This compact Anova sous vide cooker stands out as a cheap entry point for precise steak and meal prep cooking, with strong temperature control and reliable set and forget results. The comments highlight tender steaks, juicy chicken, ribs, and easy weeknight prep, and the small size makes it handy for travel or a regular pot. The main drawback is that this model has no buttons or display, so the phone app and Bluetooth are required, and support or subscription changes remain a concern. A solid low cost way to try sous vide if app control does not bother you.

Appreciate the detailed response. Sounds like a much better alternative to reverse searing (low temp in oven with a meat thermometer, and then quick sear both sides.)
The only issue is my wife has been going nuts about health stuff and would not want to boil food in plastic. Already tossed out my awesome Ovo non-stick pans and anything teflon coated. Won't even let me put plastics in dishwasher.
Here is an interesting read on sous vide and microplastics:

And it's this MODEL, not the brand. Anova (the brand) has plenty of models with touch controls, but they're not $20.

FoodSaver bags are generally considered free of BPA, BPS, and phthalates, and they are constructed from FDA-compliant polyethylene and nylon, making them safe for food storage and sous vide cooking. While some studies have detected PFAS in various plastic storage bags, independent tests often highlight FoodSaver as a safer alternative
I usually just do mine for 2 hours if I have the time, and then sear it for a couple minutes on my Weber gas grill. Or you can also sear it on a cast iron.
But I guess if you're doing low quality cuts, might need to cook it longer so it is more tender.
