Third replacement in under 6months dead on arrival
"It’s a very interesting product with no real competition on the market…but it is unfortunately also deeply unreliable. Anova (after much fighting) just replaced my oven for the third time in 6 months, and the latest unit I cannot pair to the app due to a Bluetooth error. Support takes days to respond and is not always constructive, replacement units can be out of stock for months, real troubleshooting and repairs are not possible, and lugging 80lbs boxes to UPS for returns is getting old fast. Purchase at your own risk."

Unfortunate experience
"This is the best oven on the market yet very cheaply built. I purchased two initially. Went through 4 so far. Something always breaks or stops working. Now we are out of warranty and had to buy the new version(so my 5th apo) which ended ip being about 3x the price of the older model. Listen for $1400(after tax) I want this oven to last 10 years, not 2 years and 1 month which is what i anticipate the life of version 2 will be. Very disappointed. If there was an alternative from the bigger brands I would not go with anova. But because we cook so much and professionally at home we have no other option at the moment."

Excellent household combo oven
"I am very pleased with my recent purchase of the Anova precision oven 2. 0. I have used it every day for the past week with excellent cooking results through the Anova app."

Love the device - but limited recipes are disappon
"I have been a huge fan since the beginning and have bought (almost) all iterations of the products. Am disappointed with the recipe availability. Wanted to do a whole roast chicken in the precision oven and only one recipe available!!!!! Disappointing."

I was a sceptic!
"My first APO failed, it was replaced and the replacement packed in when it was just out of warranty. I was very hesitant to buy another after reading reviews but, so far, have been very happy with my new (and third) APO. I was hesitant about the exposed bottom element with cleaning but so far that has been easy as lifts for cleaning. The camera is amazing with the way it selects the food, the panel with bright colours is so easy to use, my previous two ovens would not connect to wifi whereas this one connected without a problem and has not failed, love the way it selects food (eg bacon, English muffins) and cooks to perfection. I have to admit I cannot find fault. Since I have had an APO (from when first released in Australia) I have not used my full sized oven. I am thrilled I made the decision to give the APO one more chance, it is a great improvement on the original oven."

Do NOT purchase. Piece of junk.
"I bought the original ANOVA Precision Oven, and after a couple of years it stopped working. I reached out to ANOVA, and their only solution was to offer me 10% off on buying a new oven (same offer as signing up for their email list). They had no solution to repair the oven that I have. This is not a company you want to do business with. AVOID AVOID AVOID. Besides that, when I used it, it would constantly get extremely dirty and smell terrible even though I tried to clean it often. My kids would not want to eat anything from their oven. At our restaurant we use a Rational Combi Oven, which has an incredible cleaning mode. I plan to purchase one for my home."

Food prep essential
"This is our second ANOVA precision oven, and we love it. Our first oven is still going strong in my son's kitchen. We rarely use our regular range oven, as we cook everything in the ANOVA. It has become the core supporting our healthy and delicious diet."

Great countertop oven!
"I had a June oven before this and thought it was the best until I got the Anova Precision Oven 2. 0! It is by far better than any countertop oven including the June that I’ve ever owned and used! I use it more than my large ovens. love the camera food recognition feature, the multiple stage possibilities when cooking, and the steam mode. I would love to be able to type in the food that the camera does not recognize. For example, it does not recognize mini corn dogs or sourdough bread. It would be nice to be able to put names of food and that it does not recognize as a title for future cooking."

Very negative, terrible customer service
"This is the worst experience I have ever had, we returned our oven for a replacement 5 months ago and still no advice on when we will get our oven back or a refund. There is just automated responses with no one in Australia to speak to. I would not recommend a purchase from this company. Would give a minus in my review of this company"

Not made to last
"Our oven started shutting itself off randomly without warning at around 18 months of use. Spent some time trying every solution listed online and didn’t contact warranty until it was just past the warranty period (my mistake) and got the shaft from customer service!! Save your money and stick with an appliance built to last!"
