Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I love the perfect succulent meat and fish cooked to the exact doneness requested. The only drawback is that everyone will need to like his or her meatcooked to the same level.

Hamilton beach 33970 is also a sous vide slow cooker. This is a nice size crock pot that give you the ability to really change up the setting for what you are trying to cook.

Whenever the water reaches the internal temperature that you are using, it beeps letting you know it is ready. It shifts to warm when finished and holds the temperature.

Food saver uses special plastics in their bags to you are not getting any undesirable chemicals in your food. It is non-stick inside for easy removal of the food and easy clean-up.



Cons

Now the programmable clock/temp/mode panel is on the fritz and does not function. It leaves marks too easily. Taking it back and sticking with my instant pot immersion circulator.

Main problem is inaccuracy of the temperature control which is very important in sous vide cooking. When set to 125°f, actual temp is 100°. Temps constantly changing (added hot water-then ice cubes) to correct for temperature fluctuations.

Love using and learning new cooking methods with the sous vide


So either train your family to all like medium rare or stick with the outdoor grill

We had exposure to the much higher price sous vide and we feel it compares very well

    We used it quite a bit for a while but then drifted out of the sous vide thing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Well everyone raved about sous vide and since we needed a new crock pot we tried this one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It didnt look as great as the grilled one to the point where we were convinced it would be the worst tasting


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    We tried less marbling and it tasted like unmarbled steak


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Then i was shopping at my local meijer department store and this particular cooker had been marked down to 49


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So i filled it with water and let it get up to 160f and checked it and it was close enough to make very little difference


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I think you need to think of this as a conventional type of oven and the circulator sous vide machines as a convection type of oven


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I purchased a eye of round roast a very tough piece of meat on sale at 2
