Hi.

Need to buy a new slow cooker - no fancy features. Just low/high/auto.

Any recommendations please?

Morphy Richards has worked for me for some years. It has a metal pot, so it comes down to metal or ceramic.

Another vote for Morphy Richards, as above I have the Sear and Stew one as I like to brown some things off.

DH returned from aldi with one several years ago from the middle aisle! I can check the actual brand tomorrow when back at home, but it just has the option of low, high and warm.

We have a Prestige Slowcooker and which has all these settings. We’ve had it years and never had an issue with it.

TBH as long as the cooker has the settings you need that’s the most important thing. They’re all much of a muchness.

There are fancy ones which have digital controls and some also double as a pressure cooker etc.

Mine has a dial and simply has a heat setting of 1, 2, warm or off. Very easy to use and good capacity.
