Sous Smart SSV2700 Review: Does This Cheap Circulator Get The Job Done?

January 24, 2017 by Food For Net Leave a Comment

After reviewing 13 other immersion circulators, one more popped up on my radar recently…the Sous Smart SSV2700. I was pretty excited to review this one because it was really cheap – in the sixty dollar range when I bought it. Since then, the price has gone up. Bummer! But the good news is that it makes my decision to NOT recommend this device very easy.

Though it’s still cheap compared to some of the pricier immersion circulators I’ve reviewed over the past couple months, it’s currently no the cheapest. Considering it has a number of design flaws that make it difficult to use, it’s just not a great choice for most people. It does have some good reviews racking up on Amazon, as someone who’s tried many sous vide circulators, I don’t think this is the best one you can get for the price!

Gourmia GSV130 Immersion Circulator Review

December 30, 2016 by Food For Net Leave a Comment

When I started my whole ‘sous vide experiment’, I started with the Gourmia GSV130. It was one of the cheaper ones that I bought (13 total), so I figured I’d mess around with this one first. It was simple to start using (no wifi or apps), and if I broke it somehow, it wouldn’t matter. It was cheap anyway. I cooked quite a few steaks, salmon fillets, and pork chops before moving on to test the newer models from Gourmia and other brands that offer immersion circulators.

What ended up happening was that the GSV130 served as a base point on which I gauged my future experiences with immersion circulators. The Gourmia GSV130 was such a solid immersion circulator at such an inexpensive price, that I really had to look for reasons why someone would spend more than two times more on an appliance that basically did the same thing.

Gourmia GSV150 Immersion Circulator Review

December 21, 2016 by Food For Net Leave a Comment

As of the writing of this review, the Gourmia GSV150 was released just a month ago and is already racking up great reviews. With a number of other bluetooth sous vide immersion circulators on the market already (and probably more on the way), I had to test this model out to see not only how it compared to the previous Gourmia circulators, but how it faired against other bluetooth devices available.

Overall, the GSV150 met my expectations, having tested the GSV130 and GSV140. With it’s slim design, inexpensive price, and powerhouse (1200 watts) heating element, this is definitely an appliance I can recommend. Where I think it was lacking though, was the app to allows you to connect to the immersion circulator from your smartphone. Keep reading to see if the Gourmia GSV150 is the immersion circulator you’re looking for, or if you’d be better off spending your money elsewhere.

Gourmia SlowSmart 8.5 Quart Digital Slow Cooker Review

November 9, 2016 by Food For Net 29 Comments

The Gourmia DCP-860 SlowSmart 8.5 quart Digital Slow Cooker is the largest slow cooker I’ve tested to date. Clocking in at eight and a half quarts, it’s a monster. But slow cooked meals lend themselves to making extra, so buying a cooker as big as this is not a crazy idea. Gourmia is a brand headquartered in New York City, which specializes in specialty kitchen equipment. They have a few sous vide immersion circulators available, as well as multi cookers, rice cookers, and mini fridges.

Their lineup of slow cookers is not very diverse, but there are two main options – both 8.5 quarters. One is programmable, one is not. Today we’re going going to be reviewing the programmable version.
