The 6-litre capacity slow cooker begins from 50 pounds onwards. Owing to its capacity, these slow cookers are heavier. Placing the slow cooker completely withdrawn to the worktop of the kitchen is important to avert any accidents. Having a nice recipe book enhances the joy of cooking using the slow cooker, as it is capable of churning out variety of dishes besides the stew and soups. Some models have dual-pot system, enabling the user to cook two items simultaneously.
