Whole base spun and broke it

Posted by: Boby1
I was really happy with my lunch crock until it broke. I had spaghetti inside and the dried sauce made the lid pretty tight to screw off. This is one of the new ones with the screw on lids, not the old ones with the press fit lid. The lid was so tight that it started turning the entire heating element base inside the outer shell. Now the power indicator doesnt light up and the bottom heating element doesnt get hot. If it continues to spin, itll probably break the remaining connections too and it just wont heat at all. Im exchanging it and hoping this is a one time thing, otherwise thats a definite design flaw considering theres an anti rotation pin on the heating base to prevent the food insert from spinning. Doesnt do much if the whole thing including the pin spins instead! Pretty disappointed because its great when working correctly.

I've had mine for 10+ years now, this thing is amazing! I work outside all winter long and this little crockpot has made my winters on the tower not only bearable but enjoyable. Nothing is better than hot lunch on a cold day!
After owning for one week, the Crock-Pot Lunch Crock Food Warmer will not heat up. I am disappointed with my purchase.

As celiac who use shared cooking devices at work this is perfect for have a good lunch with zero chance of cross contamination! And I love the portion size as well. Just right for me. Best lunch item I’ve had ever! I only wished it had a cord to also use in the car as well as I do sometimes drive all day for work. Super easy to clean too.
I got this for Christmas, I got to use it 3 times before the lid got so stuck, it ripped all the wiring apart under the warming section, breaking the wires
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello! The Crock-Pot® Lunch Crock® Food Warmer is primarily designed for reheating and keeping your food warm. It’s perfect for heating up leftovers, soups, stews, and other pre-cooked meals. However, it’s not intended for cooking raw food from scratch, as it doesn’t reach the high temperatures needed for cooking.
If you’re looking for a convenient way to enjoy warm meals at work or on the go, this is a great option! Let me know if you have any other questions. https://www.crock-pot.com/support/contact-us
