Anova Culinary Sous Vide Precision Cooker Nano 3.0, 800 watts

Very easy to download and use app. Very simple machine to use and provides excellent results either meats and veggies. If new to sous vide, it will take a little practice to find the right seasoning levels as the food absorbs all the seasoning while in the bag. Sure is nice to always have the perfect temperature for your food.

I bought the mini on sale for $20 just to try my hand at sous viding. And I am totally impressed with this little guy. Setup was a breeze, found a recipe for steak and ran with it. I cooked 2 strip steaks at 129 degrees fahrenheit for an hour the seared them in a cast iron skillet flipping every 30 secs until I was satisfied with the browning, then let them rest for 5 minutes or so, then it was chow time. They came out perfectly, butter soft melt in your mouth , steak house quality. I highly recommend.

Basically fails at every important / crucial features in a sous vide machine No Alerts - not with app nor the machine. Basically need to set own timer if plan to use it. Temperature fluctuation - since the internal thermometer is so slow, the temperature goes up and down a few degrees the entire time Inaccurate internal thermometer - when tested with 2 other digital thermometers, temperature was off by 4 degrees. - tested also another sous vide machine in the same water bath heating to 167F (Inkbird 200, which I recommend) and the Anova mini's app or thermometer was so delayed that it only showed 167 on the app a full minutes after it was hit and confirmed by the Inkbird. It was about 5 degrees behind the whole time heating up. Completely failed when doing low temperature test - it never stopped raising the temperature after hitting the desired temp. The timer just started counting down the moment the temp was hit Sound - quiet if never used another sous vide machine before but compared to others, quite loud. And higher pitched than comfortable. No physical buttons except pairing mode App only gets the time and temperature Bad customer service (emailed Anova with detailed explanation of problems and my troubleshooting and got 2 replies just telling me to try to reinstall the app and to try the app on another phone) I recommend Inkbird 200w if looking for a machine that has physical buttons, app that is useful, and super quiet and under $75 Thank you Amazon for great customer service (unlike Anova) and allowing a return

works great only negative is it is completely controlled by your phone app. It works as it should.

My boyfriend has been passionate about sous vide so I got one for Christmas and he was like a child opening a new game system, he immediately tested it and used it the next day, only problem is I got it for use in a camper that runs on a generator when it's on and I didn't think about it's corded not rechargeable and that there's no Wi-Fi but we did figure out he can use his phone hot spot but these are our problems not the products problems.

Quality packaging and construction. Doing my first 5 drumstick cook right now. Connectivity instructions are not complete. How to use with Bluetooth only, not wifi, would be good. I did connect through my phone, but would like to do Bluetooth off my laptop at home, and leave with my phone. Not sure if that will work. If I leave and it disconnects, does the cook stop? I'll try to update after I find out. The app is working. It won't start the set cook time until it comes up the setting. That's good. Avoiding the subscription links is not clear.

Yea you need the app but not necessarily the paid part of the app. You can set your time and temps with the free version. If I were doing a long cook I would get up off of that $10 so I could keep an eye on it via wifi….which for some reason you need anyway even tho it connects via bluetooth…idk why. But still. This little machine rocks and it’s so quiet! Not like my big (noisy) unit at all and I just love it. Plus now I can just cook a couple of steaks and not have to drag out the big stock pot so I’m doing sous vide more often (yay me!) Also the temps have been spot on according to my thermopop. I’ll probably get up off that $10 sub fee anyway just because I love it like that…. it was a great price and I ordered with rather low expectations and was very pleasantly surprised. One other thing, I read where some have only been able to connect to the unit with a single phone but I was able to control it alternately with my iphone and also my android, (but obviously not at the same time).

I absolutely love using this precision cooker! It can be run directory at the device or remotely using an app. It does a fabulous job getting the water to temperature and holding it there.

Easy to use

Le produit est bien mais n’est pas en 220 V mais en 110 V et 800 watt . Heureusement que j’avais un transformateur disponible !

DO NOT BUY FOR EU COUNTRIES!! So I bought this from Amazon.de thinking I would get a sous vide that works within Germany and EU standard voltage. But this is a US product! Not only does it not work less than a month after purchase but it also burnt my wall plug. I got an electrician and he confirmed that this product should not be used within EU standard voltage and it indeed was the cause for my burnt plug system.

Parfait

Works great, have gifted 2 others as wedding gift and birthday gift.
