    Excellent communication. I needed this item shipped immediately and the seller was able to do that. The packaging was exceptional and the bowl was just as described. I was on vacation and broke a bowl in the condo and needed to replace it before I left. The seller understood my situation and shipped this to me at the complex where I was vacationing. It was a great value and the expedited shipping was reasonable. Highly recommend this seller!!

    I had a great experience with this seller. They have many items to choose from. I ended up getting 2 of my crockpots back in service. The crockpot liners were very well packaged. Great communication and fast shipping. Both liners were in good shape and very clean as described. Both were good prices. I am very happy with my purchase.
