What is a slow cooker?

A slow cooker is an easy-to-use kitchen appliance. It helps you reduce time spent preparing food because you can add the ingredients and then leave the cooker to cook for you all day safely.

Using a slow cooker is useful if you want to reduce the time you spend standing and cooking in your kitchen. It easily produces delicious healthy meals with minimal effort. It means you will have a healthy, tasty meal ready each evening with little time spent in the kitchen. Most slow cookers have different settings to suit your dish.

A slow cooker is a useful appliance if you have fatigue, pain, limited standing tolerance, a weak grip, a hand tremor, or if you are one-handed.
