Yes I love it but here is the deal.
Many people have complained it is hard to clean out due to the rim it has and hard to get the water out for the same reason.
Well everything in life isn't easy what can I say.
I simply clean the thing and sponge up what reaming water with paper towel and let it dry.

If I had to do it over again I would have gotten two ten liter crocks instead of one 15 liter crock.
The 10 liter is 9 1/2" dia. x 11 1/2" H (w/o Lid), 13" H (w/ Lid)
The 15 liter is 11 1/4" dia. x 13 1/4"H (w/o Lid), 16"H (w/ Lid)
They are made in china but they are lead free.
The biggest mistake is looking in them too soon and or too much they need to be left alone and let them do their thing.
I have to say the 15 liter crock full is a bugger for me to pick up and move.
