Size - You can easily fit a joint / whole chicken in this slow cooker. There are only two of us and it's probably a bit big for our needs but would be excellent for a family.
Settings - There are 3 settings, low, medium and high. A lot of slow cooker books recommend starting the cooker on high. That is definitely not needed with this slow cooker as low is a bit, well, high!
Cooking time - A lot of reviewers have criticised the cooking time / thermostat but I don't have a problem with it and never 'crozzle' anything. Yes, if you turn the slow cooker on before you leave the house in the morning and don't eat until say 7pm then the contents will be crozzled. However, I bought a timer plug for mine. I set it to come on on low at around Midday and everything is cooked perfectly by the time I get home from work. I also find that the over eager thermostat can sometimes be a benefit....I've put mine on high at around 3pm for a couple of hours and then low for a couple of hours and again, everything is cooked to perfection.

I have never used a slow cooker and I am always reading forums about how great they are in cooking tasty meals and saving you time. So now I have 2 children and one at school I REALLY need something to help with cooking healthy meals when the kids come home. I find I have little time to prepare and cook meals in the evening when my son has homework and the other usual things to do in the home rush hour of 4-8:30pm.
So I looked at the Which? report and it recommended this slow cooker as the 'best buy' - easy to use, clean and allows you to put a whole chicken in it and cook it very well.
I now prepare my meals in the late evening when children are now in bed and store it in the fridge. I prepare two days worth of food at once. Morning before I leave the house I then tip the food (meat+herbs+onions etc) into the slow cooker & quickly wash & chop carrots. That's it!!! Just 5mins work in the morning. Set it to medium. Later after work at 6pm we return home to a hot ready to eat cooked meal. Just need to grill chippatti or quick noodles and eat!!!
Recommend this book Which you must get if you are new to slow cooking or just want fantastic recipies.
Essentials of Slow Cooking: Delicious New Recipes for Slow Cookers and Braisers (Williams-Sonoma Essentials).
As I cooked for 2 days in the slow cooker the next day I just need to heat up the food.

By A Customer
A slow cooker veterans we find that this cooker cooks fast. All we've done so far has had great flavour and even cooking, but you need to reduce the time by about 10-15%. Capacity great when doing a joint, but 3.5lt better for everyday family meals.
