Anova finally selling their $99 Nano
The Nano was announced at CES early this year and is finally available:

IMO, the best feature of the last model is the adjustable height on the clamp.
I would sacrifice size and spend more just to have this.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
Got my $59 ($69?) Nano last month. I think I ordered it a year and half ago. When they got delayed and offered to refund money I just let it ride. Haven't used it yet though.

I guess the price may be appealing, but if the wifi version can be had for $20-40 more on sale, that's the better option.
The Nano still has a somewhat flared head, less power, and control through the app only and BT. I hate BT devices because the range has never worked as advertised.
I bought a Joule last year, because the size and form factor appealed to me, and have been very pleased with it. I use it almost exclusively now, a few times weekly. Compact, rated at 1100W, wifi and BT, and can be used with just about any size of pot. It is more expensive though.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

It is more expensive though.The Nano has manual controls on the device so you don't have to use a gizmo unlike the Joule which requires the use of a gizmo.Personally, I couldn't care less about BT or WiFi in a sous vide circulator but I can see that may be "useful" to some folks.Does the wattage difference really matter? If I'm soaking a chuck roast for 48 hours I'm not sure I would care if the water takes an extra 10 minutes to heat up.I'm guessing the Nano appeals on price and sized to slip in a kitchen drawer unlike their previous models. Anova also announced some other new models at CES but I don't recall the details on what else they had coming to market soon.

"Maximum 5 gallon cook". I guess that will work with the 4.75 gallon Cambro I use for ribs and other big cooking jobs.
