Best for small kitchens
Crock-Pot digital 3.5-litre Crock-Pot is a name synonymous with slow cookers, and this 3.5-litre gadget is ideal for those with limited kitchen space. It has a simple interface and sturdy design, and the hinged lid allowed us to check in on our dish without leaving spatters on the worktop. The beef stew we made in it had a thick, rich sauce, and while the veg was a bit soft, the meat was impressively tender. Available from Amazon (£44.99)
