Great cooker but very short life
I loved the shape and size of this slow cooker and for the first year and a bit it worked very well. But, not long out of warranty it died
Purchased at Bing Lee for $139.00.

Worked great at first but that was short lived
loved this when I first got it as no more browning in a separate pan then transferring it to the slow cooker. Noticed the coating on the insert started to bubble after a few uses but was still ok. In the 16 months I have had it I have only used it about 10-12 times and it is already broken. On the high setting it is not even cooking things properly after 6 hours, it will not get hot enough. Tried it one last time last night and after being on for 2 hours on high the contents was about the same temp as hot water from a tap. I had to fish out my old slowcooker from the garage and wash it up and transfer everything into that to cook dinner. Extremely disappointed with this product to not even last longer than 1.5 years.
Purchased in January 2021 at Myer Retail Stores for $189.00.

Good sized family slow cooker
Good unit, can make a really big batch of our favourite slow cooked meal. The insert works well on the stove to brown meat first, it's also really easy to clean!
Moisture is locked in by the well fitting lid and there is no vent for steam. In my experience this is a good thing.
it would have been nice if the insert was cast iron and not non-stick coated aluminium and if the control knob didn't feel so delicate. With this being said, the price would likely be substantially more.
Overall I am happy with this purchase and would buy it again.

Pretty good - light not coming on 18 months old
I have been very happy with this slow cooker which I have had for 28 months, great to be able to sear however I fear I may have a faulty product as the light does not come in when i turn it on even though the element heats up. Am a little concerned to use it in case there is an electrical fault.

Great Slow Cooker but our lid shattered!
Love the slow cooker, worked great cooked lots of meals in it...then our lid shattered after cleaning it (it was cool before cleaned) and we cant use it any more.
Replacement lid is around $50...half the price of a new one.... Just out of warranty also so its kinda a bummer.

Used everyday so far
At this point in time I have had this about a week. I have found it easy to clean after use. Bit concerned at how hard it appears to cook on low. Unlike others who have had meat dry out it is not a problem I have had as yet taking note to leave things like gravy beef in largish pieces. I don't use direct heat on the insert having small gas burners and direct heat in one small area is asking for trouble. Have not used the auto function as yet. The large 7lt insert is both a blessing and a bit of a pain. If you are doing a small amount just for 2 I do pay a lot more attention. All in all at this point in time I like this.

Fantastic except for cooking pot
I love this slow cooker - except for the cooking pan! The coating inside has deteriorated and to replace it as a spare part costs nearly as much as buying a new complete machine.
Moved house and now have induction cooktop so can’t use to sear anymore :(
Keep up with the times Breville and bring out a new model that you can do everything with.

Love the size and versatility
I received this slow cooker for Christmas and love it. I'll address what the downsides is it does cook faster than most slow cooker but I use this as a plus well when i forget to put it on early and the lack of keep warm function. Now for the best bit you can use this slow cooker on the stove top to seal your meat etc AND put it in the oven to brown off roasts (use this all the time). The pot itself is big I can fit a large chicken potatoes and carrots to feed 4 with left overs in it. I chose this slow cooker after lots of research as it's one ...Read more
of the few and certainly only one at it's price point that is large and can go from stove to slow cooker to oven. In short I love it the only things that could improve it would be a timer and keep warm function.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Love it!
I love that I can brown on the stovetop, which means less washing up and the flavour stays in the dish. The large capacity means I can cook double batches of food easily. The non-stick pan means an easy clean up. I will never go back to a slow cooker that I can't put on the stove.

Too large for me but you cannot beat this price.
I bought this slow cooker years ago and it was still running strong. The only downside I can complain is the size. I cannot find a smaller one in my local store so I have to buy this (maybe they have a smaller size elsewhere?). However, the price is good and it runs for years working good. So overall I still think this product deserves a 5 star.

Great slow cooker, even works as a rice cooker if you keep and eye on it
Definitely happy with the cooking results. We often leave this on while at work. Don't worry we have a stone bench and the wiring is very new in the house. The only thing that lets this down is the temp settings. I wish there was more of a range. Don't get me wrong I would definitely buy another one.

This is a great slow cooker.
We have been very happy with our slow cooker. It has huge capacity which suits our big family. We can feed a family of five and have well and truly enough for another meal for the freezer. It is so handy to be able to put it on the top of the stove to brown onions and meats and then transfer the whole thing for slow cooking. I can put it also straight from the unit on the table which means I don’t have much washing up.

Awesome product!
This is a large slow cooker. It easily holds a leg of lamb, which mine does on a regular basis. It holds it temperature well. You can put the insert on the stove top to brown your food before slow cooking it.
It’s very easy to clean.
My only negative is that the insert handles & the exterior do get hot, but knowing that you take precautions not to burn yourself.
I love this machine. It’s so large that you make extra & then freeze the leftovers.

We have used this so much!
This Is great you can sear meat in the pot on the stove and then cook for up to 6 hours. We have used it for ribs, curries,red wine chicken. Such a great investment. We went for the larger size so we can freeze leftovers. Bought from Myer Sale such a bargain.

Wish I'd bought one earlier
Had been meaning to get a slow cooker for years. After some research I bought this one on sale for $99. I am extremely happy with the results. Love the fact that I can brown and sear on the cook top and then pop the pot into the slow cooker. Saves on washing up and mucking about. Perfect for a leg of lamb or a large piece of pork. Kids are getting a little tired of slow cooked curries and stews, but until they start cooking meals, too bad!
