Is 8 quarts too big for a couple?

It is large for two people, but it works well for batch cooking and freezing portions. Smaller 4- to 6-quart cookers fit tighter kitchens better.

Does it have a timer?

No. It has a Keep Warm setting but no programmable timer or automatic switch from cook to warm.

The base can be used as a griddle, so you can brown food before slow cooking. The ceramic pot itself should not go on the stove.

The glass lid sits on top and does not lock. It is not designed for transporting a full pot.

The slow cooker comes with the cooking pot, glass lid and base. Check the box for a recipe guide.

It holds more food and adds a griddle base and serving pot, but it is bigger and lacks the timers many 6-quart models have.
