Refrigerator Crockpot

A crockpot that starts as a refrigerator and switches into cooking mode.

Who

People who can’t be home at a certain time to start their crockpot meal, but want a crockpot meal when they get home.

What

Develop a crockpot that has a refrigerator component and can be programmed to switch to cooking mode at a certain time.

How

Most crockpot meals require 4-8 hours of cooking, which means you need to be home 4-8 hours before you want to eat. This invention will allow people to set up the meal in the morning, go to work for 8 hours, do their after work activities (ex: kids sporting events, go to the gym, etc) and then come home to their ready-made crockpot meal without having to be home to start the meal 4-8 hours before eating.

Competitors

There is something called the “CoolCooker” on Amazon that seems to do a similar thing, but it says it is not available. The reviews also say it’s bulky and needs a lot of improvement. Seems like this was all from 2016 so I am not sure if they are still developing anything.
