But one has three different size pots to fit it - that's my favorite. Neither have locking lids, but I'll get my husband to clean out one of the large coolers and use it to carry the largest pot with the vegetables in it The base can go in a cardboard box to insulate it.

The second one I have never used - it was passed down from a deceased friend. I really should get rid of it to someone who needs one. Maybe I will take it for Thanksgiving or Christmas and "forget" to bring it home and not claim it afterwards!
