Chalkboard 3.5L Electric Slow Cooker - Cooks upto 4 portions, 3 heat settings, high/low/keep warm, Removable ceramic pot for easy cleaning, Glass lid, Energy saving, 200W, 24180

This is a great little slow cooker - perfect for batching up to four portions of a meal. It has the traditional ceramic pot which makes it very effective and low energy. The upright design is fab for my small kitchen - smaller footprint on the work top and in the cupboard. I didn’t but it for the chalkboard function, but rather for the size and upright design. It’s very good value and simple to use. Looks very smart. It’s old school manual but that suits me, I don’t need complexity or digital options that can easily break.

Excellent value for money.

I initially bought a ‘crockpot’ slow cooker after I volunteered for a church casserole community meal, this Sunday, but after considering this good for one or two people, but not big enough for more, I returned this and I bought this Russell Hobbs slow cooker so I could cook a bigger stew for my community. I cooked ‘Good Food’s’ Vegetarian Winter Hotpot’ on high power for four hours. I cant comment on how it cooks meat, as I have been a vegetarian for 40 years, but it seems to have cooked the vegetables well and they retained their taste well. You can write on the side with chalk (supplied) which is handy in a communal setting when you have loads of slow cookers everywhere. There are options on the dial for warming, and cooking on low, medium and high heats. The only thing I would add is that the electrical cord is quite short so you have to position it right and I had to move my air fryer out of the way for instance so it’s not within 50cms of the side of it.

Only used it once so far. The only problem I had was that the juices spilt over a little but this was probably my fault for over filling it with liquid. Lesson learned. Otherwise food was good.

Great product second 1 I have had just broke the bowl on the first 1

Great size for two, very versatile, easy to use, very ti.e saving, colour is great and the chalk feature is very useful, perfect

Great quality and speedy delivery. My daughter loves it especially being able to write on it.

A neat solution in the kitchen. Small and tall. Used it for beef and vegetables - good meal in the evening. Easy to clean. Tried a mince and veg curry kept it going from lunch till evening.
