Looks interesting, and no plastic to worry about.  However they are taking orders now for Sept. 2016

Still not ready for the pig in a hot tub.

I've been living with the "All-In-One Cooking Device" for a few months.

Mini review:  Does what it says it does.  Seems sturdy.  Perfect rice.  Stainless steel pot better than teflon-coated stuff.

Sous vide is ok, but there is something off-putting about pulling a perfectly cooked 135F medium rare ribeye out of its plastic cocoon, blotting off the blood and gore, then blowtorching the thing to a perfect surface crust.  Sous vide is good for salmon, though.

The Sansaire unit I just got ("immersion circulator") makes the most amazing poached eggs in the shell. I just set it to 150�F -- still playing with different temps -- and wait. No plastic required.
