The Gift of Time
Spend more time with family & friends, and less time in the kitchen: 8 one-touch, pressure-cooked programmes cook up to 70% faster than the traditional oven or hob. Cook a whole chicken in 30 minutes, then steam your veg in the Crock-Pot Express while your roast is resting: enjoy dinner in under an hour, and you’ve only used one pot.
But that’s not all. So many dishes can be cooked in a fraction of the time of conventional methods: oozy risotto in 8 mins; hearty chilli in 10; sticky ribs in 15
One-Pot Wonderful
If you’re not in a hurry, or you’d prefer your dish to be ready as you walk through the door, then the slow cook option is for you. Prep your dish in the morning and come home to that irresistible home-cooked aroma. Your favourite tasty dishes cooked to perfection while you get on with your day.
A great way of preserving maximum nutrition, use the steam function for delicate fish or vibrant veggies in minutes.
If you prefer to sear meat or sauté veg before slow or pressure cooking, then the adjustable brown/sauté setting does just that. Use it at the end of cooking to thicken up gravy or a casserole.

Perfect for cooking rice and steaming dim sum . Made great chocolate pudding as well as the usual slow cooking and pressure cooking. Found it great on saute to brown, fry and make gravy before cooking. Also keeos food warm until required. Made life a lot easier. P.s. not paid for this review!!
This product was recommended by a friend and I am delighted with it.
The instructions are easy to follow and the end results are delicious.
I did need to buy a recipe book as the one included only has a few recipes.
This is lovely and fairly easy to use but it would be even better if there was an English cook book to accompany it. You only get a small paper recipe book which is ok but not nearly enough to co justice to the cooke
I love it. Wish I had bought it a lot sooner for those late nights returning from work and you don’t fancy whats in the freezer (I batch cook). There’s loads of recipes online and take no effort at all. So easy to clean.
Don’t quite understand why I haven’t acquired this before, it’s brilliant, does some meals so quickly and good flavour.
With a little practice I will hopefully get the beef spot on for my steak pies.
Very versatile and easy to use. Made soup, stews, chilli, roast chicken, and even cheesecake
Absolutely love this crock pot. The best feature is the saut button.The inner pot is so easy to clean. i have used the pressure cooker every day since I brought this. Would highly recommend.
Very pleased with went for the brand & not disappointed. Used daily for vegetables, come out tastier steamed. Great for stews combining the functions. Would recommend.
I am enjoying cooking with my crockpot. The slow cooker options & pressure cooker ( which i have never used before)
They are very useful.
This literally gets used every day. Soups, stews, rice, pulled pork.
Best kitchen buy in years
Still getting used to cooking with this and getting timings right. Very easy to clean.
Easy to use and very versatile which saves time and produces great results!
Great product.
Have to master the rice cooking in this a bit. Not as same as the rice cooker
Delay timer is only 4 hours
Can’t steam while cooking something as there’s no steaming basket. I’d say it’s less economical in that way
Arrived yesturday, used straight away, made. Beef casserole, was delicious, instructions very clear, can’t wait to try other things, well worth the money and arrived on time
Does everything claimed for it! All I really can say about it is that my wife loves it which is good enough for me!
I am not worried about what to cook. i can prepare my meals and set . On arrival wash my hands change my clothes set table to eat. Thanks
We find very useful and use it quite a lot A
Very happy great just thing cooked in half the time and can just leave things to cook
Bought this for a friend, He’s used it several times and loves it. Cuts down on cooking times and easy to use.
Can’t live without this. It is so versatile. Cooks really fast. Easy to clean. Millions of recipes on the Web.
I love this so much- have made everything from stew, to chilli, to spare ribs, and even pulled venison. Very easy to use. Only issue is the lid can be a bit of a faff to clean – you have to just wipe it down and if you’ve been cooking something with a strong smell or flavour, it can linger. But otherwise, it’s fab!
Love my crockpot. I make rice perfect in 12 mins. I love to make pulled pork and orange chicken as well as stew. I made a chocolate cake in it others day. Worth the investment. Making things is quick and easy especially soup and beans.
Having purchased the item it had to be returned due to a fault with the control system. However the replacement works fine and I am finding it a very useful asset in my kitchen.
Use it most days.
Very pleased. Would recommend .
My go to kitchen appliance. I love it and made many dishes. You can cook a chicken of 2kg in 35 minutes. It cuts your cooking time down leaving you free. It also has a slow cooking facility. Would definitely recommend.
Good quality and easy to used. The quality of the crock pot is pretty good highly recommended to my friends and family.
I absolutely love this item , easy to use , set it and walk away also delay start. Cooks perfect rice . The only thing not successful so far is vegetables I like mine lightly cooked but everything else brilliant.
Very straightforward to use, sturdy build, cooks in no time,
hassle free and for reasonable price, so what’s not to iike?
I liked the first one so much that I purchased the second one as well,
so I would be able to cook several meals at the same time.
Highly recommended!
saved my life, less time spent in the kitchen, less items to wash dishes, tasty food.
Quick review of the functions:
– yogurt function works well, same outcome like in yogurt maker
– Slow cooker outcomes are slightly different, I still prefer ceramic pot for slow cooking, somehow taste of the food is different (or maybe this is just perception)
– Pressure cooking works well for beans dishes (it cooks AMAZING DHAL!!), porridge, soups, for meats is ok but I prefer taste of slow cooked ones
– browning function is not in use (seems too much hassle for me)
Overall – great device for the price!!
I don’t have a bad thing to say about this. Very convenient and has cut down my cooking time by half
I hardly cook in anything other than this now. Picked up a second one as a gift.
I am used to work a lot and my wife due to our infant has a small amount of free time… Crock pot was an excellent choice for us… Great food with minimum effort and in 50% of a conventional cooking method….
Love this Crockpot .definitely would recommend.
Slow cooked Meals done in minimal time & doesn’t steam up the kitchen. Extremely easy to clean & excellent quality product.
This is much better than my pressure king I had. Very easy to use and clean. Very quick cooking also. Excellent and worth i
Excellent product for slow and express cooking. I love it and it’s very useful . Would def recommend
Plug it in and away you go, the lid doesn’t sit in the handles like competitors models
I did many research before buying and got it right!
Was choosing between crockpot and instant pot.
Inner- non sticky pot won.
Yes – there is more recepies for instant pot, but they are so easy to adjust to crockpot.
Saves a lot of time and many washing.
I do mostly cook meat, pasta, eggs and corn.
Purchase of the year!!
I use it for everything! Perfect for slow cook and pressure cook. Very easy to clean as well.
I received this product only a few days ago but I already love it. I made mushroom risotto and it was very easy to make, user instructions are clear and the end product was delicious.
I have also a crockpot slow cooker but I am thinking that this will replace it because it has both functions.
It is a bit bulky because of the high pressure lid but found a great spot in my cupboard, so it would fit any standard kitchen.
I see myself using this regularly.
Great piece ok kit, it’s big but replaces separate slow cooker and pressure cooker. Have used many times in both modes.
A superb cooking pot which slow cooks, cooks and steams a myriad of foods. It is great for one-pot cooking of things such as casseroles, stews, risottos and for steaming meat, which is something I use it for quite regularly. It is so versatile that I cannot list everything it will do. I would not like to be without it!
I bought this one as I wanted something similar to my sister, who raves about it. In fact mine is a whole lot better as I can use to slow cook as well as fast cook. Absolutely brilliant. Hers was a pressure king pro and her version didn’t slow cook. Definitely value for money
This has made cooking so quick and easy, and it has really increased my confidence in the kitchen. Highly recommend.
King of cooking. So easy to set up and use. The booklet with cooking recommendations helps to get things like steamed veg right.
Well, let me tell you this, first: this has become an essential in my kitchen! I use it several times a week and so far, it looks like it’s going to last forever! There are so many safety system that they don’t even mention that it’s near impossible to break it. Soon as it heats up too much, it will stop and sound the alert. So no explosion or other unsavoury thing that can come with pressure cooking. The delay button and the keep warm function are fantastic tools for working parents. Pop the ingredients in, put the delay, enter the cooking program, and it will do its magic while you’re away. And when you come home with hungry kids, a hot, freshly cooked meal is waiting for you. Lifesaver doesn’t begin to qualify it!
The other Thing I love about it is that my food will NEVER burn (unless I set myself up for that, I.e: not enough water for rice). I love that I can put let’s say lentils to cook, and not have to worry about it until it’s done. No watching, no stirring, no fiddling with the heat… meanwhile I can bathe the kid, spend quality time with them, read a book, watch an episode of Friends, etc…
when you buy such equipment, one of the worries is that once the novelty effect wears off, it will be just one more big gadget wasting space in your cupboards. Well, fear not! That is not going to happen!
That said, I need to go and make some porridge for the family… in my crockpot. And then I’ll get the soup started for tonight… in my crockpot! And tonight I’ll get some overnight slow cooked rice porridge… IN MY CROCKPOT!!
So, if you haven’t gotten the hint, I love my Crockpot and I think every family in the Kingdom should have one. Heck! Get them on NHS! (This or any other similar item of other brands. I truly believe they all work the same)
Great product!!! I thought it’s going to be another gadget which I won’t, be using but I use it all the time however the surface of a pot inside peeled of a little bit after 2 months of using
Just so handy and functional. Really easy to use . Have loved making stews currys and chillis in it so fa
Very useful tool for any kitchens.
Put all inside the Crock-pot for cooking and you can take care of anything else or even leave home.
Locely and easy to use. I mainly use this as a slow cooker and use the delay timer as I leave quite early for work. If you don’t want your house smelling of food cooking all day this is perfect as it keeps everything inside. My favourite kitchen gadget.
This is a real game changer in the kitchen. I’ve only used the pressure and slow cooker functions both with excellent results. I really like the fact that once it has finished a programme it goes into keep warm mode and I only have to store one device for so many applications.
Great bargain at just over 40. It’s a shame there are not many recipes that come with this but online there are recipes for the instant pot which you can use for the crock pot too
Good for Browning, slow cooking and obviously pressure cooking for speed and flavour. Inner non stick pot easy to clean, but underside of lid retains cooking smells and takes a few goes to erradicate.
Took some working out to use but now used daily, easy to clean, and now, after reading book a couple times easy to use
Chuck the ingredients in and let it do all the work for you
Took me a few attempts to get my head round the functions but now love it! Only tried the rice , saut & pressure cook options so far but I’m using it at least 3 times per week
Super easy to use. Cooks super quickly and saves lots of space. Perfect for meal prepping.
Be sure to read the instructions before use as I nearly burned my hand whilst releasing the steam.
There are lots of recipe ideas online.
So, what’s not to like? This culinary weapon is both tactically and strategically effective in most kitchen operations. What’s more, NO COLLATERAL DAMAGE! Not even HM Special Services, the Navy SEALS or Iran’s Revolutionary Guard can claim that… 🙂
I’m very happy I brought this in the sales I used it to cook 1/2 my meals but I bolt cook in this and set up my own ready meals to take too work as I’m trying to eat healthie
bought as a present daughter rang to say it didnt work told her to check fuse and as picture shows there wasnt one sorted out for her and she says works fine
Pretended it was a present for the wife …. But I use.
It’s much better than gas powered cookers.
I love this crook pot, the fact that can you saut before pressure cooking is amazing as it’s a one pot wonder!
Highly recommend and incredible quality.
I like everything about the crock pot instant cooker, I have never used a pressure cooker before as they always seemed difficult to use but this is so easy and quick it is a pleasure to use
Love my instant pot! Have used it multiple times since I got it. Old slow cooker no longer required and the pressure cooker is great for quick meals. Love that there is a saut/browning function too. Would highly recommend.
The crock-pot is great, I think there are a lot of opinions and reviews on the internet. All of them are true. Additionally, it arrived in perfect form.
I shouldn’t have hesitated as long as I did. This is a magic bit of kit – the ability to set it and ignore it until it beeps – or longer is fab. We’ve had pulled pork, soups, dhals, hard boiled eggs (I know you didn’t think you needed help with these but trust me, you do), lemon curd, yoghurt, beef short ribs, beef daube, broths – I’m a woman possessed. It’s made my Christmas a ****ton easier and frankly, I’m in love. If you’re a busy foodie, this is your best pal.
Brought for Christmas day and in 4 hours we had a lovely tender lamb slow cooked. And we tried some of the recipes in the book provided, have to say it come across a bit complicated but it soon makes sense.
We’ve still a lot to try and workout but it’s a great product and we’ll recommend.
I bought this as I am due my first baby this month and needed to make lots of easy meals for the freezer. It is so easy to use and with so many settings you can really play around and get things just perfect. It cooks amazingly smooth rissotto in 10 minutes and you can even make cakes in it. It is really easy to clean, Brilliant buy.
It is going to save lots of time and allow me to eat better than my working hours have allowed so far.
I checked out the claim of a chicken in 30 minutes with a 1.543 kg bird which came out perfectly cooked with no pink flesh anywhere plus it was nice and juicy. I look forward to trying out other dishes.
Fantastic item.
This has been in daily use for months now.
It heats up quickly. Cooks very well, steams, slow cooks, pressure cooks and regular cooks.
Not a kitchen gadget a proper useful item.
This product is amazing ! Really easy to use and to clean .
This has replaced my steam , pressure , slow cooker and rice cooker .
Awesome produc
At first I thought oh my goodness looks complicated, but once you use it then it’s easy. Fabulous piece of kit and so glad I got it now and while it’s a great price too.
The pressure cooker is all what I thought it would be – breaks meat up into tender morsels.
It saves time as you can do everything in one go – saut veg or meat (gets really hot), add the ingredients and then pressure cook. You can then go leave it to cook which is where the time saving comes in. You can then nip out or do something for the time and it will have it perfectly ready.
The only gripe I have is when a recipe needs a natural release of 10 mins but I’ve cut this down when needed and it’s fine.
The recipe book that comes with it is rather basic and quite disappointing but I found an Instant Pot recipe book that works perfectly. (See my other reviews)
Off to try chicken noodle soup in 20 mins!
Would recommend this product. Saw same model in Lakeland and it was20 pounds more.
Curious of how versatile the Crock-Pot really is, we have made various Indian curries, beans, lentils, soups and have discovered that it’s an absolutely must-have item.
It’s a bit bulky to put away and store, so instead we have cleared room for it on the kitchen counter so it’s conveniently located and in use at least 2-3 times a week. It cuts down cooking time, the braise function turns many recipes into one-pot recipes and cooking on busy days has never been easier. It has a slow cooking function as well so our old slow cooker.
I made broth the other day, filled the pot with left-over bones from the freezer, added water and let it boil under pressure for a couple of hours – without having to check on it even once! The result was fantastic and I was very pleased not having to watch over a big pot on the cooker for 6-8 hours!
I warmly recommend this item and encourage you to experiment with this incredibly versatile pressure cooker that is so much more than just a pressure cooker.
I am a gadget man and I have an array of kitchen tools. The crockpot is perhaps the best yet. Love it for stews and those difficult items – spare ribs and lamb shanks. Great purchase, Simple to use, convenient and time saving. load and forget with the food kept hot until it’s wanted.
Bought as a Christmas present last December-had many months of use and has become an important part of the kitchen.
A good product at a great price.
The manual is helpful with a few recipe options to get you started. (more online) The quality of the product is flawless. It looks great on the counter top as well. An appliance that will be used almost on daily basis – highly recommend it.
*To Note* – The cord is not super long. Make sure you have a place dedicated for it close to an electric outle
Fantastic buy. Made mince and potato curry after saute then pressure cook. Most tastiest dish cooked ever. No smell in kitchen as before. Clear instructions. Only need is to take care to remove seal for first clean and steam release. Have to use finger tips to push prize it out instead of pulling it out. Rest is common sense. Highly recommend it, supplier and Amazon for next day delivery.
Place cooker away from electric plugs. As when you release the steam valve it might cause problems if there is an electric socket above the cooker!!!!!!!!!!!
Easy to clea
I wish I had traded in my stove top Pressure Cooker for one of these years ago. It is very easy and intuitive to use. And the front Control Panel is a doddle. Very pleased with my purchase.
Amazon were also very good with this order.
The first one of these I received had a small but deep scratch in the bottom of the Non Stick Inner Pot. I reported this to Amazon and had a complete replacement cooker in place two days later. No fuss, no hassle, just good old fashioned Customer Service.
This is one of the reasons I do a lot of shopping with Amazon.
Very good quality too.
