 Super Slow Cooker September 14, 2008
Little Miss Sunshine (England)
This slow cooker is fabulous, i put my ingredients in before i go to work, set the timer and when i return, i have a lovely tender meal.
There is only one temperature for this cooker however, this has not proved an issue, i set the appropriate cooking time and once the timer has finished, it goes to automatic keep warm.
This cooker is massive although, you can 1/2 or even 1/4 fill the pot and it fine. I know it seems strange, but you only need to add a tiny bit of water, otherwise you end up with sloppy dishes, It won't dry out honest! .

As a very keen cook, I was very excited to try my hand at slow cooking, having read some interesting modern recipes for the slow cooker. I decided to spend a little extra for this model as I liked the idea of having a timer and a keep warm feature. However, I failed to realise that this unit only has one heat setting and the timer is very limiting. I am unable to find whether this setting is high or low, therefore will need to gamble with overcooking fish dish recipes requiring low setting. Also, the timer can only be set for a minimum of 4 hours. Again, if a recipe requires less time cooking, I cannot use the keep warm facility as this can not be manually switched on prior to 4hrs. In its favour, it is a large slow cooker and I have made some fabulous stews and curries, however for anything more delicate - think about the cheaper option with the different heat settings!

I got this slow cooker last October. It has proved to be an excellent investment. Big enough to take a leg of lamb or a whole chicken or feed 10 if required, but feeds a family of 4 comfortably on a daily basis. It is fairly big, (which may be a drawback if you need to leave it out all the time), and cant really be washed in the dishwasher or put in the oven - but this hasn't been a problem in practice. The timer is simple to set with a couple of button pushes and after the specified finish time it goes into 'keep warm' mode, I Use it 3-4 times a week , The kids eat everything that comes out of it with no leftovers. the pot itself developed a crack this week - I phoned Morphy Richards who say they will replace the cooker free of charge - can't say better than that, problems happen , its how they are dealt with that counts

Buying this for a friend as i now own one due to a staff member going on about hers and whats she's having when she gets in without cooking! My first dish was a soup and my goodness what a life and time saver,I was able to have a good nights sleep without having to wake n check every so often,got up saturday morning my soup was cooked well,you couldn't get the meat any softer than what it was,soooooooooooooooooo soft just like cotton wool! I had all saturday to myself which i spent with my feet up and doing my word search with a glass of bacardi breezer--pure luxury and a fantastic purchase-every woman should own one of these instead of a man!!!!

I was looking for a supersize slow cooker so we could cook large joints (like the huge leg of lamb in our freezer.)
Our first try outs of this slow cooker all left us concluding that we'd made the right choice here; every time, the meat came out so tender and delicious. Almost perfect.... So, on this occasion, it's 5 stars all the way for Morphy Richards.
