Customer Ratings & Reviews

This prepares steaks better than any other way. My wife likes hers cooked medium-well and I like medium rare, but honestly with this I can tolerate medium steaks as a compromise because they are so much more juicy! And I can sear hers a little longer and she is happy. With our crazy schedules we never know when to have dinner ready, with this we get it cooked and hold it ready until it's time and only need to do a minute sear and to the table.

This item was purchased as a gift, so we haven't gotten any feedback yet. However, the experience at BB was really good, the sales person was knowledgeable about the product, and reviews from other than BB helped us decide which unit to buy. I'm even looking for one for myself.

I have used the Anova precision cooker on beef, chicken, and fish, with outstanding results every time. It’s the only way to get a steak exactly how you want—tender and juicy.

Impressive and makes an amateur cook better. Pretty easy and makes it difficult to ruin anything.

Easy to Use and true makes a difference in cooking.. I would highly recommend this product

Was always interested in sous-viding, just never got into it until i saw this on a good sale, and had a few $5 gift cards, so thought what the heck. Now, it is not the fastest way to cook, but when its done, wow, the food is fantastic. Not over cooked, perfect temperature meat, crazy juicy and little effort put forth. The app is super easy to use. Really glad I purchased as it adds an extra tool to great cooking. Buy it!

I love my Anova immersion cooker so much that I don't know how I lived without it. I use it to cook many things--steak, pork chops, seafood, eggs, vegetables--and it couldn't be easier to cook them to perfection. The Anova is super easy to use and if you're anything like me, you'll be shocked at how fast it heats to temperature. I just use ziploc bags for now but am actively seeking a vacuum sealer to make it even easier!

This was my first precision cooker and I must say that I am VERY impressed with how easy it is to cook with it. I would spend some time researching what kind of container will best fit your needs and how you plan to use the Anova (I opted for a plastic container I picked up from a restaurant supply). The app works perfectly with all of their recipes and the step by step guides make cooking the perfect steak fool proof!

We love this. Works so well with steak. Tried with salmon and was also delicious.

I purchased the Anova to help automate my cooking responsibilites after reading several reviews of the device. Basically, you cook in a bag at precise temperatures with timing precision using Bluetooth on your mobile phone. I never expected the food to be so delicious! Everything we've cooked (fish, beef, etc) was superb. The recipes listed online are excellent. Can't recommend highly enough!

I don't know how to cook. I usually overcook my foods because I'm afraid to have to recook undercooked foods. With the help of the Anova machine and app, they give you easy to follow recipes and then just let the machine do all the cooking. Really hard to mess up a good steak with one of these. It does require more water than a Joule but it's much quieter in my opinion.

everything I've cooked with it came out great. recipes on line make it easy to use.

My wife had me purchase this item for her for Christmas. I thought it would be a waste of money but stand corrected and could not have been more wrong. The meals we have prepared with the Anova have been the easiest ever with less cleanup than a conventional stove top prep. The meats always turn out perfect and more flavorful than other preps and it is very easy to use.

Extremely easy to use and cooked the meat perfectly! I highly recommend...

You'll never under or over cook a steak again. It's great for other matters as well. Input negative is it's a little larger than expected.

I borrowed one of these, exact same model from a friend and decided I had to have one. My first purchase d Nieves's from best buy, the units control dial was broken right out of the box. I returned it and got another. All is good now. Product heats quickly and is easy to operate, well built. Bluetooth works though I don't see much point in using the bt.

Love this thing! We mostly use it for beef, chicken, and pork. PERFECTLY done steaks and juicy chicken/pork! We portion and freeze our meets from warehouse stores with spices and then just throw in/set it before work and come home to perfectly cooked food! You can't overcook it!

I love the Anova Sous Vide cooker. On my first attempt at cooking steak, I was able to get a perfect medium rare. My wife commented that it was the best steak I ever cooked. Chicken and pork chops came out tender and juicy without worry of contamination. The ap makes finding recipes and setting the machine a breeze. I look forward to trying new recipes on it.

I have used this several times and it works great except for one little thing. The app preheats the Anova but starts the cooking countdown before it gets up to temperature. The app does go into "keeping warm" mode after the cooking times out, but you don't get an accurate cooking time unless you turn it off and start over when it hits the target temperature. It's no big deal for medium-rare steak but could pose a risk for food that needs to be cooked thoroughly.

This sous vide will cook anything to total perfection. Everyone who I've gotten this (and I've bought like, 4 of them), has gushed to me about how amazing it is and how the food it makes it absolute perfection. It does take some time, and a bit of knowhow, but otherwise this is an amazing product for not that much money.
