Q: How can you switch it to warm? Lets say I set it to high 4 hrs. After the cooking it goes to warm, I then need an additional 2 hrs so set it back to 4 hrs but want it to go to warm after 2.

submitted by Steven - 6 months ago
  • A: Yes, you can. The Select button cycles through 4hr, 6hr, 8hr, 10hr, Warm.

    submitted byanon - 6 months ago
  • A: Hello Steven! Thank you for your question regarding your Crock-Pot 6qt Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cooker. After the cooking cycle ends, the unit automatically switches to Warm mode. If you want to extend cooking time after it enters Warm, you can simply reset the cook time by selecting your desired heat setting and duration. Once the extended cooking time ends, it will return to Warm automatically. Tips that may help you: 1. Plan additional cooking time in increments if you want to avoid overcooking. 2. Make sure the lid is properly sealed to maintain consistent heat during the extended cooking period. Please don’t hesitate to contact us through the official website’s Contact Us form, or by phone or chat, Monday to Friday, 9 AM – 5 PM ET. Thank you, Crock-Pot Consumer Care Team

Q: Can this be set to warm without using one of the auto time settings? Example: I cook a meal in it, unplug and transport to another location, turn back on to keep food warm. Can I just turn it back on to warm setting only?

submitted by amoose - 6 months ago
  • A: Yes, you can set it to Warm only without a timer.

    submitted byanon - 6 months ago
  • A: Hello ! Thank you for reaching out to us ! The Warm setting will turn on automatically after cooking and cannot be selected separately.

Q: The cover comes with a hole in it just like the model that comes with a thermometer probe. This one does not come with the thermometer. So how can it keep temp with a hole in the lid?

submitted by Simons Mom - 1 year ago
  • A: The hole is to vent steam. It doesn’t affect the cooking temperature.

    submitted byBBB - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello Thank you for reaching out to us. The hole in the lid is not for the probe as Crock-Pot 6qt Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cooker Ceramic Lambrusco Red does not come with the probe. The hole in the lid is in order to avoid pressure build up. If you have any more questions or concerns, please reach out to us directly via our official CrockPot "Contact Us" website or through LiveChat. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.

Q: Since the lid has a small hole on it, won't that create leakage when transporting to another location?

submitted by Pam C - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello Pam, Thank you for your question about the Crock-Pot 6qt Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cook. The lid’s small vent hole is designed to allow steam to escape during cooking and help maintain consistent temperatures, which is important for slow cooking. When transporting the slow cooker, the lid should remain securely in place, and the locking handles help keep it stable; however, it’s possible that a small amount of liquid could escape if the cooker is tipped or carried on uneven surfaces. We recommend keeping the cooker upright and using a towel or protective surface just in case, and many users find this helps ensure safe and mess-free transport to another location. If you have any more questions or feedback, please reach out to us via our "Contact Us" form on our official website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5/8pm Eastern Time. Best regards, —CrockPot Consumer Care

Q: What is the cord length? If it is too short, could I buy a longer cord online?

submitted by Pam C - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us. For most Crockpot slow cookers, including the CPSCVO60LL-MR-122 slow cooker, the power cord length is typically around 24 to 36 inches long (2 to 3 feet). Please note that it is not possible to purchase the power cord separately. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Crockpot® Consumer Care

Q: My crockpot will no longer heat up. When I first plug it in the light blinks. I set it to High this morning and after 4 hours it was still cold. Any suggestions?

submitted by - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello Amanda, Thank you for letting us know about this issue with your Crock-Pot® Programmable Design Series 6-Quart Cook & Carry Slow Cooker. If the light blinks briefly when plugged in and the unit isn’t heating on High after several hours, this may indicate a power or internal control issue. We recommend first trying a different outlet, ensuring the stoneware is properly seated, and resetting the unit by unplugging it for a few minutes before trying again. If it still remains cold, our Consumer Care team would be glad to help troubleshoot further and review your options, please reach out to us via our "Contact Us" form on our official website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5/8pm Eastern Time. Have a great day, —CrockPot Consumer Care

Q: WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM FAHRENHEIT TEMPERATURE THIS ITEM REACHES?

submitted by Questioner By Default - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us. On the Crock-Pot 6qt Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cooker, both high and low stabilize at the same temperature (209°F); it is just a matter of how long it takes to reach the simmer point. On high, it takes approximately 3-4 hours, whereas, on low, it takes approximately 7-8 hours to reach the simmer point. Once food reaches the simmer point, total cook time is dependent on the cut and weight of meat to reach the point of maximum flavor and texture potential. Most dishes can be prepared on either high or low. This is uniform across all of our current models. In the warm setting, your slow cooker will be between 165-175°F. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Crockpot® Consumer Care

    Cheap product

    Damaged upon opening. It also feels very cheap compared to my other Crock-pot. The metal lining of the base was dented in somehow, but due to the cheap material I was able to press it back down.

    The crockpot itself is great. The lid and the locking component not so much. It doesn't fit well and the plastic parts have broken simply when trying to lock it in place to store it.
    1 reply from CrockPot Support Team team - 1 month ago
    Hello Michelle! Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m truly sorry to hear that you’ve had trouble with the lid and locking components — especially if the plastic parts broke while trying to secure it. I completely understand how frustrating that must be, particularly when the slow cooker itself is performing well. With your Crock-Pot Cook & Carry unit, the locking system is designed to hold the lid securely during transport, but it should not require excessive force. If the lid does not seem to fit properly, we recommend ensuring it is fully centered on the stoneware before engaging the latches, locking the clips one at a time (alternating sides), and avoiding forcing them if you feel unusual resistance. Since you’ve mentioned that parts have broken, we would truly like the opportunity to review this for you. Please contact us directly through our official website, and our team will be happy to assist you further. Our hours are Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM Eastern Time. Thanks! Crock-Pot Consumer Care Team

    Gets really really hot on the outside. Like I mean to hot to even touch like it’s gonna melt. Fire hazard.
    1 reply from CrockPot Support Team team - 2 months ago
    Hello Becca! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Crock‑Pot® 6qt Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cooker in Lambrusco Red. Your safety is our top priority, and I’m truly sorry to hear that the outside of the unit is getting extremely hot — it should never feel like it’s going to melt, and I understand why this feels like a fire hazard. Here are a few quick tips that may help identify what’s happening: 1. Ensure the stoneware is fully seated inside the heating base. If it’s slightly off‑center, heat can concentrate on one side. 2. Place the unit on a flat, heat‑safe surface with plenty of ventilation around it. Restricted airflow can cause the exterior to overheat. 3. Avoid placing it near walls, appliances, or under cabinets, as this can trap heat and make the outside feel hotter than normal. 4. Try a short water test — fill the stoneware halfway with water and run it on Low for 1–2 hours to check if the heating element is cycling correctly. If the exterior is still getting extremely hot after trying these steps, please stop using the unit immediately and contact us directly through our official website so our team can help you further. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9 am -5 pm Eastern Time. Your safety matters, and we want to make sure you have a unit you can use with confidence. Thank you, and stay safe! Crock‑Pot Consumer Care Team

    Too hot

    Gets way too hot. Boiling even when set to low and scorch marks on the sides because it’s too hot.

    Good Product

    Like the look of this (I got the Lambrusco color). The size is perfect for family gatherings or a dish for just the two of us. Works great. I was concerned about instability with the three feet vs. four, but it hasn’t been an issue.

    Hello Joleen! Thank you so much for sharing this with us, and no worries at all — color names can definitely be tricky. We’re really sorry the Crock‑Pot 6qt Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cooker in Lambrusco Red wasn’t the shade you expected. Lambrusco is more of a deep, wine‑inspired red rather than a bright “red red,” so it’s completely understandable that it caught you off guard. If you decide the color isn’t quite right for your kitchen, we’re happy to help you explore options or guide you through the next steps. And if you keep it, we hope it brings you many great meals once you start using it. Should you need product support or have additional concerns, don’t hesitate to contact our team via our official support page or LiveChat. We’re available Monday–Friday, 9 AM – 5 PM ET. Have a great day! Crock-Pot Consumer Care Team

    Perfect for busy families.

    This crockpot is my new favorite kitchen helper. Being 6 quarts , it is roomy enough to make a meal for my family of six. The programmable feature is wonderful for setting it to be done when I get home from work. It has a locking lid and thermal carrying case for traveling without worrying about spills in the car . The case also keeps the temperature steady while not plugged in. It’s easy to clean and looks nice too! I highly recommend this product.

    Locking lid broke. "Cooks while the Cooks away!"

    I bought this a couple of months ago so I'd have a nice looking Crock-Pot for Thanksgiving. I do enjoy the pre-programmed 4 or 6 hour High, and the 8 or 10 hour Low settings. After the programmed time, it stays on Warm until you turn it off. The Warm setting is very hot. I liked the lid too but literally the first time I washed it, the locking pin came out and will not stay in. I need a replacement. Not sure if this is covered by the 1 year warranty but I'm hoping it is since it's a manufacturing defect. It is a good size for my family of 8 with 6 growing kids. The controls are easy to use.

    Disappointing

    This was very disappointing. I’ve never had a crockpot get so hot on the exterior like this. I thought it was because I latched it the first time and read the latched should only be used when moving the unit so I tried without the latched and it can still burn you if you touch the exterior while it’s cooking. It also seems to have too much heat in general as everything is overcooked and it doesn’t automatically move to warm so it just keeps cooking.
    1 reply from CrockPot Support Team team - 3 months ago
    Hello, Thank you for your review. We’d like to clarify and provide helpful guidance. Yes, it is normal for the exterior of a Crock-Pot slow cooker to become hot during use, especially on the High setting. Because of this, we advise exercising caution while the unit is operating. For your safety, we recommend: 1. Avoid touching the exterior surfaces while cooking 2. Always use oven mitts when handling or adjusting the unit 3. Keep the slow cooker out of reach of children and pets 4. Place the unit on a heat-resistant, stable surface with adequate clearance The latch should only be used for transporting the unit and should not be engaged during cooking, as you correctly noted. We appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns, and we encourage careful handling during use. If you ever feel the heat is excessive or unsafe, please discontinue use and contact our customer care team via official CrockPot website. Thank you, CrockPot Consumer Care

    No instruction manual

    My problem is that the Crock-Pot didn't come with a user manual. The Crock-Pot site didn't offer anything for the serial number that I entered. I believe in using anything that I purchase as instructed via the user manual.

    Ok

    It works as you would expect for slow cooking but once the food is ready, if you want to figure out a set up that keeps him warm it is hard. The min temperature it is not enough (the food seems room temperature). It is weird to be used, especially if you plan to cook the food and leave it there for when you need it.

    Decent Budget Slow Cooker, Some Disappointments

    While it functions as intended, it wasn’t quite what I expected. I bought this with the intention to have the clasp top for transporting. For a $54 slow cooker, I suppose the materials make sense—but I was still disappointed. The exterior is entirely plastic, including the handles, the top handle, and even the display screen. The lid clasps are a combination of plastic and metal, which feels less sturdy than I anticipated. I was hoping for something that felt more solid and durable overall from CrockPot. If you want a high quality crockpot with all the whistle and bells, I will recommend a Ninja slow cooker. Another downside is that the interior ceramic pot is not secured inside the base. When stirring food, the ceramic insert shifts and moves around, which feels awkward and a bit unstable—especially when the pot is full or hot. That said, it does what it’s supposed to do. The 6-quart size is great, the programmable settings are easy to use, and the ceramic insert and lid being dishwasher-safe is convenient. If you’re looking for a basic, affordable slow cooker, this will get the job done. Overall, not really what I expected—but for the price, it’s probably exactly what I should have expected.

    Hello Jessica! Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that the Crock‑Pot® 6‑Quart Cook & Carry Programmable Slow Cooker – Lambrusco Red performed as expected in terms of size, ease of use, and convenience. At the same time, we’re sorry to hear that the overall build and materials didn’t meet your expectations. We understand how disappointing it can be when a product feels less sturdy or durable than anticipated — especially when you were hoping for a more solid design for transporting meals with the clasped lid. Your comments about the plastic exterior, mixed‑material lid clasps, and the ceramic insert shifting during stirring are incredibly helpful, and we appreciate you taking the time to explain what didn’t feel right for you. While this model is designed to be a lightweight, affordable option, we recognize that material feel and stability are just as important as functionality. Feedback like yours helps us better understand where improvements can be made, and we’ll be sure to share your experience with our product team. If you need any further assistance or would like help exploring other models that may better fit what you’re looking for, don’t hesitate to contact our team via our official support page or LiveChat.
