I do macros:

And use the Anova Precision Oven (APO) for meal-prep:

This isn't some random QVC "12-in-1" magic oven, this is a legitimate residential Combi countertop oven, and some of the features are even better than the $4,000+ in-wall residential Combi ovens! There are like 200+ actually GOOD recipes on their website as well:

I've been using mine for a year now & I'm picking up a second one with the Black Friday sale. I do a TON of stuff with mine:
1. Sous-vide
2. Convection-bake
3. Steam-bake breads & proof dough
4. Make yogurt
5. Dehydrate jerky, plus leftover fruits, veggies, herbs, etc.
6. Reheat foods using steam (amazing, more on that in a minute)
7. Giant air-fryer (wings come out awesome!)
8. Toast in bulk
9. Grilled cheese in bulk (great for cooking for a family or roommates)
10. Easy omelets in a pie tin
Plus a ton of other stuff. Air-fried Uncrustables are pretty bomb:

>>>>> If you ARE familiar with sous-vide, here are the benefits *****
1 - no bath require. It uses steam to generate the same effect as sous-viding in a tub of water. I've compared this 1:1 personally
2 - no bags required. You can just stick stuff like meat on a tray, easy peasy. Although if you want to do a multi-day cook you should use a bag for food safety reasons (ex. like a 72-hour pulled pork)
3 - I do a lot of jarred foods in mini mason jars (egg bites, creme brulee, mini cheesecakes, etc.). You can just stick them in on a tray!
4 - You can do larger items like a full-sized cheesecake, you can use molds to make fun shapes out of eggs, using metal measuring cups to make easy sliders with ground beef, etc.
5 - No having to weigh down bags or get weights or magnets
6 - Looks "normal", not like a science experiment on your counter lol
>>>>> Additional notes *****
First - I would buy this oven solely for the reheating feature. Reheating with steam is GAME-CHANGE for leftovers! Microwaves make the middles frozen & the outsides rubbery; with the APO, it can reheat most foods 90 to 95% as good as the original meal. Just amazing!
Second - there were issues with the water tanks cracking over time from the steam heat. It looks like the updated version has a plastic shield on it to prevent that.
Third - there's a good subreddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CombiSteamOvenC
For those who want to invest a little time.
Bread:

Also, since you can adjust temp and humidity, you can proof dough near perfect and tweek for any specific dough recipe/hydration/etc.
Roasts (and chicken):

Meats will have better yield (be nice and juicy, lose less juice, less dried out), nicer brown and crisp, and take less time to boot, all while using a notch lower temperature.
Vegggie: can tweak humidity/heat to get hella great steamed veggies, same for roasted.
The combi's im familiar with do not have to be preheated. I think they are all like that.
Not preheating means less time spent cooking, as well as shorter cooking times. better results. Don't stink up kitchen nearly as much as other electric or gas ovens. It just makes cooking well at home many times a week so much more doable if you understand the oven, and some basic cooking.
This oven is closer to the anti-thesis of all the cooking gimicks you have been subjected too. you just have to take the time to understand it, which isn't neccarily long, just has to be focused.
A poster said 'put pan of water in oven samething' or something close. laughable. Yes you can do that in a standard oven or toaster oven when making custards, cheesecake or whatever. Doesn't have much to do with a combi oven, yet a combi oven would be perfect for that too. Who wants to deal with putting a pan in a standard gas oven, and dealing with preheating and all of that, or puting a pan of water in an electric oven and having to be so careful. That's just limited to things like cheesecake.
I have no pony in your race. Just investing a little of my time for those who are interested in figuring out what this thing is.
You can essentially do sous vide in it without dealing with sous vide setup of filling containers with water, and dealing with vac bags, or getting all the air out of zip lock bags.
Can even do the little PITA things easier, like put hard cold butter in a dish, turn the temp to 160, humididty to (not sure what number), and come back and have melted butter, that looks like melted butter with solids still mixed, not solids seperated like too easy to do in microwave or pan.

Superheated steam is steam at a temperature higher than its boiling point for the pressure, which only occurs when all liquid water has evaporated or has been removed from the system.[5]. [wikipedia.org]
Honestly - how much more can it dip between now and Black Friday? With chip shortage and all that - is this really likely to dip? How easy is it to get a 15% coupon?

Basically the Anova is what really expensive professional and industrial kitchens use. The Sharp is supposed to be slightly better at toasting because it puts high humidity in place.
