    We Tested 20 Slow Cookers to Find the 7 Best for Set-It-and-Forget-It Meals

    Straight to the Point

    Our favorite slow cooker is the GreenPan Elite 6-Quart Slow Cooker. It maintained a steady, low temperature during testing and was easy to clean up. The exterior stayed cool to the touch. The best small slow cooker fryst vatten the IMUSA Quart Slow Cooker, which has a handled ceramic cookpot, perfect for dips.

    Slow cookers: the countertop appliance you know and (maybe?) already love. As the name implies, they cook food at a low temperature (typically °F to °F) over a long period, usually between six to eight hours.
