Best cooking purchase I've ever made, despite some flaws. There's really nothing that can produce the results that this can, at least not outside 5 figure professional equipment.
Better than Breville Ovens? I find that hard to believe.

Apples and oranges. I've used a Breville oven extensively, and it's great. But it can't do what this can. If you don't understand the utility, or salivate over not needing to throw ice cubes in a cast iron skillet to control oven spring on your sourdough … that's fine. Just might not be something for you.

Thankfully this is still over my impulse boy threshold …

This is much more then a conventional oven due to the steam control.

Where do you see bad reviews?
They are deceptively well hidden. Reviews are sorted best to worst, with no way to change, no way to fast forward, and just 5 reviews per page. You've got to really want to see them, but there are lots. 3-star reviews start on p32, and keep going through p41.

Most don't look like dumb user issues to me. Looks like there are a lot of quality issues. I'm a geek and a cook, early sous vide adopter, but wouldn't go near this until Gen 2. Even the 5-star reviews are full of complaints about lousy app, connectivity dropping, flimsy tray and cracking water tank.

I've had this oven since it was introduced and I absolutely love it. However, you need to have specific cooking needs I guess. The primary reason for its existence is to be a "sous vide" oven. For instance, I want to sous vide a whole fish but don't want to vaccuum bag a fish and put it in a water bath. With the APO I just put the fish on a plate and set it to 120 degrees. Poof, fully cooked fish already plated.

I've done chilean sea bass filets, pork chops, steaks, etc, all brought up to an exact temperature that I want.

There are benefits over sous vide too. I can quickly heat a salmon filet at 300 until the internal temperature is 100 degrees, then automatically have it reduce temperature until internally it's a perfect 120. Lots of choices that way.

I've had no quality issues with mine except the included pan warps a bit. Not a big deal. It's definitely more involving to clean because it's often a moist mess inside so you have to be careful of mildew.

All in all, I greatly value mine. I got mine at the intro price of $700, so this sale price is fantastic imo.

If I had not bought a Suvie I would have bought this. Highly recommend these type of kitchen robot appliances

I would recommend you to look for reviews first with what I mentioned before in mind, that's definitely going to be more comprehensive.

But if you ask me, I would say the best part about this is that you do really have a precise control over all the element this oven could provide. Temperature is really precise to half degree, humidity precise to the percentage, and integrated thermometer works like a charm. I have used this to sous vide and grill a piece of picanha from frozen to perfectly medium rare with great sear in this oven costs only about 2 and half hours. It is really amazing. And there's much more this can do. It is the most used cooking appliance in my house now.

However like I said for cons I can list a lot. The software is not so great - it is not super stable, although not like annoying, but there's a few times I found it disconnected from WiFi. Reboot helps. The integration with alexa and stuff are just barebone. The control on the oven itself is quite hard to use - not that it is badly designed, but the oven is too capable that it takes a lot of time to go through numbers. And cleaning is more challenging than average oven, because it could do a lot it also could make sure all kinds of spills and smudge could present, and the water tank plays a adversary role in this.
how is the steam function? I've been looking for something that can steam say, a whole fish

Works, but again it needs you to know how regular steaming actually works, mainly what's the steam's temperature and how it heats your food. Long story short I use 100% humidity with rear heat at 221 degree a lot.

This works great for that. I was able to fit a standard size casserole dish inside it diagonally, and you can also just put the fish directly on the rack. You can even not use steam and sous vide it dry. That way you can crisp the skin before/after cooking and then dry sous vide it up to temp.

I use this thing primarily to steam whole fish. Super easy.

I have owned this oven for a bit over a year. Love it. It can be used to steam or bake anything. I've done everything from reheat pastries to 6 hours prime rib. My number one use case, though is: Roast/Baked Chicken. This goes for most meats you cook in the Anova but because you steam (sous vide) first, the insides are juicier than normal and you get great temperature control since you are cooking at low temps. Then, you crank the thing up to 450 to get the char.

i saw some of the posts about the tray not holding water or whatnot but I've had zero issues. I even lost my temperature probe once and anova replaced it for free, no questions asked. My one small gripe is that the buttons can be a bit tricky to press and you have to press them a lot. (I find I use the app less often than in beginning.)

Counter space is an issue but otherwise, I think this easily replaces and improves on a regular oven for a small family.

Thank you for posting this! I just purchased this on Friday, so I'm hopeful Anova will do a price adjustment or allow me to cancel and reorder.

Damn - sick deal. Only thing I don't like about this oven is that it takes a while to heat up because we are stuck with puny 120v-15a breakers in this country for everything. If only we could have 220v-20a - this baby would rip.
You've got 120/20 most places for outlets. 15A is used for lighting circuits. You can put a 220/50o in your kitchen ( that would be a stove outlet) but you wouldn't have anything to plug into it unless you ship it in from Europe. And finding 220V ground fault outlets is a challenge. It's a code violation to have a non ground fault within 6 feet of water.
