Please help me, Ive read up on slow cookers and everyone has been so helpful here. Ive narrowed it down to three, please help me choose.

Please vote and tell me which one I should buy.



1 - Breville 4.5 Litre Stainless Steel 1 Pot Cooker £21.99 from Argos and I have a £10 gift card to use. Here

2 - Paul Rankin 5.5 litre £19.99 + £4 p&p but I have a 10% discount code. Here

3 - MORPHY RICHARDS 6.5 litre £24.99 + £4 p&p but I have a 10% discount code. Here


I forgot to say I will only be cooking for 2 adults but plan on making bulk amounts to freeze also.

Many thanks

Emma

    I'd go for Morphy Richards. I have two and always excellent customer service if anything goes wrong with them. Also big enough size if you are doing bulk cooking etc for freezer, soups, stews etc.

    I'd go for the biggest one (MR) because you've not had joints of meat - esp leg of lamb - unless it's been slow-cooked. And even this beasty can only just be big enough for a leg of lamb.

    Although I love my MR 6.5 slow cooker I do think that the breville for £11.99 (with the gift card) is a great bargain.
    Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.

    BTW... the reason I have two is because the first one got a bit temperamental. I called MR customer services about it and they sent me a brand new one, so two for the price of one. The other one still works but is a bit touchy, but still goes.
