Overview
A 1.5-quart ceramic slow cooker with a teal exterior and black interior, offering high, low and warm settings for small-batch cooking for one or two people.
Sized for one or two servings rather than a family meal, this is IMUSA's compact take on the classic crockpot, with a removable dishwasher-safe pot that doubles as a serving dish. Buyers unfamiliar with the brand report it performing on par with name-brand slow cookers they already own, though the outer housing runs hot to the touch even on the low or warm settings and the unit ships without printed instructions.

- High, low and warm settings

Who it's for
Fits singles or couples cooking small portions of soup, chili or braises, or anyone wanting a second small cooker for camping or a small kitchen. Not sized for family-scale batch cooking.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers who bought this unfamiliar brand were surprised at how well it performed compared to their Hamilton Beach and other name-brand crockpots, and repeatedly call out the size as ideal for one or two people. The main gripe is that the whole unit gets very hot to the touch even on low or warm settings, and one reviewer notes there are no printed instructions to explain the setting differences.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Compact 1.5-quart size fits one or two servings
- Removable ceramic pot is dishwasher safe
- Performs comparably to name-brand cookers per reviewers
- Doubles as a serving dish with side handles
- Exterior housing runs hot even on low or warm
- No printed instructions included
Performance notes
The three-position dial covers warm, low and high, and reviewers describe it holding a steady simmer without boiling over on low. Several note the exterior housing gets noticeably hot during cooking regardless of setting, so pot holders are needed to move it, and the unit doesn't come with instructions explaining the difference between settings.
