Courant Slow Cooker

This slow cooker is designed for small-batch cooking, making it ideal for one or two people. It comfortably fits enough for a hearty soup, a small stew, or a side dish, but it is not intended for large family meals or batch cooking for the week.

Yes, the removable ceramic insert is dishwasher safe. You can also easily hand wash it with warm, soapy water if you prefer to save space in your dishwasher.

The programmable settings are designed to manage cooking duration and heat levels rather than a delayed start. You can set the cooking time to ensure your meal is ready when you return, but you should not leave raw ingredients in the pot for extended periods before the cooking cycle begins.

The base of the unit will get warm during operation, but the handles are specifically designed to remain cool. This allows you to safely move or adjust the slow cooker even while it is in use.

No, the 1.5-quart capacity is too small for a whole chicken. This unit is best suited for soups, stews, dips, sauces, or smaller cuts of meat like chicken breasts or pork tenderloin.
