Really pleased. Just purchased 2 of this size. I already have larger versions of these and they are particularly good at making great curries using the cheaper cuts of meat. (Always turns out succulent and tasty). Or they make the best light and 'fluffy' rice (my other ways of making rice do not turn out 'well' at all). I will still use the larger size to do the rice. The Bay leaves, Cloves and Cardamom pods really infuse better with the 'slow' cook. Likewise if I'm making 'yellow' rice (just adding Turmeric) the longer cooking time allows me use use a bit less and it to really get into the rice - it's also a 'cinch' to add a little butter at the end of cooking. The slow cookers are also ideal for keeping what's left 'warm' in case anyone wants some more (they usually do). I do like to serve a variety of sauces, so I'm going to use the 2 smaller ones to do a different variety each in. Using the slow cookers gives me more time at the end of cooking and 'frees' me up to get some fresh chapattis or roti ready in the oven and fry-up some fresh crispy poppadoms on the hob. Highly recommended.

Not yet used this but have. Brought this size to fit my campervan - need a nice small sized slow cooker as space is at a premium. Can’t wait to try it out for a proper Sunday roast rather than buying pre cooked sliced beef. It is dinky at 1.8ltr but it will fit 2-3 chicken breasts, small joint but probably not a chicken. Our other larger cooker which we have had for years is the same brand so I’m expecting the quality to be great.

Bought this as a present. The person was super excited to receive it. Really good and portable slow cooker, good for whoever doesn’t have a lot of space. Fit small kitchen depending on the size you buy. It has really easy settings. You can find a lot of recipe online on the official website of crockpot; only downside is that as it cook slow, to make a simple white rice it takes up to 5 hours, so bare in mind most of the food you cook in here will take minimum of 2/3 hours to make.

Love it. I've currently got it with 4 lamb shoulders quietly cooking away to itself. I wish I'd bought one years ago. The lid fits, and the food is cooked and tastes so good, I can barely believe how great it is (the food, that is).I've run this using a pair of plug in electricity usage meters. I can't gaurantee they are accurate, but they both agree that the High setting is about 320-330 watts and the Low setting uses 220-230 watts. I think Warm was about 43 watts. The label on the cooker itself says 280 watts for Low and 300 for High.It's 6.5 litres, which people say is 'big'. I wish it were bigger personally. The unit is about as big as my round glass halogen oven, but the bowl capacity is a lot smaller. I can't get the same amount of food (well, meat) in. I'm not complaining though, the electricity costs are minimal and you can still get a lot in - like my 4 lamb shoulders which weigh 3.3 kg with the bones. They leave no room for more.One lucky feature are the 'run off' groves at the top of the bowl that let moisture from the lid back into the bowl. These allow me to insert a Therm Pro thermometer in the meat and take the long lead up and out of the bowl in one of the grooves. The upshot is that I can monitor the temp, and get that 90-95c ideal temperature for the meat without lifting the lid. The thermometer lead is thin enough not to push the lid up either.Yeah, I'm delighted with this. I'm aware that with every slow cooker review I've read, there are always a fair number of people for whom the oven doesn't work, is slower than 'slow' or the lid shatters or doesn't fit snugly. So far, this one's exceeding expectations for me. If I have problems I'll change this review to reflect them. It's got a two-year gaurantee, though, so that's reassuring.

A very nice black slow cooker. The controls are simple to use, and it is easy to clean. Within a few hours, it cooks a nice stew or soup without you having to watch over it all the time. Reasonably priced too. and reliable.

£23 for a heated pot is less than just a regular soup pot. It's my first and only slow cooker, so I can't compare it to others, but I've made two soups, rice, and slow-cooked pulled pork, and all tasted tremendous. The 2.4L size is good for up to 2.5 adults. The only downside is the marking order on the dial: it goes low, high, and then keep warm, rather than keep warm, low, high, as I would expect to find the highest setting at the end of the knob.

This was on Sale so an impulse buy as my other slow cooker is too big for my as a single person.This little beauty made me a glorious curry, large portions plus 2 to go in the freezer.This is definitely going to earn its place in my kitchen as I can't stand for long periods so throwing ingredients in and leaving the pot to work its magic is just what I need.
