The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other slow cookers, electric pressure and rice cookers, sous vide, food dehydrators, egg cookers, popcorn poppers, and ice cream and shaved ice machines we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Yedi Houseware GV024 is a plastic-bodied immersion circulator with touch controls, running at 1000W on standard 120V power. At 14.5 inches tall and 3.0 lb, it is one of the lighter circulators in the mid-price range, which makes it easy to lift, store, and clip onto a pot one-handed.
The 4.6-star rating from 1,350 reviews places it in the top tier for buyer satisfaction in this price band. Around 1,000 units sell per month, which confirms ongoing demand rather than a fading product. Yedi packages the GV024 with a black finish that looks clean on a countertop.
With 1000W, it lands between the 800W budget tier and the 1100W mid-range. Preheat times are reasonable for 6 to 10 quart containers. No app connectivity is included, but touch controls are intuitive and sufficient for most cooking scenarios.
Performance notes
The 1000W draw places the GV024 in comfortable mid-range territory. For a typical 8-quart pot, it reaches common sous vide temperatures, such as 130 to 145 degrees Fahrenheit, in a reasonable time. The 3.0 lb weight is notably lighter than many rivals, and the 4.6 x 2.6 x 14.5 inch profile clips securely without taking up excessive container space.
What buyers say
A 4.6-star average from 1,350 reviews is a strong result and not easily inflated by a small pool. The steady monthly sales volume of around 1,000 units suggests buyer satisfaction is converting to organic recommendations. Reviewers most often highlight the value and ease of use. Negative notes typically concern the plastic build or questions about long-term durability.

Is the Yedi GV024 hard to use for first-time sous vide cooks?
No. The GV024 uses touch controls directly on the unit, with no app setup required. You clip it to a pot, fill with water, set your target temperature, and set a timer. The interface is direct and straightforward, which is one reason first-time buyers rate it well.
How does the plastic body hold up compared to stainless steel units?
At the $88 price point, plastic is common. The GV024's housing is food-safe and rated for sustained heat exposure. That said, buyers who prefer the feel and longevity of stainless steel may want to look at the KitchenBoss G300 at around $106, which offers a similar wattage in a stainless build.
