...They happened to have a Morphy Richards Slow Cooker CE on sale. I have had this one before and knew that it was an excellent slow cooker. We couldn't find one of the large ones with the rest of the small size slow cookers so we went to the lady in front and asked if there were anymore available. The price is normally £34.95 but they were on sale for £24.95. "We have one in the front on display," she told us. We asked where it was and wouldn't you ...
...of the window with everything on display. She offered to get it for us and pulled out everything (very carefully) just to give us the Slow Cooker. I was really glad because I didn't want to have to do anything desperate like throw everything out of the way so I could get the last one. You never know what these desperate shoppers can be like when they really want something! LOL On to some of the finer points - 1. Comes with a 2 year guarantee. 2. ... Read review

Advantages: Ideal for cooking stews, casseroles, joints of meat
Disadvantages: Need to brown things before slow cooking

...last Christmas I received a Morphy Richards Slow Cooker as a present from my mother in law, but it retails at £34.95 in Argos and can be purchased online or in the shop. The slow cooker is very large, with a 6.5 litre capacity and is silver in colour and oval in shape. When I opened the box I thought that the size was a little large for a family of four, and had I purchased one myself I would have probably selected a smaller model. However, on reading ...
...smaller cooker is more acceptable, Morphy Richards do a 4.5 litre version which can be purchased for between £19 and £25 from various outlets. There are three settings on the slow cooker: high, medium and low, which can be selected by using the black dial on the front of the appliance which is simply clicked into position. I normally start my meat on the medium setting and turn down to low as the day goes on as I find this gives the most flavoursome ... Read review

...to Tescos and bought a Morphy Richards slow cooker for the excellent price of £19.99! It is a 3.5 litre cooker with a maximum working capacity of 2.5 litres (enough for a family of 3/4). It is oval in shape and is chrome/black in colour - very elegant looking indeed. It has 3 settings, low, medium and high.

...has cooked and it is such a welcoming smell. Slow cooking is the best way to prepare a nutritious hot meal with the minimum of preparation.

You must remember to completely thaw all frozen foods. Root vegetables (eg. carrots) should be cut into small pieces ... Read review

Advantages: Large Volume, 3 Temp Settings, Nice Aesthetics and Design
Disadvantages: A few stipulations regarding foods that can be cooked and how to use the cooker, although these are general to Slow Cookers and not this model alone

...This cooker comprises of a nice stainless steel outer shell, a big / heavy, sturdy ceramic inner pot and a toughened glass lid. Would tie in nicely if you have stainless steel / chrome appliances. The removable ceramic pot has a capacity to 6.5ltr to the brim, with a recommended working capacity of 4.5ltr, plenty big enough to feed 4-6 people. The pot is dishwasher safe and can easily be transported to the table for serving. The cooker is of an oval shape, rather than round, which allows you to cook joints of meat The cooker has handles which don't conduct heat so the unit can be moved (for whatever reason) during cooking without burning yourself. The lid is made from toughened glass, so you can monitor the food during cooking. The reason I bought a slow cooker was so I could make some tasty meals, with little... Read review

Advantages: Lovely food available as you walk in the door
Disadvantages: Must be organised!

...I get this feeling that slow cookers are not the "in" appliance at the moment, so I'm going to try and change all that with this review. I decided I wanted a slow cooker when my new oven failed to stay on long enough (electric - turned it self off - don't ask!!) to do my long slow Lancashire Hotpot recipe, so a quick nip onto the old internet and the Morphy Richards Digital Slow cooker model no. 48730 is what I bought. The appliance is made up of brushed finish stainless steel and it has a ceramic hotpot inner which is removable so if you like you can take your cooked meal to the table to serve. The pot is dishwasher safe and is a HUGE 6 ½ litre capacity, guaranteed to serve the largest of families. The digital control panel allows cooking times to range from around 4 to 8 hours depending upon the recipe you wish to cook... Read review

Advantages: Meals cook themselves.
Disadvantages: Non I am aware.

...I purchased the Morphy Richards (model number 48710) slow cooker after comparing it with the other slow cookers that are available. It is oval and not round ,I preferred it to the round ones as I thought it easier to carry and not as tall when it is the worktop. The stainless steel outer gets hot when in use so it needs to be kept out of the reach of children and the contents could get as hot as the contents of a saucepan so use it with care when young children are in the kitchen area. The reasons I picked this model are; a two year guarantee (which I thought good on a small appliance). It looks good the design is stylish and fits in with my kitchen as it is stainless steel and black with a glass lid. It's size is 3.5 litres (2.5 litres working capacity) ideal for two-three people a family of four would definitely need the next size... Read review
