Sous Vide Machine：Sous Vide Cooker 1100 Watts Immersion Sous Vide Low Temperature Cooker Immersion Circulator for Sous Vide

Send to do everything well... Power button is finicky, 2 sec to start, anything more as it shuts back off. Otherwise works great!

First time using sous vide cooking. This Machine is great and cheap price. Just the Touch button is a little sensitive and complicated to get it on to boil, after temperature is set, But ones it’s ON it works great,

Poor instructions, difficult to set up. Seems to cook alright but I don’t have prior sous vide experience to compare.

It works weel and good value. Well made and works every time

I really enjoy spending time in the kitchen, trying out new recipes and techniques. When I came across the Caukins Sous Vide Circulator Model SV-8002B, I figured this is a cooking technique I must give a try. Sous vide means "under vacuum", and refers to preparing items vacuum-sealed in bags by cooking them in a boiling water bath until they reach a desired temperature. The Caukins 1100-watt sous vide circulator is a welcome addition to my kitchen. It arrived double-boxed and enclosed in styrofoam and plastic. Accompanying the sous vide device are a set of thorough but poorly written instructions, and a handy 40-page recipe book. As a newbie to this method of food prep, I welcome as much information as I can get. The sous vide machine is not a smallfry. Weighing nearly four pounds and standing 13" high, the stainless steel and black machine is nicely made and appears to be of a high quality. It has a heavy-duty three-prong AC cord and the touch controls and LED screen are bright and display prominently on the tilted head of the unit. There is a large black clamp on the rear of the unit just below the power cord for clamping onto the rim of your pot or water bath container. The lower half of the machine is stainless steel and has Min and Max water markings as well as a low water indicator. The top of the unit features an On/Off button, Setting button, + and - settings to adjust water temperature and heating time, and LED screen that shows current and desired water temperature as well as heating time. The sous vide circulator works by heating and circulating water in a container to achieve a very constant temperature, then immersing food in a vacuum-sealed bag until cooked to the desired temperature. It works particularly well for steaks and other meats as well as for vegetables. Lacking a vacuum sealer, you can take ziploc plastic bags, adding the food item and some oil then squeezing as much air out as possible before sealing the bag. The Caukins circulator works quietly and quickly, raising tap water from 67°F to the preset temperature of 140°F in just a couple of minutes. The controls respond promptly and as they should. Rather than providing a warranty, the manufacturer offers "24 months assurance" that the unit will work as it should. Not quite sure what that means. I really like how the Caukins Sous Vide Circulator is designed and how well it works. It appears to be well-priced, too. I look forward to seeing and tasting the end results. I award the Caukins Sous Vide Circulator 5 stars.

Bought to use with a sous vide. It works very well, and the product came out tasting amazing. Highly recommend.

I've had this device for only two months and it has stopped working!!! No wonder it's only a 30 day warranty!! It heats but no longer circulates water, therefore it's useless. Instructions are difficult to follow, if not impossible, and it's written in broken English and badly translated. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!

I have a chef friend who won't stop talking about their Sous Vide cooker, so when I saw this one, I thought I would give it a go! The Caukins Sous Vide Machine feels heavy duty, with a solid weight and a sturdy spring on the clip that holds it in place on the cooking pot. It also has a rubberized pad so it doesn't scratch your cookware. The digital display is easy to read and program. The cord is 48" long. It has 1100 watts of heating power and a quiet brushless motor to circulate the heat. It comes with an instruction booklet and a small full-color recipe book for meats, soft boiled eggs, vegetable, and fruit dishes with recommended cooking temperatures and times. For those who have not used a sous vide cooker before, the basic premise is to put the item you are cooking into a vacuum sealed bag (or a ziploc freezer bag) and place it into a large stainless cooking pot, fill it with water to the level indicated on the sous vide, and set it to temp for the recommended amount of time for that food item. For a listed sale price of $69.81 at the time of this review, the 1100w Caukins Sous Vide immersion cooker is an excellent value. It is an easy way to cook delicious, moist, nutritious meals that are sure to make everyone happy! I will be sure to update if there are any changes to my review as I use this product.
