Sous vide cooking is amazing and you should definitely try it if you haven't already, but this review is about the product, not the style of cooking.To sum it up, I have been quite pleased with this device. The display is large and bright, the clip seems to grip fine to the pots I've used it on so far, and it's very easy to use.The ease of use is actually one of the things I'm most happy about because I was going back and forth trying to decide between this and the Gourmia GSV140 and many people commented on how difficult and non-intuitive that one was to use. The Kitchen Gizmo, on the other hand, is so easy to use that I used it the first time without even reading the instructions. Every button flashes in sequence when it's time to press it (setting the timer, pressing the power button to start it, etc.). The only thing I had trouble figuring out is that you have to hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn it off (but unplugging it works too!). Another nice thing (for someone living in the US anyway) is that it defaults to Fahrenheit, but if you want to change it to Celsius it will retain that setting the next time you turn it on, whereas the Gourmia defaults to Celsius and you have to press two buttons simultaneously to change it every time.One thing I was concerned about when deciding between the Gourmia and this one was that this one operates at 800W and the Gourmia operates at 1200W. I was thinking I would have to wait a significant amount of time longer to get the water up to temperature. Let me tell you, that is not something you need to be concerned about. I found that if I simply fill up a pot with hot water from the faucet, the temperature is already so close to where I need it that it only takes literally about 2 minutes to get it up to the right level (138 degrees when cooking a steak, for example). I'm not sure how well it would do if starting with cold water or if using a much larger container, but for my needs (cooking for 2) this works great.There's one minor drawback I've found, which is that it doesn't beep when the water has reached the target temperature. But again, this really isn't much of a problem because it gets to temperature so fast (as long as you start with hot water from the faucet) that it will be ready by the time you finish getting your meat seasoned and vacuum sealed. And it does beep when the timer runs out by the way.

I Absolutely Love this "Simplified Sous Vide Immersion Circulator" from Kitchen Gizmo. Talk about juicy meat, perfectly cooked steak, I don't need to spend tons of money in restaurants for good steak, this thing does it all. This machine is worth every penny to anyone who enjoys cooking. Since purchasing this product, we've used it to prepare dinner several times. It makes preparing meats ahead of time a snap and everything comes out cooked perfectly. Pork chops, which can sometimes end up very dry through normal cooking, With the Sous Vide it ends up juicy and infused with flavor.I found out about this sous vide cooking a few weeks ago, but the price was too high, and now I am glad to have found this product with a reasonable price. It's a great quality product and I like the fact that there is an option for a few colors. I have a feeling I'm going to be using it very often. It's very simple, and easy to use. It comes with a manual that explains everything. It's also very good for people who are constantly traveling.I recommend this product for all foodie lovers!

I loved this sous vide machine so much that I bought a second one after a few months. It's very easy to use, and it maintained proper temperatures for extended periods of time (roast for +36 hours).It has one fatal design flaw, though, which is why I gave it one star. The bottom plastic piece that covers the motor has three lips that lock into place. These small plastic pieces break very easy. After about a year, I noticed they were wearing and breaking off. I've reached out to the company multiple times by phone and email, and haven't received a response. I would be willing to pay for replacement of this part if the company would offer.I've since had to throw one of the machines away, and my second one is on it's last leg. I love the cooking method, though, and am going with another brand next time.

I'm a noob at sous-vide. I really wanted to try it. Boy am I glad I did. And I'm even "glader" I chose this model, because it works like a charm :It comes with an app, so it can be monitored/controlled it from a cell phone. I would say it's easier to control from the app. It's also easy to pair to wifi.It's easy to manipulate, stays in place while working, and stores well.The food (so far I've done chicken and ribs) came out delicious, very tender.Overall, a great purchase.

Arrived on time. I have a Sous Vide so I bought this one for my daughter. She was skeptical at first but after cooking chicken breasts that were moist and delicious she's sold!

Temperature adjust dial was broken turning dial would make the temperature increase/ decrease when turning it the same way and it would jump between high/ low temps impossible to set to the temperature you wanted.
