What can I cook in a 4-quart oval slow cooker?

It holds about 4 quarts, enough for a whole chicken, a 3-pound roast, chili or soup for four to six people. The oval shape fits long cuts and whole birds better than a round pot.

Does it have a timer or programmable settings?

No. It has Low, High and Warm settings only, so you switch it on and off yourself. Use a separate kitchen timer if you need to stop cooking at a set time.

Is the stoneware insert removable?

Yes. The stoneware insert lifts out of the metal housing for serving and washing. It is heavy when full, so let it cool before cleaning.

Can I use the insert in the oven?

Stoneware inserts of this type are often oven-safe, but check the manufacturer's instructions for your unit before using it in the oven or under a broiler.

How does it compare with a round slow cooker?

The oval shape fits roasts and whole chickens that a round pot of the same capacity cannot. A round cooker is usually easier to store and stir.

Does the lid lock for travel?

No. The lid sits on top without a locking strap, so it is not designed for carrying food to a potluck.

Our take on the Oval Slow Cooker 4-quart

A 4-quart oval slow cooker with a metal housing, a stoneware insert and a glass lid, plus Low, High and Warm settings. The oval shape fits a whole chicken or a roast and takes up less counter space than a round cooker of the same capacity. The 4-quart size suits couples and small families, or anyone who wants leftovers without a huge pot. It is a basic, no-frills cooker: no timer, no probe and no programmable display, so it competes on simplicity rather than features.
