This platinum slow cooker is digital, meaning you can set a timer and it'll automatically switch to a 'Keep Warm' setting when it's done. Even more convenient than a manual slow cooker, but still with a great saving. 

Instant Pot savings for even more options

What's the difference between a slow cooker and an instant pot? Well, instant pots (or multi cookers) come with slow cooking functions but also offer more programmable settings, such as rice cooker and pressure cooker options. 

You'll get infinite options with a slow cooker, including the abilities to cook cake and cuts of meat, but instant pots will offer you even more. That means you'll pay a little more, but get even more cooking options. If that's a trade-off you'd like to make, we've got some stunning multi-cooker deals lined up for you.
