Hamilton Beach 33867 Advanced Temp Tracker Slow Cooker review

The Hamilton Beach 33867 Advanced Temp Tracker is a six-quart slow cooker with a temperature probe, a display for current and desired food temperature, and a clip-tight lid. It is a plausible fit for cooks who want temperature-holding capability as well as a family-size crock, but its public product information is less specific about the operating routine than the similarly named 33866. The two model numbers are not interchangeable: the 33867 page gives its own dimensions and ceramic-pot description, and the 33866 manual linked from that page does not list 33867 in its model table.

Capacity and footprint

The manufacturer calls this a six-quart model and gives a four-pound roast or six-pound chicken as examples. Those examples help with shape and scale; they are not a serving guarantee for every recipe. The long oval vessel may be more useful for a roast or whole bird than a compact round cooker, while a single-portion meal can leave a lot of crock to wash. The listed outside dimensions are 12 inches high by 17.5 inches wide by 11 inches deep. Check the width and lid clearance against your counter or cabinet before deciding; the listed height is not necessarily the height with enough room to open and remove the lid.

Probe feedback is not the same as a confirmed timed program

The 33867 page confirms that it measures and displays current and desired food temperatures, has a patented probe, holds a specific temperature, and is suited to simmering, yogurt and fondue. A separate Hamilton Beach product description for this exact Advanced Temp Tracker model also describes temperature holding for up to 24 hours and names sous vide among the possible uses. That supports shortlisting it for temperature-controlled cooking rather than only fixed-heat, manual slow cooking.

What the 33867 page does not spell out is a free-entry slow-cook countdown, a timer range, an automatic Warm transition, probe placement instructions, or how the probe behaves in an ordinary Low/High slow-cook cycle. Its linked Use & Care document is a 33866 guide whose model table names only 33866. For that reason, the questionnaire should not treat the 33867 as satisfying a digital countdown, probe-assisted slow cooking, or automatic-Warm requirement. If one of those routines is essential, ask Hamilton Beach for a 33867-specific manual before choosing it. For a confirmed timed probe and Warm routine, the 33866 has the clearer model-matched instructions.

Transport and cleanup

The exact product page says the lid clips tight for spill resistance, a useful feature when moving a finished meal. That answers a different need from a sealed food-storage lid: use the clips to carry the cooker, not as a replacement for a container or long-term lid seal. The manufacturer identifies the cooking pot as ceramic and dishwasher-safe. The page does not confirm the lid’s dishwasher status, the crock’s oven or microwave limits, or whether the insert may be used on a stovetop; do not infer those uses from the 33866 guide or from a generic ceramic-pot label.

Where it fits in the Temp Tracker family

The Advanced 33867 shares the family’s central idea—tracking food temperature and holding a target—but that broad similarity should not erase exact-model differences. The 33866 has a model-matched manual describing Low, Medium and High timed cycles, probe use across modes, temperature settings, temperature holding, sous-vide setup, and automatic Warm after a timed slow-cook run. The 33867 page establishes a probe and specific-temperature holding, but not that full control sequence. It also supplies explicit outside measurements, unlike the 33866 page, and names the pot as ceramic. If you want the more fully documented operating plan, compare the 33866. If footprint dimensions and the 33867’s stated probe-and-hold function matter more, verify the exact operating steps and package contents before purchase.

Hamilton Beach’s page showed an add-to-cart option when checked on October 24, 2026; that is only a momentary page observation, not a stock guarantee. This assessment uses the exact 33867 product page and an older official Hamilton Beach description of the same model for its broad temperature-hold and sous-vide claim. It does not claim personal use, measured temperature accuracy, or a 33867 manual that the model table does not identify. Where your choice depends on a precise timer, safety, cleaning or cookware limit, obtain instructions explicitly matched to model 33867 first.
