Worked well, but connection wire can't take heat November 1, 2008 Buckwheat (usa) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Item worked great until I used it in my Weber grill. With the lid closed it fried the braided metal wire that went from the probe to the unit with the temperature readout. Maybe it was my fault, but you would think that something that is designed to work with an oven would be able to withstand high temperatures.
Nice, but not for Induction October 21, 2008 Xaga The thermometer works well enough at the beginning. Nothing has gone wrong yet. One major problem for those with induction cooktops is evidently the electronics have absolutely no shielding. That means when you are using an induction cooktop, even from a meter away, it freaks out with every slight motion. If you leave it in place, then it doesn't freak out as much. So far, so good, just great deals of trouble with induction stovetops.
Cable breaks, replacement pricey September 21, 2008 T. Acar (Seattle, WA) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
It worked for a number of months, and then it just stopped. Why? Because the shielded wire broke due to use in the oven. The design should have considered its use in the oven and the shield (which should have been like a mail) should have accounted for that. But, no: cheap engineering.
Yes, you can order replacements, pretty much at the same price as a new one! Don't be fooled by the removable feature that gives you the impression that you can cheaply fix it. You can't, but instead buy a new one.
Great Timer, Crappy Probe August 24, 2008 Seth's Mom (Orlando, FL United States) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I got this for Christmas this past year, and I love it! It takes all the guess work out of roasting meats rare, medium, etc. We used it Christmas night for the roast beast! What I do no love is the shoddy probe. I am now ordering my second replacement probe. The first one went crazy after about 6 months, said everything was 69 degrees. The replacement lasted about 3 months, and now says my kitchen (never mind when I put it IN the meat) is 298 degrees. I love the timer because it is great, but replacing probes every few months is getting OLD!
Total Crap August 1, 2008 SJS (La La Land) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Right out of the box it was defective. Said that my roast was 380 degrees when I pulled it out of the fridge. Tested in on a cooked roast, said that the temperature was too high to measure at ver 450 degrees. Riiiiiiiight.
Utter piece of garbage, this product.
