Simple, effective, quiet, works like a charm
Pros:- Good price point- Built solid, did not feel flimsy or cheap- User friendly, simple interface. (started cooking with it right away without having to consult the manual)- Simplicity (no need to struggle with wifi or download an app)- Quiet. It had a hum but it was not loud, a couple feet away it was drown out by the vent hood- Kept the water bath the right temperature, I double checked it using a thermometer I know to be accurate- If you have an Instant Pot you can use the cooker and inner pot to do sous vide. It is designed in such a way you can clip it on the lip the lid locks into easily.Cons:- No app ** ( I actually consider this a pro personally, I can set a timer to check on the this thing and not have yet another device connected to my crowded home network)Since I have just starting using this unit no negatives stand out to me as of yet. I have not cooked a large batch, tried it in a large bath and it is still new so cannot judge the wear and tear.I will update this review over time.About me:I work in IT so I am tech savvy, and as such, I prefer things that have a job to do, do it well and don’t over complicate things.

My favorite cooking appliance
During Covid, I became a pressure cooker convert, using my Instant Pot 2-3 times a week to cook eggs, meat, and mostly soups. But having watched a lot of Gordon Ramsey’s shows where chefs compete for a job in his restaurants, I saw several of them using sous vide devices, and having seen some YouTube videos claiming that cheap cuts of beef could be made to taste like expensive ones, I decided to give sous vide a try.Now, a couple months later, I cook more with this sous vide than the Instant Pot, the oven, the stove, the toaster, or even the microwave. This thing is awesome. I can make a chuck roast taste like prime rib. I can cook fish perfectly every time, for the first time ever. I used to be truly awful at cooking fish, overcooking it almost every time, but now the sous vide makes me feel like a genius. My favorite thing is to take a frozen turkey breast, Corned beef, roast, or ribs, throw them in the sous vide, and have them come out better than I’ve ever tasted from oven cooking with a lot less hassle and no thawing. I wish I’d bought one of these 30 years ago. I can’t even believe how much better I can do turkey breast in the sous vide. I was known in my family as one who does a great Thanksgiving dinner, but the sous vide does such a great job with turkey, beef roasts, corned beef, etc. that once I tasted the difference, I told my wife I will never buy sliced sandwich meat from a deli again. There’s no reason to — this is so dang easy to get right, and is so much cheaper! I can do chuck steaks so they taste almost as good as ribeye. And I don’t bother with a special sous vide container — I just use a cooking pot for the bath, checking every four hours to see if I need to add some water.

Good
Noisy, but works well and no vendor lock in like Annova. Simple and easy to use.

Great
Made some incredible steaks and vegetables with it. Amazing results and would expect nothing more.

Gets the job done
This machine is not ultra quiet compared to the last brand I had. However, it gets the job done. It brings the water up to temp fairly quickly and notifies you when it is there. Setting it manually is fairly easy, but if you don’t take the correct steps you have to start over. Also, if you turn your food packet over and the water level drops below minimum, it shuts off and you have to reset it. We’ve only had it a few months so can’t speak to its durability over time.

This is the one you want, and here’s why
I spent a LOT of time researching sous vide cookers before buying this one. There are a ton of choices ranging from cheap and iffy, to overpriced and not worth it. The Instant Pot-company model is the one I chose and I am confident that it was the right decision.Disclosure: I do not do plastic bag-based sous vide cooking. I am fairly sure that in years to come we will realize that cooking things tightly wrapped in plastic is just not healthy. I use this cooker only with glass containers, which I am sure limits the performance a bit. But if you are fine with using non-BPA cooking bags, my findings will be relevant to you too.In my experience the four things you should judge a sous vide cooker for are (1) ease of use, (2) accuracy of temperature and timing settings, (3) noise level, and (4) durability. I haven’t had this cooker long enough to answer #4, but as for #1 the operation of this cooker was so intuitive and easy to figure out I didn’t even have to read the manual. Re: #2: – I have tested the water temperatures with a top-of-the-line Thermapen instant-read thermometer, and at multiple settings the readings were never more than 1 degree off. This is excellent compared to what you seem to get with some of the cheaper competitors – and super-important if for example you want to use your cooker to make yoghurt. Re: #3 – this cooker is really quiet, you hear only a faint whir from across the kitchen, and nothing at all from the next room. (Excessive noise is a big criticism of many competing models.)The one “drawback” of this model is that it’s not designed to be controllable via a smartphone app. But honestly, for me this is a positive. I have enough Bluetooth and Wifi radiation in my life already, and using a phone to control a kitchen applicance that’s ten feet away just seems brainless to me. If you think that one day you will want to adjust your cooking temperature after 2 hours by three degrees – while playing golf – maybe consider another model that costs twice to three times as much (yes Breville, I’m talking about you). But for most actual cooks, basing your sous vide cooker choice on smart-phone compatibility is just idiocy.

Had it for a year
Had mine for a year and it worked great using it weekly or more. -Until I broke it. It got snagged in a drawer and started to separate when I pulled it open. But it worked so well I’m buying another one.I use it mainly for steaks in reusable foodsaver bags and pan sear them after. Its been one of my favorite things to use in the kitchen for the set it and forget nature of it.

Mr G. –
Ridiculous, there is no indication on the specification of this item that it is 120V.This should not be sold on UK amazon without this beaing clearly marked.
Lauliac J. –
Seller sells it in the UK but this is rated for 120V with a US plug. So it’s completely unusable in the UK.

Muy amigable. Facil de usar. Lo único malo es que la pausa no funciona. Le pones pausa y se le borra la programación que ya tenía y la tienes que volver a poner. Pero funciona muy bien.
