Frozen Screen During Wi-Fi Setup – Completely Unusable
"I had high expectations for the Anova Precision Cooker Pro, but unfortunately it has been a huge disappointment. During the initial Wi-Fi setup, the cooker froze completely. After restarting, the display only shows a “+” symbol and becomes totally unresponsive. The unit cannot be used, cannot reconnect to Wi-Fi, and there is no way to recover it. What’s even more frustrating is that this is already a replacement unit, and it developed the exact same problem during Wi-Fi setup. This suggests a firmware or software issue rather than an isolated hardware defect. For a premium sous vide cooker at this price point, this level of reliability is unacceptable. A failed Wi-Fi setup should never be able to permanently brick the device. Until Anova fixes this issue, I cannot recommend the Precision Cooker Pro. I purchased this model for its premium features, but instead ended up with two unusable units. Extremely disappointing."
