Not for the Grill! June 26, 2008
0 out of 3 found this review helpful

I ordered the similar Polder Classic thermometer/timer (the same unit as this except for the color) based on the strength of the positive reviews. It is an excellent timer, functionally very easy and intuitive to use. I even checked the accuracy of the temperature probe prior to use, and it was very good (read 32 degrees exactly; boiling was 2 degrees low--really quite good for an inexpensive device!) However, despite being very careful about routing the temperature probe cord away from the grill grates and up/away from the flames, the probe immediately died when I tried to use it on some thick steaks. I assume the heat (550 degrees inside the grill) was too much for it. I don't know how others got it to work (some did, some did not)--perhaps it is poor quality control, and some probes are OK, but this one is going back....

Just what I was hoping for when I bought it. The ability to monitor the temperature accurately while it's in the oven--without having to open the door all of the time. Purchsed for prime-rib, used for a variety of other items. :)

didnt work in our bbq June 9, 2008
I bought this for our bbq and it didn't work from the start - used it on hamburgers - temp reading would show as being above the 160F target temp when the meat was red inside - sent it back and Amazon refunded with no probs - will probably try the forks with thermometer next time.

So far so good. June 5, 2008
When I received it, I verified it was properly calibrated prior to first use. I have only used it 3 times so far, once on the grill and twice on the smoker. It has worked perfectly everytime. As long as it holds up for the long haul, it will be money well spent.

gave this to my wife for christmas... here I am now, 5 months later and guess what? did you know that a glass of icewater (1/2 ice, 1/2 cold water, sitting on the counter for 5 minutes or so) reads in as 120+ degrees!!! (what are we taking readings in Kelvin now? even that doesn't work though)

after only 4 uses, it now reads 90-something degrees too HIGH. warranty dead, probe worthless, only part that still works is the timer.

in summary: AVOID POLDER
