WESTINGHOUSE BLACK STAINLESS 3.5L SLOW COOKER
This beautiful new slow cooker is from Westinghouse Small Appliances
I say beautiful because it is … quite simply … stunning!
A shiny black stainless finish makes it the feature of any kitchen bench when in use.
So shiny in fact, photographing these cookers was quite the challenge 😉
I say these because this beauty comes in two sizes!
Her sister model is HERE … the 6.5L version … the same – just bigger!
You could even purchase the pair and have double the convenience of two meals/two courses at once 🙂
For this review though we are going to concentrate on the smallest of the two
The 3.5L capacity 🙂
This smaller than average size is great for smaller families, side dishes, desserts or smaller meals in general.
An emptier cooker cooks hotter, which isn’t always ideal, so matching the size of the slow cooker to your individual household needs is always the best way to slow cook.
Let’s look at some FEATURES first …
- 3.5L removable ceramic cooking pot to maintain and distribute heat evenly. This pot is for use in the slow cooker unit only, not for stove or oven use. Hand wash with non abrasive clothes/brushes and cleaning agents.
- Stainless steel outer unit with stunning black stainless finish
- Tempered glass lid to allow monitoring of cooking without need to always remove lid
- Oval shape cooking bowl
- Cool touch handles and knobs. Note: only handle actual cooking pot with oven mitts as it does get hot. And always carry a full pot of food by this inner cooking pot, not by the handles on the external slow cooker casing.
- 3 cooking settings HIGH, LOW, WARM
Cooking Settings
- HIGH – High heat for faster cooking times.
- LOW – Lower heat to allow longer cooking, ideal for best results
- WARM – Keep cooked food warm until serving. My personal recommendation is 2hrs max for food/taste quality
Manual dial, so you always know easily at a glance what setting you’ve chosen – no confusion sometimes found with digital control panels
Price:
This unit generally retails for around $49.95
Stockists include:
Harvey Norman, Retravision, Good Guys, Costco, Betta Electrical, Joyce Mayne, Kitchen Warehouse and other appliance stores
Online retailers including Catch of the Day, KOGAN and Appliances Online may also have this item
If your store is out of stock ask them to order it in for you. See full list of stockists here.

Golden syrup dumplings…or salted caramel dumplings 🤔
I’m a chocoholic, the weather is getting cooler…..got to be a chocolate pudding!

Have only ever done on stove top but you need to be at home for this, plus it makes a bit if a mess on the stove top, so would DEARLY love to win your competition. Many thanks for the opportunity.
Courtney- Barossa Valley SA
I would make pea n ham soup and use up last years Christmas ham bone, then apple fudge for dessert.
My name is Bernice from Townsville North Queensland . I already have 3 slow cookers. But I would give this to my daughter as she just burnt her marinated wings in hers and we tried everything to get the stubborn stains off it, sadly nothing worked. Plus I would buy her Oven bags so she can use in her new SC. My granddaughter loves the Marinated Wings from the supermarket.
Amanda Sharp NSW
I would love to win this size slow cooker. My oldest 2 kids have just moved out of home, so it leaves me with myself, my husband and 1 of our children at home, so my big slow cooker is too big for us now. I still use it if everyone is home for tea, but need a smaller one for just the three of us. I don’t know which recipe I’d try first, there are so many great recipes in the Slow Cooker Central books, I’d probably work my way through them 🙂
I want to make chicken carbonara yum and a giant chic chip cookie

I would cook roast beef for the family, (when we’re allowed), because I can never get it as tender, cooking it in the oven.
I like to keep it simple, so pea and ham soup.

Well seeing as though my hubby is the cook in our household, I intend on learning to cook with a slow cooker so if I won I’d love to learn to cook roast pork, roast lamb, roast chicken, spaghetti bog, pumpkin scones, quiche, corned meat, potato bake – and more I’ve been slowly saving your receipes & have to find my 2 slow cooker cookbooks as I bought 2 of yours but Kmart didn’t have any other ones at that time as the other one’s had sold out. Maybe first I’ll try the spag bog oh my gosh this is making me so hungry. So yes I’d love to be able to help my husband out when he works so that he doesn’t have to do his shifts and then come home and cook dinner on those days he works. Plus I’d also like to learn to cook some doggy dishes in this slow cooker for our beautiful doggy babies which I also have been saving receipes from your facebook page that people have been putting up. Plus Dan loves curries so even though I’m not a curry person I’d love to surprise him with something like that. Can’t wait to get cooking (now I’ll have to eat something because I’ve made myself hungry talking about all those meals haha. Thanks so much for listening and doing this competition and sharing your knowledge with the world congrates gain on your latest book. What an achievement. Love & hugs always from our end to yours xoxo
