AllMusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine says, "The Fogertys don't tinker too much with the arrangements of any of the songs here, but the recordings do have a casual, relaxed feel that separates them from their original recordings or any live versions the rocker has released over the years." He then states, "This is a warm, low-key affair, a record about family bonds and togetherness that gets by on its gentle, endearing vibes."^[8] Henry Yates of Classic Rock Magazine gave Fogerty's Factory three out of five stars, stating, "This factory runs on goodwill. In less cataclysmic times the exercise might be mawkish, and while a cover of Lean On Me is well-meant it feels a little like eating too much cake icing."^[9]
