Could I seal the crack?

The pot setting is for keeping the cooked food warm. Crock pots are not automatic food cookers User interaction is needed to turn it on or off, much like a stove. In other words, human interaction is required. I suggest using a timer or alarm.

you might want to see at a second hand store they might have one oe e-mail the company maybe they can help.

Check with your local hardware store, maybe they have some sort of scellent or glue for ceramic, just make sure it can stand high temperatures, if the crack is in the inside of the pot make also sure the product won't contaminate the food with nasty chemicals. Sorry that is the only thing I can think of besides buying a new crock...


good luck!

turn crock pot a little more down wile cooking and add a little more water to what your cooking with a little oil to the water.

If you are putting the food inside the ceramic crock and not over filling it, then you are doing nothing wrong and have a cracked crock.
If you are overfilling it and putting the lid on so it bubbles over when the temperature gets up, then you need to add less food or cook on a lower temperature.

I don't know what I would do without a crock pot; filling it with good things in the morning and coming home to a completed meal at the end of the day is a lifesaver.
Bon apetite!

Good luck!

No, it's not really safe (the food may not reach a high enough temp.)

Also, if you did try, it would take hours to get hot enough &the food wouldn't be as appealing--dried out etc.

Try reheating in your microwave instead.

the lid on our crock pot broke. We will sell you the bottom if you're interested.

This unit does not seem to be cracked.

Most of the reviews for this product state that the lid is a bad fit. It is as though they had leftover lids from another model and just used them in this one. A replacement lid will be the same unless you have one custom made...but for that price you'd just get a new crock pot. You will lose a lot of moisture and some foods will be a little dried out after slow cooking all day and losing steam. You can either cover the cracks as best you can when you set it to cook, or return it and buy a better model. You'll find this problem on Rival's 6 quart crock pot as well. Read the reviews before you make your next purchase.
