[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The initial idea of sous vide was intimidating. If you’re some who likes flavorful food or enjoy food prep for several days, then this slow cooker sous vide is perfect. I liked that this slow cooker was an all in one package. I used the souls vide packets to place my chicken and seasoning over night. After pre heating the cooker I was slightly confused on how to set the time for actual cooking. Once I tinkered around with the buttons, I figured it out. I followed the recipe book exactly and left my chicken to cook. The slow cooker is great in that you can periodically check your food with out fear like a pressure cooker. The handles easily snap back on both sides for lid removal. The interior pot does get very hot and so do the sides. Place on a surface that can take heat. I loved that it came with a thermometer that ensures you food was cooked at a correct temperature. The recipe book was easy to follow and gave addition tips and dips to make your food taste better. I love the fact that I can set this device and come back to cooked food. The interior pot is spacious, heavy and durable but easy to clean. I feel that the control dial can be a bit more user friendly, when it comes to setting the actual cook time or adding extra cook time. A simple damp wipe on the exterior and I was able to store my product. After following the recipe my food came out great. After cooking as instructed, the chicken was finished up in a skillet. I can’t wait to try out more types of food.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has all the things! Brand name you trust, really nice, high end looking style, and fantastic features. I've made beef stew twice using the crockpot setting and had my first stab at making sous vide steak and it was fantastic! Very clear instructions included with temperature guage (which plugs in to the front panel and is inseted through a hole in the top of the lid), plastic bags, and a recipe book. Everything you need to give sous vide a try. The push button controls on the digital panel are user friendly and simple to understand. There are options for sous vide, slow cooking, and to keep warm, as well as time cook, with a digital timer that I LOVE! No more guesswork on when your meal is ready. This model also has a locking lid making it great for bringing to potlucks! No more risk of spills. I immediately gave my other slow cooker to my niece. This is my new favorite appliance and I can't wait to try more sous vide recipes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very handsome looking slow cooker. Dial/display is very easy to read and understand.
Cook time was accurate as well as temperature (measured with included probe).
Cooker insert is on the heavier side which appears to be of high quality. Stainless steel exterior is very attactive.
Followed a recepie with included cookbook. Easy to follow instructions and the stew turned out perfect.

Big. Gets HOT on the outside

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a few weeks ago and it’s my favorite way of cooking. Steaks last night, for example, were perfect. My dad raved about how tender they were. Pork chops a week ago were meh, cooked great but a poor recipe choice by me.
7 liters is big, there is plenty of space to feed a family.
One recommendation I have is to start with water that’s already above your target temperature. I use an electric kettle but a stove would work too. When you put in food the water temperature will decrease about 10*F. If you wait for it to heat the water, the outside will get hot, very hot. I measured 140*F yesterday and it only had to get from 132F to 140F. I’ve never had a crock pot get so hot; it seems mildly dangerous. Also it takes very long for warm water to get hot—save your time by preheating.

Large, Stylish Crockpot with added Feature

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a frequent user of slow cookers, and this one is large, stylish, and has the extra feature of sous vide. I was unfamiliar with the sous vide style of cooking, but the directions make it very easy to understand. I like the digital settings. The circular knob handle on the lid, and the lid closure clasps are not as strong or high quality look as I would like. Overall, I love this product with an extra feature, to make it an upgrade from my former slow cookers.

The Sous Vide is perfect!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very clear instructions included with temperature gauge (which plugs into the front panel and is inserted through a hole in the top of the lid), plastic bags, and a recipe book. Everything you need to give sous vide a try. The push button controls on the digital panel are user-friendly and simple to understand. There are options for sous vide, slow cooking, and keeping warm, as well as time cook, with a digital timer.
When I opened the box, the look of the cooker was perfect. It is fully functional and I would recommend it for its versatility and ease of use. I am new to sous vide cooking so I wanted to try this function first.
This is the only cooker I have been using these days and have cooked innumerable dishes using all its functionalities. We try to eat healthy in our household and the sous vide along with the temperature probe helps us attain it. Further, the sous vide method of slow cooking allows the food we cook to retain much of its original flavor and texture, which is absolutely essential to make the table attractive.
The sous vide method cooks by heating the food at a constant temperature until it is cooked through. This method of cooking takes longer but is extremely useful for cooking food that might otherwise be very over-done especially when cooking our beef. Since this method of cooking is so different from conventional methods initially I needed.
Using the temperature Probe is so easy with this Slow Cooker. I just set the Set to the desired meat temperature and it gives me the tastiest and juiciest meat as ever and it automatically shifts to keep warm when temperature is reached. I can set the cooking time and program it and it automatically shifts to keep warm when time is up. In addition, I can select high, low, or keep warm without even setting a time. The Sous Vide gently brings foods to a precise temperature in a warm water bath using the probe.
The advanced capabilities of this slow cooker make the investment worthwhile. I am very happy

Terrible sous vide feature

Received this as a gift, was very excited to try the sous vide feature. What a letdown! Attempted to make the maple glazed carrots, preheated for over 1 1/2 hours, (even added more boiling water) and still could never get the water above 152°. Useless. As a regular crock pot works about as well as most of them, just don't get excited about the sous vide.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
