Looking for a new Sous vide cooker

[sandyut]

Speaking of. I have a Primeweld plasma cutter and the adjustment valve for air pressure broke. I emailed them to ask about buying a replacement knob. Customer service called me back and I explained what happened and ask about buying a knob. Customer service said we’ll warranty that and then asked if the address they had on file was current. They sent the whole valve assembly. It had a 3 year warranty and I bought it July of 2021. I will likely be buying another machine from them.

See like that! Rec Teq was the same, call and asked about my probes, they asked for address and sent 2 new ones. I had un underwater strobe that flooded on a dive trip, call the manufacturer when we got home - they said "send it in and we will let you know", week later I got an email say it was my fault and a replacement was in the mail - FREE.

Those are examples of how it should work if a company wants to keep customers!

You might contact the Consumer Products Safety Commission (cpsc.gov,) if Trump hasn't axed it yet, and relate your experience. It would appear to be a significant safety concern.

NICE! I have the older version of this same one. LOVE it. Used it last night to warm up some frozen smoked BB's...first time I did that. Worked good! Had to due to oven failure, but it was easy. Beef is my fav SV. I got the temp dialed in so my wife and daughter dont this its too rare, and I like it too.

Enjoy the ride!

So why that one? I've been wanting to get one, but just can't seem to narrow it down...

I have had the same one (Think it's the ISV-200W) from the look of it for a few years now. The only issue I have had is that the plastic around the lug where the tube attaches got brittle and broke off. Rigged it up with a hose clamp and still using it.

You can see where part of the lug broke away in the first photo. The lug should be the same all the way around.

I little engineering got it going again though

This outfit has done a lot of cooks, and for what I paid for it, it has more than earned its keep, and as said, I am still using it, currently.

From the other day.
