The Drew & Cole CleverPot is a versatile, compact electric hot pot designed for individuals, couples, and students seeking a convenient and energy-efficient cooking solution. It excels at preparing a wide range of dishes, from stews and stir-fries to steamed meals, all while using significantly less energy than a traditional hob or oven. While highly practical for smaller households and limited spaces, its 1.2L capacity is best suited for 1-3 people, making it less ideal for larger families.

The Drew & Cole CleverPot is engineered for efficient and versatile cooking. Its 600W high setting rapidly heats up, making it perfect for quick tasks like searing meats, sizzling stir-fries, or boiling pasta in minutes. This setting ensures a swift and even distribution of heat across the pot's surface, preventing cold spots and promoting uniform cooking.
For more delicate dishes, the 300W low setting is ideal for simmering hearty stews, slow-cooking porridge, or gently poaching eggs. This lower setting provides consistent, gentle heat, perfect for dishes that require longer cooking times without scorching.
The bonus steam basket expands its utility, allowing for healthy meal preparation such as steaming vegetables or fish while other ingredients cook below. Imagine preparing a quick weeknight meal with steamed broccoli and chicken stir-fry all in one compact unit.
Its 1.2L capacity is perfectly sized for individual meals, couple's dinners, or for students preparing simple, nutritious dishes. It also serves as an excellent aid for larger gatherings, quickly preparing side dishes like rice or mashed potatoes when your main hob is occupied. The Cook & Look lid lets you monitor your food without lifting the lid, maintaining optimal cooking temperature and preventing heat loss. The Auto Shut-Off feature provides peace of mind, especially when cooking dishes that might absorb liquid quickly, preventing burning and extending the life of the appliance.
