Yes if you want to take out the center and put it on the table..I love this crock it is the best one I have. I love that it locks so it is easy to transfer place to place if you have to.

No, the handle can not be removed, however, it folds over to the same size as the pan portion. When you store it is only the size of the small pan. I love this for a quick snack.

the pot where the food goes looks ceramic - which then sits in the heating element part which appears to be aluminum (a magnet sticks to it, whereas stainless steel is not magnetic). you can lift out the ceramic pot. hope that makes sense.

Yes, it is removable. I'm not really sure, but I'd guess the ceramic pot weighs at least eight pounds?

I don't think so. It has a removable 30 pint pan that has to be removed and emptied. It's easy to remove, and has a handle.

Yes it is. The pot is tall, but the opening is wide enough not to be an issue. Just use a long handled utensil.

NO. just don't drag pots across it. Clean and shine it after use and it remain beautiful. Mine has. It really is a beautiful appliance if you will care for it.

Yes, I wouldn't say you could stir and serve from it...but if it will just sit on it, then yes.

Yes, the inner pot is removable. We used it for a hot pot dinner and it worked very well. It got hot enough that it when I put boiling stock in it, it stayed hot even with the colder meats and veges. I thought the only thing is that it is fairly thin metal, stainless steel, however, for as many times in a year that I will use it, it should be fine.

I would use it for cheese or chocolate and think it would be fine. I probably would make it and then put it in the pots to keep warm and then serve and enjoy.

The stand is not removeable. The bowl is 5 inches tall and can hold 12 cups of liquid with a 1/2'' space at the top still. Hope this helps.

If it fits and the lid closes comfortably, it is fine to use. Stainless steel inserts are best and there should some space around the pan for easy handling after it is cooked. Allow some time for cooling before attempting to remove pot. Gravy vegetables or chunky soups can be cooked directly in the pressure pan, just keep the heat at medium till pressure is reached, then set on low.

No. The pot is very stable. It is a thing of beauty as well as a mighty five pot to use.

The handle on the pot cannot be removed, but the handle on the cover can. I don't have a 3 quart to seeif it fits in.

I wouldn't use it for that. It is too low and not firm enough for preparing food. Also, it is carved, so you would need to add a glass on top of it, for example, and that's not very practical in my opinion. This is a nice decorative side table. You can use it for serving food but not for prep. I hope this helps.

You wouldn't want to. The heat element is in the unit...not a hot plate to sit the pot on. You could fill the pot but would have to heat on something else. Not really recommended for use.

There is a cord on the base that is plugged into an outlet..when water is ready, remove the pot to serve...Kate
