My slow cooker on low barely registers on my electricity monitor.

Same here.

We've got this model.

I do a slow cooked chicken noodle soup in there and it's dynamite.

messy kitchen then?
 
Just use a gas oven on low.


Electricity 15p to 16p per KWH

Gas is only 4p to 5p per KWH

Well they suggest you throw pasta at the wall to see if it's cooked...
 
The Tesco Cookworks is great and probably half the price of some named brands. Mrs ABM did a beef stew at weekend. We'd been out all day, picked up a crusty un-sliced loaf and tucked in when we got home, absolutely lovely.
 
Seems to be the general consensus that you don't need to buy an expensive one. The cheaper ones do the same job. Great news

The Argos one looks a real bargain BP
