Recommend your slow cooker...

look up America's Test Kitchen equipment reviews for the slow cookers. They do rigorous testing and can tell you which ones are worth the money and always recommend a best buy

When you transfer from the refrig to the slow cooker, do you set it on the counter for awhile first--or just put it in cold and turn the cooker on? Thanks!

No you put it right on the heat source. No need to warm it up because it is some kind of metal not ceramic.

Great to know--thanks! I don't have the Ninja but just got this Cuisinart and love it! Hoping to do as you suggested since it's not ceramic either.
