NKBIRD WIFI Sous Vide Cooker ISV-100W, 1000 Watts Fast-Heating with Timer | Sous Vide Machine Immersion Circulator with 14 Free Preset Recipes on APP | Thermal Immersion with Calibration Function

I purchased this item last week. Put it to use right away to make yogurt. It performed flawlessly for the first batch, keeping the temperature of the water perfectly steady, and it was whisper quiet. I started a second batch, and everything was fine when I started it. By the next morning the unit was making a whirring sound, like something was rubbing, or a bearing was failing. I contacted customer support via email yesterday. They responded immediately with suggestions for correcting the issue. The suggestions didn't help, and we exchanged a few more messages. By the end of the day, they determined that there was a problem with the unit I received, and sent me a replacement. It arrived today, less than 36 hours after I first contacted customer support. Amazing!

The Cooker arrived in a double pack without any damage and immediately worked nicely for cooking some chicken breasts. Using the Sous Vide method really did result in well cooked but still moist chicken. With just a minute or two on a grill it was perfect. The cooker was easy to operate with just a tiny whir noise as it heated and circulated the water in the container. Setting the time and temp was self evident - although at some point I'm going to need to read the instruction booklet to set the temp readout to Fahrenheit :-)

Overall, I am very satisfied with this product. Used it dozens of times to make the best steak of my life! I compared it against 2 other thermometers and the item is temperature perfect, though it does come with offset calibration if needed. It pairs effortless with the app, and feels sturdy. I had a small issue where it sounded like the motor was making too much noise, but the customer support from inkbird was top notch, and they replaced my item without any issue.

I've used imersion cookers for years. The Inkbird is a great unit with an easy to configure app for your smartphone. I purchased two of these units, one for home and one for cooking at a remote kitchen when traveling. Very accurate and well built. The only fault for me is the clamp. It can't be used on large picnic coolers when cooking larger volumes. I rectified this by making a standoff clamp using PVC pipe. Overall a great unit for any home kitchen. Easy to use, very accurate temperature control, easy to clean. Also a great unit for those who are unsure about Sous Vide cooking, you won't regret it.

It would fine. I don't use it in WiFi or bluetooth mode, its just easier for me to use the simply buttons to set temp and time. I checked the water temp with an instant read thermometer and its always within 1 degree of desired.

This easy to use cooker does an awesome job. So far, I've tried chicken, pork chops, and a steak. They all came out tender and perfectly cooked. In fact, the steak was amazing. All I did was season with salt, pepper, and garlic. Seal it in a vacuum bag. And let it sit in the fridge overnight. When it was time to cook, I used the app and let it do its thing. The steak came out super tender and juicy. A perfect medium steak. After taking it out, I seared it in a hot skillet with butter briefly. Delicious!

Bought this to replace my original Joule. It's bulkier and slower to heat, but it gets the same job done. My original purchase had me less than impressed. It was slow to heat the water. Then it crapped out on a couple of cooks midway. I was pissed. Eventually it died with an error about temp probe. My purchase was only 6 months old. I contacted support through their app and sent them a pic of the error code and proof of purchase. They sent a replacement unit free of charge. No argument or hassle. New unit had me realizing the original unit was probably bad from the start. This one wasn't dreadfully slow to heat the water, which was my original gripe. The app doesn't have as extensive or verbose cook settings as Joule's. However it does let me save custom settings which Joule was lacking. Overall 4 stars for the product, because it works as expected. 5 stars for customer support actually supporting customers.

I know that a 5 star rating is a pretty bold rating. But I didn't find any reason to give this unit a lesser rating. First of all, I love the built in clamp that attaches the unit to your chosen container. It easily attaches to most anything that you choose to cook your food in. The packaging is really nice and professional looking. RIght out of the box, I could already see the quality of the product. I wasn't surprised, since I have other inkbird products that have the same great quality. My first cook was a 48 hours on some beef shortribs. I set the timer and also set up the WIFI on my phone with the suggested app and was able to monitor the unit from upstairs. My unit was set up in my basement. 2 days later when the timer notified me that it was finished, I was pleased to find that the temp was still holding a steady 136 degrees fahrenheit. The meat was done perfectly. I have since cooked some Wild Mallard duck breast, which can be challenging to cook. 3 hrs at 135 degrees produced some of the best wild duck breast that I have ever had. The unit again kept the water at a steady temp and performed flawlessly. The directions are quite easy to follow and the unit is very quiet while running. I have borrowed a friends sous vide cooker before that is a different brand. I like this one better. I would definately recommend this unit to my friends and family. I wish I had taken some pictures. I will for sure next time.

Having recently delved into the world of precision cooking, I decided to take the plunge and purchase the Inkbird Sous Vide ISV-100W. As someone who appreciates perfectly cooked meals, this machine promised to deliver that and more. What I loved: Precision: The Inkbird offered an impressive level of accuracy. Every meal I prepared met my desired temperature and consistency. Whether I was going for a succulent medium-rare steak or soft-poached eggs, the results were predictably perfect. Ease of Use: Its user-friendly interface was a pleasure to navigate. Setting the temperature and time was a breeze, which made the entire cooking process a lot more straightforward than I anticipated. Design: Its sleek and modern design fits in seamlessly with the rest of my kitchen appliances. Not only does it perform well, but it also looks good while doing so. The hiccup: After several months of regular use, I noticed a malfunction with the machine. Initially, it was a setback. The thought of returning gadgets can often be synonymous with hassle, but this is where the story takes a delightful turn. The retailer's customer service was nothing short of exemplary. After explaining the problem, they promptly honored their warranty and replaced the unit with no issues or additional charges. Their proactive approach, combined with a genuine willingness to help, has made me a loyal customer. I'd gladly purchase from them again without a moment's hesitation. In conclusion: While the malfunction was an unfortunate glitch in my Inkbird experience, the stellar customer service provided by the retailer more than made up for it. For anyone considering the Inkbird Sous Vide ISV-100W, I can vouch for its performance, and if you're buying from the retailer I dealt with, rest assured you're in capable hands.

Ok so im on day 1 and so far my opinion is the device seems good, with HORRIBLE documentation. So hopefully this will help some with wifi. In the book and app it doesn't really state the wifi modes available. To switch wifi modes, hold down the wifi button directly on the device for about 5 seconds. When you first touch the button it will beep, dont take your finger off until you see the wifi symbol change,not at the beep, and it wont beep changing modes.this feature is mislabeled as wifi reset in the manual, when it actually changes modes, and reset if it is already connected. Fast flashing is it trying to connect to your routers 2.4g wifi (if you have 2 signals, it will be the slower but more long range connection). Slow flashing is ap mode or access point mode, nice feature i didn't know it had when bought, if it is unable to connect normally or your out and about, this is what you want. This will allow you to connect directly to the device as a wifi signal. Not the best option, but if you dont have access to wifi for some reason this feature should work. Hopefully this helps someone, haven't really used it yet other then to dethaw some frozen chili, which it did well. If this review doesn't change its probably running fine and i forgot i forgot i reviewed it. I will say that after it connected to wifi it seemed to run well, not sure why the hate on the app store to get a 1.5 star review, but hopefully i dont find out.

It heats up surprisinly fast. I'd read some reviews online that it lags behind other brands for length of time to get up to temperature, but it seems speedy to me. When you're cooking something for 4, 10, 20 hours does an extra five minutes to get up to temp really matter that much? Wifi took a bit to set up, it wanted to use the lower speed channel of my router, but it wasn't a big deal. Once I got it set up and synched, it was okay with my phone being on the faster side and the stick being on the slower side. We've had it for not quite a month and have probably used it at least 6 times. It's worked perfectly every time. I've never used a sous vide, and didn't realize you can cook from frozen with it, so it's become much more versatile now that I know it can save me if I forgot to thaw something and figure that out in the morning. I don't expect much since the price was so low, so if I wear it out I know I should buy a more durable one next. But for trying out sous vide cooking, this is perfect. If you're the type to only use these kinds of gadgets a few times a year, I'd recommend this over something pricier.

This has got to be the best used kitchen item. I have never tasted a better way to cook chicken, turkey, ribs, pork roast, pork chops, any cut beef. OMG. Everything is cooked to perfection and the juiciest and tenderest meats. You don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars on a fancy one, they all do the same thing…. But this one links nicely to my phone and don’t regret the purchase. Like every new cooking method it takes a little practice… But Damn !!! You will LOVE the results. I only wish I knew about this years ago.

My spouse loves the wifi connection to control this. Even without, we have used it for steak and chicken breasts. It maintains a constant temperature and is well made and easy to use. We are extremely pleased the results have been fabulous. Perfect sous vide meat grilled to perfection.
