I found a difference in the old and new ones. As someone already mentioned, the newer ones do cook faster so you could end up with a chewy meat, rather than tender. I prefer the old one (the crock is removable). A quick way to cook a roast (which I am doing tomorrow) is to place the roast in the crock pot with a can of cream of mushroom soup and 1 enveolpe of dry onion soup mix. This needs to be cooked on low with the lid on.

[quote=iluvsewing68]I bought a new crock pot a couple of years ago and finally gave it away. For a recipe that said 6 to 8 hours, it was done in 3. It actually boiled the food, even on low. I hated it and have now gone back to my 20+ year old one, and am loving it.[/quot
My old one bit the dust and like you said the slow cooker gets WAY to hot
