Magic Mill Souvia Sous Vide Review
The Magic Mill Souvia Sous Vide was a unit we initially liked a lot, however there were some things that did give us some concern during our review. One of the biggest things to be aware of is while this model does offer WiFi Connectivity it's only on the 2.4 GHz band, and most modern routers are on the 5 GHz band. This means you have to create a separate 2.4 GHz WiFi Channel and Connect to that if you want to use the WiFi Functionality. The clip is a tension clip, which felt pretty flimsy compared to all of the other clamp styles. However, it's actually pretty clever, since it rests on the bottom the clip only need to keep the unit from tipping over, it doesn't need to clamp down on the side of the cooking vessel. This model was slightly better than average quality compared to other models. We didn't have any quality issues, however there are a few too many reports of malfunctions from other people to ignore. We'd like to give this model a higher review score but there were just too many people having problems, so know what you're getting yourself into before you choose this model. The Magic Mill Souvia Sous Vide is $55.99 , compared to our second highest rated model the Wancle Sous Vide SVC001 for $88.00 which we feel is a much better value.
Magic Mill Souvia Sous Vide Features

Magic Mill Souvia Sous Vide Design and Feel
This model is 14.25" in height which makes this model smaller than the average of all the models we reviewed. it has a standard strength housing and a polycarbonate tube housing for the heating unit. It has an alligator style clamp, which is easy to set-up and cleanup and put away, but it doesn't off a lot of flexibility for vertical adjustment.

We liked a lot of the things about this model, but in the end we found there were too many other people with defective units for us to really feel comfortable recommending this model. For just slightly more money you can get our second highest rated model the Wancle Sous Vide SVC001 which is a much better value. We recommend the Wancle Sous Vide SVC001 instead.
