I would love to find liners for smaller slow cookers - like 1.5 quart. Any suggestions? I used a regular sized bag which was huge and wasteful.

I don't know if PanSaver makes small bags but an Amazon reviewer of True Liberty chicken bags, sized 12 x 20, said that these fit her/his 1.5 quart slow cooker perfectly. Sold by Amazon. Hope this helps.

I have only used the large Pan Savers. I use them in my 6qt and 4qt slow cookers.

I couldn't find a pyrex dish that was really a good fit - they were all too big to fit into the carrier and zip the top closed. It may help to know that the carrier's dimensions are 6" long X 5" wide X 2 1/2" deep. I did find from ziploc a small casserole dish in their versaglass line http://www.ziploc.com/WhatsNew/Pages/ZiplocVersaGlassContainers.aspx that left a little extra room in it, but it isn't large enough to hold a meal for 2 adults. A better solution for me was to buy some disposable aluminum cooking pans - they fit perfectly in the carrier, but the only place I have been able to find them was at Gordon's Food Service, or at the dollar store in a three pack for $1. Are you planning to make a meal in it for a family? If yes, a large casserole dish will not fit...not even a 5 X 7 or loaf pan will fit.

I used the liner the other day when I cooked corned beef and cabbage. Cooker was on high for over 8 hours and the liner was fine...looked the same as when I put it in the cooker after all that time.

Does anyone know of any OTHER place to buy extra containers? CrockPot's website seems to always be out of stock of the extra containers.

I was lucky to find the right sized lids at one of my local thrift stores. I looked for glass, insulated tops, and the right circumference. I try to be as thrifty as possible. The pans don't seem to mind.

I used to get the smallest ones, but I got so tired of always having to re-order and fiddle with them. now I use a regular filter gauge that attaches in the middle of the hose. its like less than $5 or so, but no more changeing filters and it lasts.

Go to Google and type in exactly what you want and you may find it there through a link. I never use my crock pot so if you can't find one I may sell you mine.

Hello Joel,I have a Rival Crock Pot Slow Cooker as well with the plastic handle. My question to you is did you get this handle to work and was the bolt to short or the diameter to big/small?Thank you in advance!

Our pressure cooker is a 15.5 Qt size. I think that gauge is a standard size that fits most models.

I don't know, but, do you know why they don't make the 1 1/2 quart pots anymore ? My aunt ( and my mother and I ) have had these pots for in my aunt's case 50 something years. She had a hole in her pot, and I can not find one. New !

Mine is a 7 quart and fit easily. Beware the ripping handles though, I almost dropped the crockpot on the sidewalk when the handles ripped.

I have prepared meals in these liners then placed the crock pot liner in a gallon size freezer bag. I am able to use the freezer bag over and over because the food does not touch it. Hope that helps

Go with the larger size, you will love the left overs! I had a smaller crock pot earlier and it never made enough for leftovers. Also, if you have company you will appreciate the larger size.

Hi! I just checked and a "Reynolds" brand 1 5/8 inch mini paper muffin liner fits perfectly. I also tried their 2 inch liners and they were a bit too large, but, in desperation :) could probably work. I like these pans b/c they are heavy and MADE IN USA! Best wishes!

I have only used it to keep dips warm and don't feel the size of the crock pots lends itself to doing more than that... If you want something to use as a slow cooker, my sister-in-law got one that is a little larger (the three crock pots are oval) and I'm pretty sure it would work well.

I would suggest the 5.5 quart. I think I'm going to order one of those today. Good luck.

Ron, as many of the people responding to your question have done, I purchased the 6 Qt. as well. I often downsize my recipes to a serving for 2 or 3 and a great cook book for these recipes is America's Test Kitchen, "Cooking for Two, 2012". There are slow cooker recipes that work great in the larger slow cooker and come out just fine. I purchased this specific Cuisinart because of its oblong shape - makes it easy to cook meat or chicken on skewers. And, with the larger size you are prepared for the eventual times you want to cook a roast or larger meal. Hope this was helpful.
