 Excellent! March 17, 2008

I have owned this for a year now with absolutely no complaints. It cooks perfectly everytime and is small enough for cooking a meal for 2 but large enough for family size meals.
I previously bought a much larger slow cooker as I thought it would allow for big batches of soups - which it indeed does. What I did not realise is that there is a minimum amount that can be cooked in slow cookers and so bought this one for my smaller dishes. I now only really use this one.
It is worth purchasing a slow cooker cook book as it makes a huge difference to slow cooking. Understanding the basics and how to adapt traditional meals for slow cookers is vital.
I would not be without this product and recommend to anyone that likes hastle free healthy cooked food.
Does exactly what it says on the tin. February 11, 2008

Again i purchased this from all the 5 star reviews it got.............and i was not let down. Having never owned a slow cooker before i was a little apprehensive about my first purchase. I read the previous reviews with great interest on this model and many others. I decided to go with this Morphy Richards model and i was not disappointed.
After reading the instructions carefully i set about making my first dish by following one of the recipes that came in the book. After 5 hours i could not wait to try it out. I must admit my first venture in the slow cooking world was not as good as it could have been but i have improved vastly since and it has saved me a load of time in the kitchen now and we use this at least twice a week to cook food while we are at work.

I was anxious when it came to buying this because I have had the same slow cooker for 20-30 years, and it has never let me down. However, I have moved into a newly built house with a spanking new kitchen, so my old orange slow cooker didn't really match the stainless steel sink and other mod-cons. So, I got rid of my old one, and decided to buy this. It is amazing! You just cook up the meat and veg in a pan, and then bang it into the slow cooker on high for about 30 mins, then on low for the rest of the day or overnight. This is the best slow cooker on the market. The lid stays on tight, so steam stays in the cooker, therefore the food keeps it's liquid. I would recomend this to anyone. I liked it so much I got it for a present for someone.
Great for the 9 to 5 November 6, 2007

I bought this slow cooker as i've just started working full time after finishing uni, on my Mum's recommendation. I'll admit I was sceptical about slow cookers - not getting to a high enough temp and cooking for hours on end. But I have to say Mum's are always right!! I haven't had a problem with the slow cooker its self, its easily big enough for a family of 4 and is really easy to clean. The slow cooker doesn't take up a great deal of space either. The recipes included in the manual use mainly store cupboard ingredients and are really simple to follow.
I was sceptical at first but now I'd recommend this to anyone who doesn't fancy cooking a proper meal when they get home after a hard day's work. Plus you'll be greeted by a delicious smell when you walk through the door!! What could be better?
Simple and easy... just right for me! September 8, 2006

I'm a mum of two young children and I'm trying to get an Art degree..... I also get pain in my knees from standing for any length of time. I was getting to the point when I would come home from college and just ring in a pizza.. or stick something under the grill because I was in no fit state to cook anything.... Needless to say, after a few weeks of this, we were all feeling grotty! ( and I felt guilty...)
Investing in a slow cooker has made a big difference to us all and it's now part of our routine. I can't compare it with others as I haven't tried anything else, but my Morphy Richards Slow Cooker has been fab.
I'm usually feeling ok when I'm up first thing, so it isn't much hassle to do the prep, sling it all in the pot and get on with the rest of the day..... But if I'm feeling ok in the evening, I might attempt something more complicated, put it in the pot, and store it all in the fridge for the morning.... so I can even get a bit of a lie-in.... (not that I ever do.... )
It's such a pleasure to come home and just serve up. I only have one pot to wash with the plates too, another bonus when you're whacked!
I have seen some of the cookers with a "keep warm" function... which looks interesting.. but I have to say, If I have been away from home longer than I intended to be, as long as the recipe is being cooked on low, it's always still fine.
I bought a couple of great vegetarian slow cooker books and we've had some great meals from it.. moussaka, leek and skitaki mushroom gratin...even lasagne.... (have a Durban Curry on the go at the minute...) Admittedly, at first I subjected my lot to some very sloppy dishes.. (didn't trust the instructions to use less water!!) ... but now I have really got the hang of it. Everything tastes great and I know it's good for us all too.... (Have to be careful being a veggie!)
The removable pot is pretty cool... I don't know if you're meant to be able to stick it under the grill to brown things... but I do... and haven't had problem with it.... though I know some of the more expensive models allow you to...
It's a standing joke amongst my friends that I am a slow cooker obsessive now...
But I don't care... Xmas shopping has been easier this year.. they're all getting one!!
... I even got one for my caravan... ( saves gas, economical with electricity... and my time )
Hope this helps!
