BEFORE YOU BUY...<br />
Useful and economical, the humble slow cooker makes it a cinch to prepare healthy meals from scratch. Simply load<br />
up your ingredients, choose your setting and leave the clever device to do it all for you. Before you buy, consider how<br />
many mouths you need to feed and if your favourite meals are a good fit for your prospective model’s shape and size.<br />
Batch cookers and families seeking hearty meals, such as whole cooked chicken, should look for larger, oval-shaped<br />
designs, for instance. If you won’t be there to switch it on and off, opt for one with a digital timer that can be preprogrammed.<br />
Lastly, if you’re not a fan of washing up, make sure the lid and cooking pot is dishwasher safe.<br />
