I live alone. No cooker in bedsit. I want a slow cooker. Dont need a large one. Any recommendations?

Cheap but decent.

They are very cheap to run?
 
I'd recommend getting as big a one as you can fit. Leftovers for the win. Why goto all that effort for 2 meals when you could get 5-6 portions to put in your freezer ?

No fridge or freezer in bedsit
 
Do you ever make your way into Bristol? I have a small ~2L Crock Pot slow cooker that you can have. I haven't used it since I got my Instant Pot ages ago.
 
This sounds so grim. Why are you living like this?
Surely a flatshare is in budget?

Needs must i am afraid. Done a couple of house shares too. They were also grim.

Looking to buy so hoping to find somewhere very very soon!
 
We have 2, and you get different results with the two

One of the above linked ones, which I do things that I prefer to cook a fair bit on the hob first, so browning meat and onions etc
And a crockpot one with a earthenware down instead (you can use this on the hob on low/medium heat) which seems to produce better results for things like joints of meat

The crockpot one they have in tesco right now for about £25 I noticed the other day

They don't cost peanuts to run, but use probably less than a KWh for a long cook. Well worth it.
