Thank you so much for this honest review! I'm an avid smoker, but I live in a state where it's very cold and snowy (don't have a covered porch, so smoker is regularly covered in inches of snow for 5 months out of the year). Based on your review, I'll be going with the non-pro precision model. So excited!

[@topsousvide]

Awesome! I’m glad it helped! We have some connections. I love smoking too on my BGE. And we must live in a similar part of the country! If I may, consider using my link in the description to make your purchase. It’ll cost you nothing and help me find more videos like this. Thanks and have a great day!

Thank you for making this video. Do you mind if I make a suggestion with the editing, just in case you make another video similar to this in the future? When it comes to the section where you show us how loud they are and how they all compare to each other, my suggestion would be to pause the background music, so that we can hear nothing at all, other than the sous vides themselves. In one of your older videos, where you unboxed the 3.0 you did this right, so I'm guessing it might have just been an oversight. But I thought I should really bring it up just so you can keep it in mind for next time. Also, I would have loved if you could have used a sound level meter to measure how loud each one was like you have done in the past. I hate the high pitch of the Precision that I have and am considering spending the money to buy a Pro to replace it and now that I have heard yours in the video and can see that it sounds different I am definitely more leaning towards getting it. But would be nice to know in decibels how loud it is compared to the other ones. Actually, if you are looking for video ideas, that could be a future video you could think of doing, where you have every unit you have and measure how loud they all are 😁 Anyway, thank you again for doing these videos, very much appreciated Regards Ben

[@topsousvide]

Good to hear from you, Ben! I appreciate the input. Yes, you're right. It was an editing mistake not to turn the background music down when inviting viewers to listen to the machines. Thanks for the reminder! I chose not to use the sound meter on this video because in my prep the Pro and Standard 3.0 measured similar decibels but the pitch made a big difference, which is what I tried to emphasize in the video. Good suggestion for a video idea. I'll keep that in mind, along with the rest of your feedback. I sincerely appreciate you watching and providing feedback. There's no better way for me to get better at this. Happy New Year!

[@topsousvide]

Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@Jayfoxpox]

would the sound get louder if they were working in a bigger volume than the test?

[@topsousvide]

Hi. No, that's the sound they make regardless of target temp, etc. Thanks for watching!

[@valhala73]

Great video!!! I want de Sous vide for infusions in the bar ,wich one will be better?

[@topsousvide]

@@topsousvide I would like to but it takes such a long time to arrive here. All the best

[@topsousvide]

Oh, no worries! Have a great day!

One thing we have done is use 2 containers that can nest together and sandwich afew sheets of paper towels between all around and cover the lid with acouple of tea towels. A sort of half arse insulation, and according to the Kill A Watt Electricity Usage Monitor it has reduced the power used by over 30%. My mate butchered a rather expensive cooler box and he says his power use has dropped 50%, i preffer my cheap mac guyver method but to each there own. Thanks for the video, i was curious as we have the nano 2.0, but i do fancy getting it's big brother, when next on sale, the pro i think is more for people that sous vide all the time. Take care, God bless one and all.

[@topsousvide]

Oh wow! Thanks for sharing that great insight! Blessings to you.

[@LKN4WAR]

Are these unit using the full rated wattage the entire time?

[@topsousvide]

Good question. No, they aren’t.

[@DylanJainchill]

[@topsousvide]

Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching and providing feedback!

[@BOS2AUS]

Great video. You should kill the music during the sound test

[@topsousvide]

Thanks! I agree. That was an editing mistake.

[@colo5220]

Lol, I thought my Anova Pro was defective with the loud noise. Thanks now I know my Pro is normal.

[@topsousvide]

Glad it helped 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@winterrose8174]

Weird. I feel like mine is so quiet, especially compared to our old sous vide. We can barely hear it. I have to check to make sure it is on sometimes.
