[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is a little hard to push the buttons and to make it change to where you want it to cook. But, it did cook my chicken and potatoes to perfection. The potatoes were not mushy like they usually are. I haven't tried the Sous Vide part yet, I don't really understand that too much. I will soon and see how I like that.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this product! I had never cooked sous vide before and the day I received the product, I decided to really test it by making rice pudding sous vide. I have always had a problem making rice pudding even when I stand over it for hours. It cooked the rice perfectly and I did not have to stand over it and watch it. I just prepared it in mason jars and left it in your wonderful machine. I judge products, when purchasing, by the warranty and this product has a 5 year warranty. Excellent. What I love most is that you do not need potholders for the lid with it's lovely large window and you can set it and leave it to cook your meal. I tried the slow cooker today, and it cooked my pork roast to perfection. This product is great for the working person. You can put your meal in it, set it, go to work, and come home to a wonderfully cooked meal. It shuts off automatically. And, it's easy to clean. Just the right size. The user's manual is user friendly. Very easy to operate. Thank you.

Efficient machine. Sous Vide and Slow Cooker.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine allows two forms of cooking. Good old slow cooking and the new Sous Vide form of cooking which is now getting to be so popular. Just completed some baby back ribs sous vide. Cooked for twelve hours and finished on a very hot grill, slathered with BBQ sauce and slightly charred. They were probably some of the best I've had. The unit held the temperature very well. I checked with my Therma pen several times. The lid completely stopped all evaporation, so you can cook long periods of time even overnight and not worry about refilling water bath. This cooker is fairly new to me and I'm really looking forward to slow cooking and especially the sous vide cooking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll start by saying that I was extremely skeptical that this product would work. Oh boy was I surprised the Sous Vide works exactly like the ones that they use in upscale restaurants. No more over cooking steaks or fish. And as a bonus it's a slow cooker too, I really couldn't be happier. This is two great products in one, trust me you will not be disappointed!

A Good 'Summer' Kitchen Addition

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Living in the deep south, by evening no one wants to get near the stove. This is a good way to provide hot meals without heating up the whole house.

Awesome Product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this just in time to make my famous chili for our family reunion. I cooked the ground beef using the slow cooker feature. Then added the rest of my ingredients and left it slow cook till it was done. This product works awesome as a slow cooker and will be my new go to crock pot for feeding my large family for Sunday Dinners. Don't know if I will use it as a Sous Vide...don't really care for cooking that way.

Wonderful machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a bit apprehensive to use this new machine, so I started to cook boneless rib eye steaks. I love steak but hate grilling so when I go out to eat, I always order steak. But not anymore because having this sous vide machine I could eat steak everyday because it was so easy to use and the steaks came out so tender. I don't even have to watch the steaks the machine will turn off by itself. Next, I will attempt to cook salmon.

What is a Sous Vide?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So excited to receive my Sous Vide. I had read about the benefits of this healthy cooking style...a simple, no fail method to perfect meats. The first dish we prepared was Ahi Tuna. It came out very juicy & flavorful, compared to cooking over the grill. The only downside is the requirement that all meats must be vacuum sealed. I understand that's the definition of Sous Vide, but it requires plastic bags, and preferably a vacuum sealer (or additional work). Regardless, it was delicious! We haven't used it as a slow cooker, yet, but that's a great additional feature. Very functional, whatever your preference! AND...it was a breeze to clean, due to removable chamber.
