Morphy Richards 3.5L Sear & Stew Slow Cooker, Shatter Resistant Aluminium Pot, 3 Heat Settings, Hob Proof, Easy Clean, 163W, Black, 460012

Not long ago, due to weak arthritic fingers & weak hands, l gave away my old faithful slow cooker, as the ceramic pot was just too heavy. Missed it so, especially as its winter. Pros. Bought this, with its aluminum pot it is perfect. Both lighter & with lower energy use as the heat transference is likely quicker. It looks smart. It arrived in good time, beautifully packaged. Cons. It was a bargain price, no guarantee or recipe book, okay. The only let down is the temperature dial. You simply cannot tell what temp it is on unless very very close. But, now that l know it works, & art is a hobby, I have painted the dial line. Check the pic, you will do the same!

My old Crockpot gave up the ghost. Got this one and it's been used almost every day since it arrived. I do batch cooking. Great to be able to use it to brown (sear) the meat and then transfer straight to heat pot. Heats up very quick. Great price. Nice and light, easy to clean, size (3.5l) sits nicely on worktop and pot can be lifted straight to table. This also saves on washing up. Win, win

Easy to clean

Very happy with this slow cooker. A good size for family meals. Great that onions and meat can be browned on the hob in the aluminium pot before starting the slow cooking. On the slight downside The indicator light is not very bright but I’m sure I can get used to that and the black dial to change setting is all black so you can’t at a glance see which setting it is on. I put a small dot of acrylic paint so I could see what setting it was on. The slow cooker is lightweight and easy to clean. I am very happy with this purchase.

The Morphy Richards 3.5L Sear & Stew Slow Cooker has been a great addition to my kitchen. The shatter-resistant aluminium pot makes it easy to handle, and the three heat settings give plenty of flexibility for slow-cooking or searing. Cleaning is simple, and it’s hob-proof, so I can use it on the stove as well. Perfect for stews, soups, and hands-off cooking. Pros: Three heat settings for flexibility Hob-proof design allows multi-use (brown of meat first) Easy to clean Cons: I'd like a simple delay by X hours feature Lids can get hot, so handle with care Limited colour options

Good quality easy to use and clean highly recommended

Purchased this to replace an old Morphy Richards one (20+ years old) that although still working fine the non-stick coating had started to shell off. We use it all the time to make delicious meals while we are out and about especially during the colder months. We wouldn't be without one. We choose the MR Sear and Stew one as it has a metal non-stick pot which can be used on the hob to sear or preheat before slow cooking. Brilliant - highly recommend this model as it is much more versatile than the ceramic pot types and not so heavy to lift when full. Reliable too!

Great. Easy to use. Brown meat in the dish on the stove first then put the dish into the slow cooker with the rest of the ingredients...cooks great
