Great Slow Cooker
My mother loves her slow cooker and when her 20 year old one was broken we had to replace it. Off to the Good Guy’s Hectorville and they have an identical Russell Hobbs unit with the same simple controls , easy to use for an elderly lady to cook her favourite foods. Mum loves corn beef and her casseroles, the RH Slow Cooker can do them with ease. Lift out ceramic bowl with a clear lid plus simple to use basic manual control button. Russell Hobbs has numerous sizes but the 3.5lt is ideal for two people. Great slow cooker for Mum.

Slow cooker
Very happy with my slow cooker. Just the right size for the two of us. Will be taking it the motor home when we travel. Very pleased I could use my conserve points to buy it too. Thanks the Good Guys. Service was excellent as usual.

Great size slow cooker
This is a great size slow cooker for two people but big enough to cook enough for two or three meals. Easy to handle while washing up.

Great for smaller families
I chose this slow cooker for its size and excellent price. I gave away my last cooker to a family of 6 as it was so big. This 3.5L is a great size for a family of 4, or even 2 if you want to pre-prepare for those nights you just don't want to cook. Easy to use, set and forget, and very easy to clean.

Compact champion.
I like it's compact size, but it still fills hungry tummies. It's lightweight, easy to clean and store. A great addition to our kitchen.

Q: Is 3.5L enough for a family of four?
A: Yes, for many four-person meals. Russell Hobbs 4443BS has a 3.5L bowl, so it suits soups, curries and casseroles or a smaller roast, but it is not the right pick for big batches, large joints, or entertaining.
Q: Can this slow cooker brown meat before slow cooking?
A: No. Russell Hobbs 4443BS is a slow cooker with a removable ceramic bowl and manual heat settings, not a multi-cooker with a browning or saute function. If a recipe starts with searing, that step needs to be done separately.
Q: Does the auto setting work like a programmable timer?
A: No. The auto option is one of the three heat settings, not a programmable countdown timer. Russell Hobbs 4443BS suits set-and-cook use, but it does not let you schedule a start time or choose an exact finish time.
Q: Will it fit a large roast or only smaller cuts?
A: It is better for smaller cuts. The 3.5L capacity suits smaller roasts, casseroles and soups without taking much bench space, but a large roast or extra-big batch can be a tight fit and cook less evenly if the bowl is crowded.
Q: Is this Russell Hobbs model only for slow cooking?
A: Yes. Russell Hobbs 4443BS is designed for classic slow cooking only, with manual high, low and auto settings. It does not add pressure cooking, air frying, steaming or other multi-function modes, so it suits buyers who want simple operation.
