1026011 Mini Warmer, Black

I've purchased 2 of these and I'm very satisfied with them. They are compact in size and save counter space.

I returned this. The description for this says, "304-grade stainless steel". It may be 304, but it CONTINUALLY has a black film on the steel insert. Many pots & pans that I have are 304 and do no leach black oxide like this. I used it five times. After use when cleaning, the rag or paper towel was gray. I read online to clean 304 with vinegar and baking soda and a lot of elbow grease, which didn't work. I then tried cleaning with Bar Keeper's Friend, which didn't help either. The same result in the end – much gray residue on the cleaning sponge/towels. I am just not comfortable exposing the contents of this warmer to this potentially harmful soot. The manufacturer needs to address this IMHO.

Keeps soup, chili, liquids at consistent temps!

We just saw this product at the National Restaurant Association show. We just placed an order with someone else as Amazon didn't show stock. This is the newest product from Tomlinson. This saves us counter space and we can serve a larger variety of soups than before. Heats up fast, and is very nicely constructed. We also use the larger 10 Qt version. These are built just as well. Great buy!
