I have felt this way also. The actual cooking time might be 30 minutes for something, but it takes 15 minutes to get up to temp (especially if it's frozen meat) and then might take another 15 afterward for natural release, so then it's essentially one hour in the pot versus what people might say "cooks in only 30 minutes".
That said, I really like my pot and use it at least once a week. I've yet to get my crockpot out again since I got the pot.
