How do the heating elements work in the multimeal multicooker? Most of your crockpot brand appliances have a heating element as a band around the sides, not the bottom. Is it different for searing &amp; steaming?

Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us. The Crock-Pot&reg; MultiMeal Multicooker and Programmable Slow Cooker is a versatile appliance designed to perform multiple cooking functions, including slow cooking, searing/saut&eacute;ing, steaming, and baking. Searing typically requires direct bottom heat to achieve proper browning, while slow cooking benefits from even, surrounding heat. The MultiMeal's design accommodates these needs to ensure optimal cooking performance across its various settings. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! CrockPot&reg; Consumer Care

Are you still making these? Sam's Club is sold out. The item is most useful with the 8 qt piece, which seems to not be available on its own. I was hoping to gift this for the holidays.

I found that the one available from Amazon was only for the two smaller pots. I got mine from Sam's Club and it has both the full sized pot and the 2 smaller ones.
