Calphalon’s slow cooker is a one-pot wonder, and it’s 60% off on Amazon

TL;DR: Get the Calphalon Digital Sauté Slow Cooker from Amazon for only $59.99. It’s normally $149.99, so you’ll save $90.

No kitchen should be without a slow cooker; they’re versatile, energy-efficient workhorses that whip up flavorful meals with minimal work on your part, and keep dishes warm without overcooking them. What’s not to love?

… Well, we can think of one thing: Since they cook slower and at lower temperatures, they’re not great for sautéing veggies or browning meats. That means if you want a nice sear on your pot roast before you pop it into your crock, you’ve got to bust out another pan and prep it separately. So much for a one-pot meal.

That’s the case with most slow cookers, but not Calphalon’s Digital Sauté model. Currently on sale on Amazon, it’s got a built-in cooking pot that can be removed and placed on any cooktop — gas, electric, or induction — to brown ingredients before they’re slow cooked. (You can also pop it in the oven if something needs baking.) You’ll wind up with a perfectly cooked meal that requires minimal cleanup — which is a good thing, because you’ll be in a food coma after all that hearty goodness. 

Boasting a 5.3-quart capacity, the Calphalon Digital Sauté Slow Cooker features a durable ceramic cooking surface that provides 20% more even heat than the average nonstick surface. Its temperature is controlled via the built-in LCD digital display, which includes two heat settings and an auto keep-warm mode. Dinner at your house, then?

Calphalon’s slow cooker typically retails for $149.99, but you can order it from Amazon right now for just $59.99 — a 60% savings. (It’s in stock August 16, so lock in this price by ordering now.)
