The appliance has a [built-in probe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anova-precision-oven-20) that is inserted into foods to track cooking progress and doesn't require that recipes be vacuum-sealed into bags to be used. The water-free functionality works with a [vacuum chamber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vacuum-food-processor) within to keep the temperature at the optimal level for precision results. The 'Neovide' sous vide cooker maintains a one-step design that works to marinate, vacuum, sous vide and even sear recipes. This eliminates the multi-step process associated with sous vide cooking to open up the previously high-end method to more consumers by highlighting ease of use as well as price accessibility. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 13% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Water-free Cooking:** Develop water-free appliances that eliminate the need for plastic bags, making it more environmentally friendly and convenient. - **Multi-step Cooking Simplification:** Create kitchen appliances that can perform multiple tasks and simplify complex cooking processes to make high-end meals easier to prepare. - **Smart Cooking Devices:** Incorporate built-in probes and sensors into kitchen appliances to automate cooking processes and improve precision and consistency. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Kitchen Appliance Manufacturing:** Manufacturers can explore developing new kitchen appliances with smart features that offer convenience and environmental sustainability. - **Food Service Industry:** Restaurants and catering businesses can benefit from the ease and precision of water-free cooking and incorporating smart cooking devices to improve efficiency. - **Home Cooking and Meal Kit Delivery Services:** Home cooking enthusiasts and meal kit delivery services can utilize water-free sous vide cookers to simplify complex cooking processes and offer more high-end meal options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mini Sous-Vide Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anova-precision-cooker-mini.md) - [Food Vacuum Sealers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vacuum-sealer-pro.md) - [Built-In Sous Vide Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/signature-kitchen-suite.md) - [Time-Saving Immersion Circulators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joule-turbo-sous-vide.md) - [Reverse-Searing Recipe Cookers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/agari-cooker.md) - [Tech-Forward Precision Cooking Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/precision-cooking-tools.md) - [Sustainable Smart Cookers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sevvy-smart-cooker.md) - [Air Sous Vide Ovens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-nx9100d-bespoke-gas-range.md) - [Vacuum-Powered Food Processing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vacuum-food-processor.md)
