I compared in my search multiple models, read many reviews, used my memory, and then I decided consciously for Andrew James. The Crockpot (original brand of USA) was too expensive, and AJ I have found all of the desired functions at an optimal price performance ratio.
This model is currently sold out, but for those who want to buy it in a different size: I advise all daytime workers to digital model. One can also evening purely throw all the ingredients, set the digital switch for late at night, and the meal is ready when you get up in the morning. The extra-euro worth so you can carelessly leave the bed or the house. The Slow Cooker arises after the time entered automatically, cooked in front of him, and adjusts itself to "warm" to when the cooking time has expired.
In addition, the digital model also has the warm function, what the mechanical models do not have. They have instead AUTO - also a good thing, but not my needs.
For quality: it is exactly the quality that I know from the USA here. Optimal! The cover may not close rest - is a property that is being cooked. The lid closes right and it escapes no heat. From "cheap goods" can be no question here.
Google and some (esp. US) Food Blogs provide endless recipes (simply "slow cook" or "crockpot" as a search term Enter) for this wonderful method of preparation. Soups, broths and funds, sauces, stews, roasts, whole poultry or even parts by, potato and rice dishes, and much more. can hereby be conjured. By long already cooking the ingredients with the different flavors and herbs are pulled through a dream. My only regret is that I did not discover the slow cooker much earlier. Full marks!
