I was a very early adopter of SV, and was initially totally won over but it really didn't catch with me long-term. I went back several times to it but eventually it became confined to the garage.
On the other hand very pleased with the latest Panny breadmaker range. Won't duplicate post and so there are some piccies in the other daily food thread.
The latest generation of cookers is really straight forward to use and extremely convenient. Especially in a diet it's a great way to prepare chicken breast without drying it out.
