Ok, so a few friends have them and love them, others i know are not fans. I am undecided but really think it may be a good buy. However i have a few reservations/questions which i am hoping can be answered for.

1. do you feel safe leaving them on all day? or can they be started at about 3pm after school and ready for dinner. I am al ittle unsure about leaving it on if i am out all day, maybe not just to go to school to do pick up but def all day.

2. Do you actually use yours, or is it just another appliance that rarely gets used? Hang on silly ? on my behalf, there is a whole thread or more about them on here .

3. DH reckons we are never organised enough to know what we are having for dinner till dinner! I guess that just comes down to planning....Hmmm??????

4. My eldest child(7) is very fussy, getting him to eat stroganoff with the sauce had only been accomplished in the last 6 months, so i am concerned i would be making two meals if i used it.

Amyway, i just wanted to get some perspective before i decided. Any feedback would be great. Thanks
