalkboard surface, while not a necessity, adds a touch of fun and practicality. I use it to jot down recipes, cooking times, or even reminders for the week. In terms of value for money, I think this Black & Decker Slow Cooker hits the sweet spot between affordability and functionality. Its convenient features and large capacity make it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to simplify their meal prep process. In summary, as a busy professional, I find this slow cooker an excellent tool that helps me maintain a healthy diet without compromising my schedule.

After my old crockpot broke, I got a new one. It was expensive and "fancy," but low was barely hot, and high was WAY too high. And forget about warm; that was basically the same as off. After a lot of wasted food and melted crockpot liners I broke it by putting cold water into the hot crock, I know I know. We replaced it with his one, and it's perfect! It's easy to use, and the temperatures make sense! My liners don't melt, and my food comes out perfect! I also love that it has a tight seal with the rubber gasket! Seriously, perfect.

Kids love drawing on it when we have supper cooking. Works amazingly. Best one we have ever had. We like the stay warm feature that automatically turns on once cooking time is complete.

Excelente empaque, el material es de excelente calidad y es fácil de usar solo que como no se puede puede abrir hasta el final hay que sazonar bien desde el inicio, pero eso ya es cuestión del cocinero. Estoy muy satisfecha con mi compra.

J'ai remplacé ma vieille Cockpot qui surchauffait ma nourriture par la Black&Decker. Différence de 7°C... Cette nouvelle me permet plus de respecter les temps indiqués dans les recettes. Ce lave facilement. Seul hic, fil d'alimentation court.

I gave this slow cooker 1 star for the cool feature that you can use chalk to write on the outside. I have used this slow cooker a 2 times now. Once to cook soup broth and a once to cook a ham. The slow cooker has not been working properly. The slow cooker took a long time to bring my soup broth to a boil. Once it was boiling, it stopped. It was just warming after that, even though the setting was on high. I slow cooked a ham for Thanksgiving. The ham was in the slow cooker for just over 8 hours and not completely cooked. during this time I had it on high for a quarter of the time, and on low the rest. This may be a faulty slow cooker that I received, but it is not working as it should for me.

Really like slow cooker. Easy to use good size. Like locking handles. Worth buying.
