Slow Cooker Base

360 Cookware Slow Cooker Base
4 Temperature Settings | 155–255°F Range | 9.125" Base Plate

The accessory that quietly transforms the cookware you already have.

The Slow Cooker Base starts from a premise most slow cooker appliances ignore entirely: the pot is already the best part. A dedicated slow cooker is a large, single-purpose appliance built around a ceramic insert that does one thing at one temperature range and then takes up permanent counter or cabinet real estate for the privilege. The 360 Slow Cooker Base is a heating element — compact, purposeful, and designed to work underneath the 360 pots already in the kitchen, turning surgical grade stainless steel cookware into a countertop slow cooker and warmer without adding a redundant vessel to the equation.

Paired with the 2.3-Quart Casserole Pan, it becomes a countertop warmer that holds mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and cheese dips at exactly the right temperature through a dinner party or a game day spread — without a chafing dish, without constant stovetop attention, without anything cooling down between the kitchen and the table. Paired with the 4-Quart or 6-Quart Gourmet Stock Pot, it becomes a proper slow cooker — chili, stew, soup, braised meat — set in the morning and ready when the day is done.

Four temperature settings across a 155–255°F range give genuine control over what the base is doing, from a gentle hold to a proper low-and-slow simmer. The 9.125" base plate fits securely under compatible 360 pieces, and the black anodized steel heating surface transfers heat evenly into the cookware above it.

The result is slow cooker convenience, 360 Cookware construction, and one less large appliance to find a home for.

Note: The heating surface is a black anodized steel plate surrounded by a phenolic case. It is a heating element for the cookware — not a cooking surface itself.

• Compact footprint replaces a large single-purpose appliance without sacrificing any of the slow cooker functionality
• Even heat transfer from the anodized steel plate into the cookware above it — consistent low-temperature cooking without monitoring
• Handcrafted in the U.S.A. — built to the same standard as the cookware it supports
• The “set it and forget it” experience, delivered through pots built to last a lifetime

Native Manor Note: The slow cooker appliance is one of the more honest pieces of kitchen equipment — it does what it says, and what it says is useful. The problem is the insert: a ceramic vessel that has no other life in the kitchen, packaged inside a housing that takes up significant space to perform one function. The 360 Slow Cooker Base separates the heating element from the vessel entirely, letting the surgical grade stainless pots already doing the heavy lifting on the stovetop do it on the counter too. Less equipment, more capability, and the same cookware throughout.
