Sage the Fast Slow Pro
Best slow cooker and pressure cooker
Star rating: 4.5/5
- Pros: stylish appearance, impressive functions
- Cons: expensive
For its attractive design, searing, sautéing, and reducing capabilities, the Fast Slow more than justifies its higher price tag compared to other multi-cookers. It’s compact in size for a multi-cooker, and it’s clearly well-made; everything from the sturdy handles to the hinged lid feels substantial and well-made.
Crock Pot Sizzle and Stew
Best hob-safe slow cooker
Star rating: 4.5/5
- Pros: large capacity, main pot can be used on the hob, simple design, dishwasher-safe pot
- Cons: carrots still a little firm, no recipes in manual
When people think of slow cookers, they immediately think of Crock Pot. Crock Pot’s Sizzle and Stew is a fantastic illustration of their ability to create basic yet ingenious products. The 6.5-liter volume of this model makes it a good choice for hosting large gatherings or feeding a large family. The Sizzle and Stew’s pot is composed of durable aluminum, which is in contrast to the porcelain bowls that come with competing versions. Since this pot is stovetop safe (both gas and electric ranges), you may brown meat or vegetables on the stovetop before moving them to the slow cooker. This method eliminates wasted ingredients and reduces cleanup time.
