Verified Well made, works good, better than competitor products for the price It was able to tell me the temperature of my meat. Seams to work well. Its not instant but certainly identifies the temperature within seconds. Its small, lightweight and feels better built than some prior thermometers we've had. We use when grilling, cooking on the stove or checking things in the oven and no complaints after a few months of usage. Its bright and easy to read. Its been under water a few times... and its still working. I would buy this again.Verified Very good product Love this meat thermometer. Very accurate and the display is very easy to read. Highly recommend.Verified Works perfectly and great price! My husband loves this meat thermometer! The price was perfect and this works better than the more expensive ones we had to replace. Hubby was very surprised at the price and quality. Love the fact that there is a magnet on the back so it is always easy to find on the refrigerator.Verified Well built Thermometer for all sorts of uses. This is a very useful thermometer for all sorts of purposes. The number will automatically flip to be right side up so it doesn't matter how you hold it. On the back, it shows the recommended temperatures for cooking meat.I've used this thermometer to gauge the room temperature, the AC temperature (of my house and car), cooking meats, as well as measuring water temperature for making tea.The only improvement I can think of would be a switch for Celsius to Fahrenheit. There is a button that must be pressed and held for about 5 seconds before it switches and it gets a bit annoying to use. Otherwise, 5/5 stars. Very well built.Verified Great Meat Thermometer! This is a major upgrade from the cheaper version of this product. I love how it automatically turns on and off when the metal is stored away or pulled out. It's easy to ready, is super responsive, and very easy to clean. Perfect device for knowing when the meat is truly cooked.Verified Easy to use and fairly accurate. Good thermometer. My first digital one. It's fairly accurate. Haven't had to calibrate it yet. About the size of a dinner plate. Probe is very sharp and I have had not issues inserting it into meat. Love the orange. Back light is bright and numbers are easy to read. It has a lock for the reading but haven't had to use it. I've dropped it a couple times and it very durable and hasn't effected it. It's light weight and can be hung off for grill or it does have a magnet that is fairly strong and I haven't attached to my fridge or on my smoker when not in use.Verified Fast, accurate and readable for 3.5 years Fast and accurate response, large readable numbers with backlighting, strong magnetic back makes it easy to store on the metal surface of my refrigerator, durable and very easy to clean. In June 2025 the temperature readings began to fluctuate and respond very slowly. It is now totally unreliable, even after the AAA battery was replaced. Not bad for 3.5 years. This thermometer has raised the quality of cooking in my kitchen since January 2022. I will buy it again.Verified Accurate and Easy to Use I recently picked up the ThermoPro digital meat thermometer and have been impressed overall. The temperature readings are fast and reliable; ideal whether I’m grilling steaks or roasting a chicken. The backlit display is clear, and the hold function is a lifesaver for checking temps mid-cooking.That said, there are a couple of small annoyances. The fold-out probe can feel a bit stiff at first and takes some time to get used to rotating smoothly. The build quality feels solid, and battery life has been great. I've used it for several BBQ sessions without needing a replacement battery. Overall, this ThermoPro is a great tool for home cooks and grill enthusiasts.Verified Life saver My family and I were on vacation for a week and realized we had forgotten our food thermometer, so I hopped on Amazon to have one sent to our vacation spot. It arrived in two days and saved us for a few nights while we were there. The temperature display is adequate and I would say average for the size thermometer. Temperature readings come out very quickly compared to how long we used to have to wait with older thermometers. I liked the back lit display which made reading temperatures easy at night. An additional bonus that this thermometer has is that the temperature rotates on the screen. So if you have it One Direction and flip it over to the other direction, the reading on the screen rotates to the right side of orientation. It makes reading temperatures out a glance a lot easier instead of having to decipher it upside down. The thermometer was also priced right and I feel that it was good value for the money spent.Verified Tavsiye ederim Biraz daha ucuzu var ama o bukadar iyi değil Kesinlikle bu alinmalı. Ayrıca cok hızli teslim edildi. Teşekkür ederim
