Really delicious cooking method especially for steaks! This tool definitely gets it right. However, I would advise having a very large pot or other food service container which has room, since a standard large pot does not allow for awesome circulation of this tool if you have 2 big steaks clipped to the inside of the pot cooking. I did not experience any issues with the app on my Android device, either.

Set temperature for your steak (rare/med-rare/well done..) hit start.. sear the meat when it’s done and ENJOY~ no cutting in to check if the inside is cooked or not. No over cook and waste meat. Not too much char.
Just a juicy, “done right” steak every time..

Bought this due to other reviews I've read online for this particular model. Wasn't quite sure what to expect even after reading about it from multiple sources.
The first thing I noticed was how big the unit was compared to what is pictured. I don't think the pictures really show you the size of this thing, it is BIG... but it does move quite a bit of water so it just comes with the territory.
I've only made one meal with it, but it was so simple and came out delicious that it will be great to use on occasion. I don't think this is a "use it for every meal" type solution as it takes a lot of time to cook, even though it is very fast preparation wise. One more heads up that I never noticed in other reviews is that it takes a lot of time just to get the water to the right temperature. Took a good 20 minutes just for that in my first use.
But, the chicken came out perfectly cooked... evenly through and through which is the point of this thing. Seems well built and I suspect it will last me quite a while. One other note is that the Wi-Fi version supposedly allows you turn it on from anywhere with your cell phone (so you can start cooking on your way home from work for example). That's the biggest difference I've noticed between the 2 models. But, like I mentioned before, I don't see this as a replacement to cook all meals so not a big issue to me.
All and all, I think you get what you pay for with this thing!

This is a great tool for anyone who really enjoys cooking and mastering taste. Using the sous vide takes longer but the results are incredible. It links to your phone so you don't forget it completely. Good price, good product, a great gift for your favorite chef.

The Anova immersion circulator is easy to use and can truly make anyone (regardless of cooking skill level) have restaurant quality results. Steak, fish, duck, eggs, or veggies the limit is truly your imagination when using the Anova. Would recommend.

The Anova Sous Vide has literally changed our eating habits, buying habits, and social events. We eat a lot healthier now that cooking meat is so convenient and with amazing results... We buy in bulk, separate into meal size zip bags with seasoning and aromatics and through the bags in the freezer for later. Depending on the protein, we simply throw the frozen bag into a big stock pot hours or days before we want to eat it and it cooks perfectly every time with out babysitting. Unlike a slow cooker, things do not over cook and get dry. Some things can get mushy if cooked too long, but the margin of error is hours, not minutes... When ready to eat, we take out the meat, throw it under the broiler for a few minutes to crisp/brown it up and viola, dinner! These things are brilliant and SO simple!

If you still can’t cook with this thing, then you should get out of the kitchen. Easy to follow recipes just make sure you use food safe bags.

Have heard about sous vide cooking for a while, but never tried it. As long as you follow the directions, it works exactly as intended. The most important steps are to seal the product you intend to cook as airtight and air-free as possible and then to have your finishing procedure at the end planned out to maximize flavor and texture with minimal time elasped

Made the best steak ever

I started watching YouTube videos on sous vide cooking and just had to get this when I saw it on sale for black Friday. I made the best steak I have ever eaten, about an hour or 2 depending on how thick. Then throw it in the grill to finish it off!
Sous Vide make cooking super easy. Throw your food in, go do your business, drink a beer, whatever you need to do. When you are ready to eat just fire up the grill or frying pan to give your food a nice sear and enjoy the best food you have ever eaten!
The reason I gave the Anova 4 stars is its the only device I have ever used, so I cant compare to other devices. I think the wifi version might be better since you can remote start it depending G on how well it holds a connection.
This device is easy to use. The app is okay, I normally just use the controls on the unit

as a sous vide cooker, this thing is great. nice circulation, keeps temp. only drawback is it takes some time to heat, so use hot water first to jump start.
i had the bluetooth model before and it was equally good but very limited range; so if you went upstairs, you disconnected. The wifi is much better for keeping connected and alerting when done.

This product is amazing: it's easy to use, delivers great results and is super precise.
My only complaint is that the bluetooth is not working on my unit, I can never find it from my phone. Anyway, I don't need that function. I can't understand why on earth would anyone want to control a kitchen appliance from short distance bluetooth.
