Hi just bought a crock pot within 2 hours it's boiling on low. Will this ruin my food?

This isn’t really enough information. What are you cooking? How full is the pot?

Simmering, not boiling.

I had a similar problem with this crockpot when I bought it on Amazon. It was destroying the food because it heating way too hot. I returned it and bought the same one in store (from Target) and that one works as it should.

The only slow cookers I have that can’t boil water are my Dad’s Hamilton Beach 5 qt and the small (official) Crock Pot 10 oz one, and I wish it did. Takes an hour to heat canned soup, and then it’s just a simmer. I want it to be more violent, like the bigger ones. My Rival Crock Pots can be used to make tea easily, especially the 2qt. Even my off-brand 2 and 3-headed cookers boil. You got a good one, though I imagine not everyone wants it to boil, especially on low. Mine only do it on high, but Low will maintain a brisk simmer if it comes down from boiling. From cold to low, it just simmers.

I had this one and just replaced it. It cooks way too quickly even on low

there is zero information about what you are cooking or doing. Just an image of the product on amazon. Please do better next time.

It’s pretty normal for a crockpot to slowly bubble.
If it’s boiling like you hard-boil eggs, it shouldn’t be doing that on low.

try releasing the clamps and letting it simmer without an airtight seal
