thank you for your responses - you are right .................. actually my oven gave up the ghost last week - I have to ring and get it repaired - it's under guarantee so its not going to cost me anything - but I just liked the look of the Go Chef and how you can do everything in it !
However, I got my slow cooker out yesterday - it's a 1980's - 90's one ! but it still works ok......................I did lean pork loin chops with loads of veg and it came out beautiful - all syn free I believe...................I would still love the Go chef but like you say it is really a waste of money - I had to buy a new frying pan yesterday at £17 too !
