the workhorse of my kitchen cant do without it

published

I purchased this from K-Mart over a year ago and use it every week. It is a great size, able to easily accommodate the largest of whole chickens, or huge amounts of ingredients.

The bowl is really sturdy and has a good heavy feel. The heat transfers evenly throughout and it is really easy to clean. The weight can be surprising, especially when it is full, so always make sure you have plenty of space to put it down. It will retain heat for a considerable amount of time after it is removed from the base.

The two heat settings are more than enough. I have found that the high setting is very powerful so i reduce my cooking times when using it.

for only $20, this is the best value out there

Excellent

published

This is a great slow cooker and so affordable! I use mine several times a week and everything always turns out perfectly. I find the low setting is still quite hot though so I don't tend to use the high setting much. I also put the pot in the dishwasher for easy cleaning.

This is good but too big for a small family

published

It is really easy to use and the food is delicious
It is very easy to clean but the inside is a bit heavy
I am really satisfied with it, but a bought a pressure cooker now and stopped using it because it took too long to cook normally I turn it on in the morning and the soup is ready when I come back at bight

Great slow cooker

published

Bought this while on holidays because I forgot to take mine and my hubby wanted lamb shanks lol. It's been a great addition to the family and it cooks really well. The only let down is that it doesn't have a timer but it doesn't ruin it though. It's definetly worth it.

I love this

published

It's so easy to use.... easy to clean as u can take out the Caramic bowl as others u can't... and love that once food is done u can leave it on warm til serving time..... it's not overly heavy like some I have used in the past and it has only 2 functions high and low.. so very easy to use especially for those who hate 100s of buttons

Hopeless

published

First time we used it to slow cook corned silverside, after 5 hours it blew the circuit breaker. After several attempts to continue cooking after resetting the circuit breaker it continually tripped the breaker. Received as a gift no receipt and therefore no proof of purchase so have tossed it out.

Inner bowl cracked

published

Had to replace old faithful slow cooker which have used regularly for years so no stranger to slow cooking. old one wasn't an expensive brand (bought from Woolworths about 4 years ago). So bought this Kmart one and after a couple of months we noticed a crack in base... replaced and first use of next one, cooking a chicken on high setting and it heard it crack about an half anhour into cooking. Crack runs right through base. Will replace with a different model.

Cheap, practical, large, reliable.

Why pay more for a fancy name brand? Simple, good quality and excellent value. Set and forget and a melt in mouth texture with wonderful flavours that await you whenever the heck you feel like eating up to 8 hours later...
Truly the ultimate single bachelors essential kitchen appliance, set before work, dinners ready when you get home.

Not what expected.

published

I am quite disappointed with the slow cooker. It is not what I expected. Maybe it is not because of this particular brand, but the overall principle of cooking. I used it two times only. It is easy to clean & quite easy to figure out how to use features.

Just what I need

published

Great slow cooker meat comes out perfect every time. I no longer do my leg of lamb in the oven. I put it straight in the slow cooker and leave it for 8 hours and it comes out perfect just melts in your mouth. I don't know how I ever lived without a slow cooker.

Good cooking results every time, easy to clean, lovely hot meals prepared at the end of the day with no fuss. An absolute autumn winter must have. Highly satisfied with this slow cooker, have recommended to family and friends. Perfect kitchen accessory for busy working people. Only downside is my kitchen now smells too delicious!
