The SMARTAKE Slow Cooker Liners are a repeat purchase for me due to their convenience and ease of use. These liners are robust enough to serve multiple purposes in my household. Not only do they line my crockpot for mess-free cooking, but I also use them in my cat’s litter box and my ice cube drawer. They withstand my cat’s claws without tearing, keep my ice fresh, and make clean-up a breeze.
Although these bags are designed for a wide range of slow cooker sizes, from 3QT to 8QT, suitable for both oval and round pots, some users might find the opening smaller than expected. For my smallest crockpot, I have to stretch the bag around it, which results in some excess material. The dimensions, 13″ x 21″, suggest a larger capacity, yet it’s the opening size that may pose a challenge for larger crock pots. Noting the measurements before purchasing could prevent this mismatch.
Durability is a standout feature of these liners. They are tough enough that even a fork or knife jab at the bottom doesn’t cause leaks, ensuring the crockpot stays clean. The price is reasonable, and they’re comparable to name brands. I appreciate that one package contains a generous number of liners, making them a better value than those I’ve previously purchased at grocery stores.
The convenience of these liners has transformed my slow cooking routine. No longer do I dread the aftermath of cooking; these liners mean no more baked-on food to scrub, and my arthritic hands are grateful for the relief. They are also versatile enough to be used for oven-cooked casseroles. The liners’ ease of use and the simple cleanup they offer make them indispensable in my kitchen.
