Important to note that it's app only. There are no controls on the device other than a power button.
You do not need to pay subscription to use it unless you want wifi capability. It is free to use via the app/Bluetooth.
Overall it's pretty good but during a cook the app can struggle to refresh if you leave and come back to it so what I do is close out the app entirely and reopen and it has consistently connected after that. Not too bad of an issue but worth noting
these are great, easiest example is for meat- you're not boiling them, you're holding them at specific temps so that the proteins behave certain ways. e.g. 144°F chicken breast is more or less rare and safe to eat because it's been pasteurized, but the meat won't get stringy or tough because that's a side affect of being exposed to high heat.
great stuff- lots of kenji articles on serious eats about it. buying a couple of these to hand out as gifts, lol- annoying to have to use app to set it, but it's 20$ a pop which is less than aldi's cheapo SVs when they have them randomly.
Community Reviews
This compact Anova Precision Cooker Mini is mainly praised as an easy entry into sous vide, with precise temperature control and solid results for steak, roast, lamb, eggs, and even reheating steak. The free app and Bluetooth control work without a subscription for basic use, and the $20 price with free shipping makes it feel like a strong starter deal. The main drawbacks are the app dependence, lack of physical controls, and the separate WiFi or full app subscription for extra features. It also needs a tall straight sided pot or container, so the mini name is a little misleading.

850w is the relevant number, and that's a decent heater. Could start with hot water if pushing the limit, but I don't think that would be an issue with a home sized cooking vessel and this device.
Will buy another brand. Screw putting subscriptions on my cooking devices. That company can die for all I care.

They do a good job because a lot of other cooking options cause your flavors to get watered down or cooked off.

If something is free (or this cheap) then you're the product for sale...more specifically your information, habits, eyeball time for ads, and obviously the upsell for a totally unrealistic $10/month. The rare circumstances where I'd need to turn on a SV at an exact time while not home I can count on one hand...and it would be trivial to build in a delayed-start timer. But nah, get they app they say. It'll be cool they say. We won't (get caught) stealing your info they say.
Nope.

You don't need the app to actually run it. You only need the app to set your temp on the device and check current temp

It means that eventually they will stop supporting the device in their app, and it will become a paperweight. This is not theoretical, they already removed support for some of their earlier models - but at least those have physical controls, you can use them without the app just fine.
