- Is a 6-quart slow cooker big enough for a family?
- Yes. Six quarts holds roughly six to seven servings, enough for a family of four with leftovers, or a whole chicken.
- How is this different from a basic dial slow cooker?
- It adds a programmable timer and automatic keep-warm, so you can set a cook time and walk away. Dial models only offer low, high and warm.
- Can I use metal utensils in the nonstick pot?
- Avoid them. Use wood, silicone or plastic to keep the coating from scratching.
- Does the pot go in the dishwasher?
- The removable pot is usually dishwasher-safe, but hand washing is gentler on the nonstick coating.
- Can I brown meat in the pot on the stove?
- No. The removable pot is for the slow cooker base only, not the stovetop or oven unless the maker says otherwise.
- What comes in the box?
- The slow cooker base, the removable nonstick pot and a lid. Check the listing for a lid strap or serving spoon.
