I used an older version of Joule Sous Vide. It worked very well. The new version of Joule came with the Turbo function. I've used it a few times. The turbo function has shortened the cooking time from about one hour to 30-40 min, which makes it much more convenient.
This is my second sous vide cooker. I’m very pleased with the appearance and function. Easy to use and stores easily too. I like the magnetic feature. Wish the clip was removable for improved storage.
If you're buying this, you NEED a vacuum sealer to make the most of it. With that said it's very good! It heats up quickly, runs quietly, and alerts you when it's done. it's also super easy to store. I highly recommend it
Followed app directions… bone-in prime rib, fresh, thickness, doneness… when time elapsed I checked internal temp and it was about 10 degrees lower than where it should be.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Seems like a lot of time to cook a steak even using Turbo.....when I can put it on the grill and tastes perfect. I didn't like the look of the steak out of water and still have to grill it or heat up a cast iron skillet to crisp it up. Several love this....again, just wasn't for me. I returned it.

Thank you for your review and your feedback. We do value customers' input. We'll definitely pass along your feedback to the appropriate people, as we are continuously trying to improve our customer's experience.
The product was advertised to reach 208(F) and the one I was given can only reach 197(F). It really is a great product, and I'd give it 5 stars, but they lose one for false advertisement, and one for not functioning as intended.
I would recommend this to a friend!
