If I ever use it I’ll never do it again so what’s the point. Well I have to say I was wrong on all accounts. The setup is so easy. If you can download an app on your phone you’re through the hardest part. I’ve used it 4 times in the past 2 weeks and everything has come out juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. I made chicken breasts, tenderloin steak, and burgers twice. Once you prep the food you put it in a ziplock bag (or vacuum sealed bag) and submerge it in the water once it reaches target temp. Generally I’ve been choosing meals that take 2 hrs to cook but the only active cooking is the prep. Once it is done I will put it on a pan to sear it but that only takes 2 minutes. Highly recommend it for anybody that is looking to elevate their cooking. Time commitment is minimal but you should prep your meals about 2hrs prior to when you want to eat.

Get lost, Anova! No chance I’ll EVER buy one of your products again. Just opened the app to start a cook and I’m welcomed by a lovely little message that Anova is ARBITRARILY REMOVING THE ABILITY TO CONNECT MY COOKER TO THE APP?! Why? There is no reason for this other than greed. You just lost a fan of your brand. Bad look, Anova. Seriously. I don’t buy things that are meant to be thrown away before their useful life is over. I’ve ditched SONOS and LL Bean for doing exactly what you’re doing now. THERE IS NO GOOD REASON TO NOT ALLOW THE CURRENT APP TO CONTINUE WORKING AS IT IS - ASIDE FROM A MONEY GRAB. I will DEFINITELY be looking at another brand of cooker when this one fails, but I’ll have to see how long I’m willing to deal without having the app to set things up or reference recipes. So sick of companies deciding when I’m done being able to use a perfectly functional item through planned obsolescence. We’re already dealing with far too much waste in our society and companies that do this sort of thing ought to be ashamed of causing further damage. BUYER BEWARE: ANOVA IS NOT A TRUSTWORTHY BRAND AND WILL DECIDE FOR YOU WHEN YOU’RE DONE USING A PERFECTLY GOOD PRODUCT JUST BECAUSE THEY WANT TO MAKE AN EXTRA DOLLAR OFF OF YOU. THERE’S PLENTY OF OTHER FISH IN THE SOUS VIDE SEA.

However, Anova also wants to encourage users to enter and share their own recipes with other users. Here, the app is frustrating beyond belief. On the mobile app, you can enter and edit steps but you can’t edit make a private recipe public. Also, you can reorder steps — but only if there aren’t so many of them that they fill one screen on your device. Because if they do, you can’t actually scroll to it to select and reorder it. On the other hand, you CAN change a private recipe to public by logging in to Anova online, where you can also enter and edit steps. But at the online site you CAN’T reorder steps. Since any time you want to enter a new step they get entered as the last step, not being able to do this easily is a major oversight. All in all, creating and managing recipes is an exercise in frustration. It’s a shame because a bit of attention to the UI could fix these issues and encourage a more social and useful platform. And as far as I can see, there’s no way to make a recipe “public” if it starts out “private”. Who would want to share a recipe before you test it yourself? Stupid.

Very many of the user-contributed recipes are poorly and unclear written as to technique. Those need to be much better-curated. Some examples of issues Anova leaves unanswered: Is there a limit to the amount of product you can cook at one time? When cooking animal flesh, can you put more than one cut (e.g., one pork chop or steak) into a single bag? If so, would you “stack” them one on top of another, or lay them side by side? Do you put the product in the water before it has come to temperature, or after? Many recipes give very large ranges for cooking times, what gives? Do those relate to the thickness of the cut? When the product is done cooking, can/should it be removed immediately, or can it be left in the (gradually cooling) water to keep warm until ready to sear/serve? Is it dangerous if a small amount of air is left in the bag (because it leaves product out of contact with hot water), or is it ok so long as the bag is fully submerged? It is very unfortunate Anova leaves so many basic questions unanswered. Sous vide is a unique technique; I am a skillful home chef but the skills used in other cooking techniques do not directly transfer to sous vide cooking.

I have a perfectly functioning unit that no longer works via wifi or app due to Anova choosing to render it obsolete. They’ve “graciously” offered me a loyalty discount to upgrade along with a free subscription (since they’ve now chosen to charge a monthly fee to use their app). I bought their newer unit (Pro) and was immediately greeted with a disclaimer that they reserve the right to revoke my free subscription in the future as they roll out more “stuff” with their app. To add insult to injury, I’ve been having connectivity issues right out of the gate and can’t get my app and new unit paired. A quick search finds it to be a common problem, with some users accepting that they’ll use the unit without the app and or connectivity. Not me. That’s the whole reason I took it on the chin and gave in to the forced upgrade. Their “manual” is a joke, the customer support has been worthless with a constant reiteration of the same obvious steps that aren’t working. I’m so disappointed with Anova. After 10 years and various sous vides and vacuum sealers bought, it’s time to move on to another brand. As others have stated… BUYER BEWARE.

A nice perk is ...I received the Anova 1000 WiFi enabled precision cooker for a gift. Great addition to meal prep/planning. If you have a big pot, this will work. A nice perk is it can be used on any table or counter near a plug, so it frees up the oven/stove top/grill. You can easily repeat your dish, once you choose a temp/time you like. It is almost bullet proof on creating consistent dishes. The Anova food app is a great place to start as a baseline for time/temp for whatever. I have used Ziplock Gallon Freezer bags with no issue. Clean up is none existent (pour out the water and wipe down pot/cooker unit). This approach will free you up completely. Impossible to over cook. One nice perk- we have cooked more fish as this approach removes the odor that may accompany fish prep. Starting to use the WiFi and app as I now have a few favorite time/temps for target protein. I may get a second one to do vegetables (different temp/time requirements). Btw- the food is amazing! One tip, you can use the water in the pot to help remove the air from the bag (you tube video, so easy)😃

Apparently, most of the negative reviews are based on issues with connectivity. But in consideration of actual cooking info and recipes, this app is the best by far and I’ve tried many Sous Vide apps. I am not new to Sous Vide cooking but I found so much information in this app. The “Guide” section of the app is detailed yet easy to read. Within the “Guide” section is an “About” tab for each category of food (beef, poultry, veggies, etc.). This section is loaded with more information that I have seen anywhere else. It includes tips and techniques for each category of food. Easy to read and very useful info that will improve your Sous Vide results - especially for the Sous Vide novice. So according to some of the reviews, there are issues with connecting your hardware for timing and controlling purposes. But for Sous Vide cooking content, this app stands way above the others. FIVE STARS FOR THAT!

I can’t begin to describe what a game changer sous vide cooking is. If I had it to do over though, I’d buy a base model with no connectivity because the app is a joke. First, the WiFi settings are ridiculous. After trying to connect unsuccessfully many times, I went to the web. I found out that neither your WiFi network name nor your password can be over 15 characters long. Their solution, I kid you not, is to change your network name and password to be shorter (less secure) than it is now. Also, there are many times where the app continues to tell me I need to get within range of the cooker so it can connect. It’ll stick like this with the app 3 inched away from the cooker. Better to just use the manual controls. Beyond that, I don’t understand how hackish their developers must be to not be able to get a simple timer right. It seemed to work on my first two cooks. After that, the timer now starts during the warm up phase. So you end up having to manually time everything anyway. And you have to listen for the cooker to hit the right temperature. The convenience of “set it and forget it” is totally missed with the poor app functionality.

We do chicken breasts/tenderloins several times a week in it. The filet was arguably the most perfectly cooked filet I’ve ever had. Scallops reliably come out perfect every time and the delicate flavor and texture is preserved. White fish remains flavorful, moist and flaky. While there’s some wide variation in times and temps with the various recipes for the same protein, we haven’t been let down yet. The timing doesn’t need to be perfect and you can let things go longer if you can’t get to it. Just set it and forget it. We abandoned the vacuum bag sealer (which failed after about 5 uses) and just use ziploc bags and submerge in water before sealing. Our Anova is the best and most used cooking device in our kitchen - we use it at least 5-6 times a week!

Initially I had a really hard time connecting the Precision Cooker to my wi-fi, but its been stable for a while now. Sous vide is a great way to cook and I’m glad I made the investment. There is a Guide section in the app which appears to be from Anova. The instructions are clear, concise and well formatted. The user contributed recipes are what you might expect, but useful as a reference. I don’t use the app to control my Precision Cooker much, but the alerts are helpful. The only thing I don’t like is if you use the “Cook This Guide” feature, it starts the timer as soon as it’s up to temperature, whether you put your food in or not. I just wait to start the timer manually once I put the food in. But all in all, it’s a very useful app for this appliance.
