Yes my Cockpot can be used on the hob, I always start things of that way and then put it in the heated unit. It's got no branding on it other than Crackpot, it's a large oval one that came from Costco if that helps.

Hehehehehe! That gave me a chuckle too!
I have a crockpot as well, it came with a little metal rack thingy to put between the pot and the hob. It works a treat.

I think mine came from Argos, but it was a Christmas pressie so I haven't looked. It was a couple of years ago now though.

Not the cheapest, but it is good.
