  1. It arrived but not without a struggle. Online it said it was ready to pick up. After work I went directly to my mailbox down the block and there wasn't a parcel card. I went to the post office with the tracking number. The girl told me that it wasn't there yet. I went to my house and on my doorknob was the parcel card (first time it has been there instead of my mailbox). I went back to the post office and it was there. I was too happy to make a fuss. I got it home and made my first 63.3 egg and it was perfect! (I did throw it in boiling water for a little bit to firm up the white. The yolk was amazing. I can't believe that from now on, I can have the perfect egg every time I want. Yum! I have two ribeye steaks in there now, I can't wait for them to be done. Thanks to everyone who posted about the Anova, I have enjoyed all the comments.
  2. My Anova made it to Edmonton and now is on the final leg of its journey to its new home on Cold Lake. My friend, however, is still stuck in Toronto but has a flight tomorrow night to Vancouver (she is trying to get to Edmonton, so this is interesting). At least my Anova is moving faster than most of the people stuck in Toronto. The roads around where I live are black ice tonight. With my luck the postal truck will be cancelled due to road conditions and my Anova will be rerouted to Vancouver. I really want it before the weekend. Maybe I need to invest some money in Anova - they are selling their circulators like hotcakes!
  3. I see on the website that they are sold out. After a vacation in Chicago, mine is know stuck in Ontario due to poor weather (I also have a friend stuck in Toronto since Monday morning and now they tell her she can't get a flight until the 10th!). I am just happy I actually have one on the way. Nothing anyone can do about the weather. When it gets here, it gets here. Fellow Canadians - not sure if you know this but once you get your tracking number, use it on USPS until it clears customs then you can use the same number at Canada Post Tracking to see where it is in Canada.
  4. The shipping to Canada is all in - courier, broker fees, GST etc. It's worth it unless you have a US address to ship to then pick up. Unfortunately, I have to report that taxes and fees were not included in the shipping price. I had to pay an extra 41$ on taxes and fees. The actual shipping cost was around 51$ so that's disappointing. Hopefully the quality of the product will make up for it. I ordered mine to Canada after reading this thread in its entirety. I've got a Cambro 18CW135 with lid coming too. Heard back from Anova - bit of a backlog but mine should be shipping next Friday. I'll update when I receive as to extra charges (i.e. duties, taxes, etc.). When did you order? I placed my order on the 27th but haven't heard anything about shipping yet. Did you check your junk folder? If it isn't there, you should call the company.
  5. The wait is killing me! I ordered on December 21 and it still isn't here. This is its 5th day in Chicago. I wonder what the attraction is for an immersion blender? Maybe it found a bachelor party and will arrive with sketchy photos. I have my meat prepped and sealed, ready to go. I was thinking of filling a pot of water but decided not to push my luck. Every day I find more recipes I want to try. Don't know what I will try first, probably the standard egg.
