Who cares if it's Cambro brand or not? We don't say hey I cut my finger can you grab be a faux band-aid? So we should either call everything cambro, or come up with a better term.

The Cam GoBox® offers optimal versatility and features a professional grade construction made from expanded polypropylene (EPP), a closed-cell bead foam that provides thermal insulation with a high level of durability. This high-tech material is extremely lightweight while maintaining optimal impact and chemical resistance, and it is also eco-friendly.

Additionally, mix and match a 6" deep and 2 1/2" deep pan, two 4" deep pans, or up to four 2 1/2" pans.

rampking my cambro looks identical to that one. Same handles, clips, racking system, everything. Must be 1 main source that makes it and allows other to out their brand name on it. Anyhow, it works great!
Ah HA! This illustrates the difference between needing to transport and cater food, and wrapping and setting up for hours. I don't use a cooler to set up a brisket or roast. I use a table top roaster on warm, with a towel between the meat and lid. Removable inner pan makes it easier to use, for me, than a cooler - and it will run in my truck.
I had been looking at insulated food carriers for some time. I had always used an ice chest. I had the opportunity to use Cambros in Redding, CA working as a volunteer for BBQ relief. It was so effective and convenient, I was convinced that I had to have one. I have ordered from Webstrauntstore before and read the reviews of the CaterGator. The biggest complaint among reviewer about the one you are looking at is that the gasket can fail or come off. Most reviewers however, were delighted with their purchase.
My issue with the proposed purchase: The first thing I ordered from Webstrauntstore was a deli slicer. The shipping cost was not prohibitive however, the CaterGator was going to be very expensive to ship. I was able to get a new Cambro 300 series through Amazon from another vendor for about $30 more than the list price of the CaterGator. When the shipping cost was factored in, the Cambro was actually cheaper than the CaterGator.. I love what I got. I am sure I would have been just as happy with the CaterGator, though.
It is noted that the Cambro model I have does not have as many shelves. For me that is nice because if I need more room in the future I can use the ice chest.
Good point! I did not even notice what the shipping was on those. BTW as a side note I’m from Anderson, CA originally but live in Texas now. Did you work the BBQ relief on the recent fires?
rampking - I did work BBQ relief in Redding for the Carr fire. It was a great experience! Whatever model you get you will be happy. The prices are volatile though, on Amazon. Any of them will fluctuate by $30-40 from the same vendor from day to day. Wait for the "sale" price.
Mine are Carlisle brand but identical to Cambro. In fact when some one asks me about them I don't call them Carlisle's I call them Cambro's or food keepers. I have kept pork butts in mine for 14 hours and they were still at 136 going by the Thermapen. I got lucky and ran across them on CL for about a third of the price.
There is a reason they are so much cheaper
If you are planning limited use you may be fine
When we roll our four black cambros into a cater gig....
well it just works for us
