The counterweight comes from specialist communities. r/sousvide threads repeatedly flag weak—and reportedly worsening—build quality, noise, and slower heating, with the 2.0 specifically called out for struggling to hold higher temperatures and relying on older single-band WiFi.

As a compact second unit for small pots and short cooks, community reviewers find it useful; as a primary machine, the consensus is lukewarm.

- What to cook

It has a lot of positive reviews but there are a few negative (noise, and other problems) which are making me think about it twice.
The build quality has always been terrible and it's apparently only gotten worse. They have bluetooth/wifi and a shiny app and it has never ...
