The children can eat first and then food can be the same and freshly warm for when the adults are ready to eat. - Removable pot and lid, both of these are dishwasher proof which are brilliant for those with not much time, you can just pop them in the dishwasher and leave it.

When my auntie suggested buying me a slow cooker for Christmas I wasn't overly impressed. Normally I get either jewellery or perfume from her so the thought of a slow cooker was slightly disappointing... especially when I'd been hinting about some perfume for a couple of weeks. My mum tried to convince me it would be a brilliant thing to have in my kitchen so in the end we struck a deal... she'd get me a cheaper slow cooker than the one she'd been looking at originally and I could still have a small bottle of my perfume... deal done! Before I got the slow cooker I spent a lot of time wondering what one actually was, obviously I had some idea that it would cook ...  Read the complete review

I like nothing better than to be able to bung a few things in a casserole dish, forget it for a few hours and then come back to find a well cooked casserole or stew. In a conventional oven, it is, of course, possible to cook a perfectly good casserole. However, I have always found that, when cooking beef in particular, it is hard to cook the meat at a low enough temperature to make it tender without burning. A slow cooker, although probably not a vital piece of kitchen equipment, is therefore a very welcome addition to my kitchen. Why I chose this model To be honest, price is the main reason. It is available online from Tesco for just £19.96 at the ...  Read the complete review

Crowned ReviewTesco SC356 Slow Cooker: Cheap and cheerful and great for veggies too! (1022 words)

The past few years have seen a resurgence in interest in a kitchen gadget known as the slowcooker, originally popular in the '70s. Not having much counter space, I resisted buying one for ages. Also, being veggie, I wasn't sure how much use I would get from one given that they seem most popular for cooking cheaper cuts of meat to make them tender. Tesco usually sell this own-brand 3.5L slowcooker for about £20 (as of this writing they are £15 in my local Tesco), but about a year ago they had them on sale at only £10. I walked past them on two shopping trips before succumbing to temptation. For £10 I had to try it! Slowcookers generally come in two main sizes - ...  Read the complete review

Tesco SC356 Slow Cooker: Tesco Slow Cooker - as good as leading brands! (621 words)

I recently purchased the Tesco slow cooker using my clubcard vouchers. I had £12 worth of vouchers I didn't know what to do with, so when I stumbled across the slow cooker while browsing Tesco website and saw it reduced from £15 to £12, I couldn't refuse! I have had a slow cooker before - a Crock-Pot branded one - which I loved but unfortunately broke the ceramic pot, which left me slow cooker-less for a year or so as I never got round to replacing it (until now). I did miss not having one, as I really think that casseroles, curries, chilli etc. just don't taste the same when cooked the conventional way. Slow cookers are also fantastic for cooking joints ...  Read the complete review
