  • 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.

    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    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.

    Here it is: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4264062/c_1/1|category_root|Kitchen+and+laundry|14418476/Trail/searchtext%3ESLOW+COOKER.htm
    Not the cheapest, but it is good.
