Not as good as the Lunch Crock
on November 1, 2023
Posted by: Lunch Crock is Better
If you had the Lunch Crock, then you'd know how bad the CrockPot Go is and wouldn't know what you're missing.
I wish they made a larger version of the Lunch Crock instead.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Besides the increased capacity, this was a downgrade from the round Lunch Crock.

I love it! Gets your food just hot enough without cooking it. My only critique would be to request Crockpot offer accessories. Carriers, containers, and additional pans would be amazing!
I also wish I would have read the reviews here first. I had the lunch crock for 17 years, yes it lasted that long! The only reason I had to get a new one was because my cord dry rotted. I bought this design because I thought it would be easier to take other things besides soups and pastas. I am disappointed in the heating. Like others have stated, the bottom gets super hot but the top gets a tiny bit warm, sometimes still on the cold side depending on what you pack. I would recommend buying the lunch crock instead of this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am so happy with this purchase. It took some getting used to because you need to learn how to use the lid. The lid allows for air to trap in the stainless steel container which makes the food not dry out and cook evenly. I use this daily every weekday at work and it makes meal prepping easy. I have lost 15 lbs just by not ordering out. The container is also very easy to clean and lightweight to carry.
I've had several lunches in this and it has been very convenient and heats my food very well. I plug it in 2 hours before lunch and my food is as hot as if I were pulling it out of the over or crockpot. I've had several different types of food inside of this and have not had one issue with uneven heating or not heating enough. I recommend it.
If you haven't used the smaller Lunch Crock, then you probably wouldn't know that the CrockpotGo has a worse heating design than the Lunch Crock.
The Lunch Crock heats more evenly from the bottom and sides while the CrockPotGo only heats from the bottom. Plus the bottom needs to be at a higher temperature to heat the food which causes the food at the bottom to get dry/burnt unless you have very moist food or don't leave the food inside for too long. The Lunch Crock doesn't have this issue even if the food's been inside all day long.
The CrockPotGo is no better than the other cheaper electric lunchboxes out there.
I went back to my Lunch Crock. I hope they make a larger version of it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
