I've had the Joule Turbo Sous Vide for 3 weeks and it's already my favorite way to cook. Everything comes out tender and juicy and perfectly done. The app is fantastic and so intuitive to use - I've used a few of the turbo and regular recipes to make eggs, steak, pork, chicken and I even started a cook while away from my house - all amazing.
This is our first experience with a sous vide. The Breville joule turbo sous vide has been so awesome for our family and dinner time cooking. The app is so easy to use— just follow the prompts and the sous vide does all of the work and cooks for you. Choose the Turbo option on some recipes if you want or not, it is up to you. Unlike other reviews, I find all basic foods and proteins like chicken, pork, beef and more all have turbo options. The “prime time” capability allows the food to stay perfect past cooking time if you aren’t home yet. Recipes I have tried and love: Filet Mignon done medium rare (Devine!), Ribs done both Turbo and a 24 hour recipe I have (we finish on the grill—fall off the bone, best ribs we’ve ever cooked), basic chicken breasts and pork chops (so easy for weeknight dinners). There are veggie recipes and more I haven’t tried yet. I find myself wondering how did I ever cook before with out the joule turbo sous vide?
Have been using the joule probe for beef, venison and salmon. I adhere to the instructions and get wonderful results as advertised. I use a quick sear in the end for 30 seconds before serving. I have checked the temperatures with a thermometer and they are spot on. We also love using it, because in the end there are virtually no cooking smells, important on small houses or condos.
We've had this for 8 months and it started getting touchy about 4 months after purchase. It doesn't stay connected to wifi even when we've done the necessary steps to ensure wifi connectivity. Bummer because otherwise it's been a good product. I would not recommend this Joule Turbo Sous Vide
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used a Joule Sous Vide for eight years. I love this till as it great for making perfect steaks, pork chops, etc. I recently purchased the Turbo Sous Vide. It is definitely faster and provides more precise cook times based on additional questions asked about size, weight, Great improvements on an already good tool.
