TempPro TempSwift ELITE TP18SW Instant-Read Meat Thermometer — 0.5-Second Read, Foldable Probe

Easy to use. Accurate.

This is a great product. I like it enough to have given these as gifts and keep one in the RV.

This thing has been through the wringer and still works great. It has been through several battery changes and getting dropped in the deep fryer. Only complaint is that the magnets came loose from the back of it, but I feel like it has earned that for working great for over 6 years

Great thermometer fast reading I work in a professional kitchen and it's the best one I've had so far even survives being overheated on top of an oven

This is the second time I have purchased this thermometer. I believe I had the first one for over year before I broke it (I accidentally dropped it in the sink full of water and didn’t notice until the next day). It simple and easy to use. I like the magnets on the side. I keep it on the side of my microwave so it’s always handy

I got this thermometer specifically because it uses AAA batteries, while many other thermometers use disposable button batteries. I have a ton of rechargeables on hand, some of which have been in use for 10+ years, which is a lot more convenient and environment friendly than stocking disposable batteries, so I prefer using rechargeable AAAs.The thermometer itself is great, seems to be pretty accurate to within 1°, and I've been using mine for about 2 years now and it's still going strong. Love the magnets on the back as it allows me to just stick the thermometer on the vent hood above the stove for quick access, and the large LCD display is very bright and easy to read.It does however have one design flaw: When the thermometer detects a low battery, it replaces your temperature reading on the display with "Lo". This becomes very obnoxious because it takes a few seconds for it to return to your temp reading. The "Lo" will continue to replace your reading every several seconds, making the product tedious to use until you replace the battery.This would not be a problem if the "Lo" only appeared when the batteries are ACTUALLY low, but the problem is that they seem to have designed this with only 1.5v AAAs in mind and clearly did not test it with common 1.2v NiMH rechargeable batteries, which is mind boggling. Even when you put in fully charged NiMH batteries, it will still detect it as a low battery, and obnoxiously replace your temperature reading with "Lo" every few seconds. The thermometer itself has no issue running on 1.2v NiMH rechargeables, but it's practically unusable due to the temperature readout constantly being replaced with "Lo".Fortunately, 1.5v Li-Ion AAA rechargeable batteries are a thing, so I started using these instead and the "Lo" problem disappeared.ThermoPro, if you ever read this, maybe make your products compatible with 1.2v rechargeables, or make a low battery indicator off to the side which does not interfere with the temperature reading.

Just received this thermometer which I purchased as a gift. I purchased a thermometer from the same manufacturer a couple of years ago that I really like. It provides extremely quick temperatures and is great for the barbequing I do. It costs over $100 and I am completely happy with the cost considering how much it helps with cooking things perfectly. I agree that cooking without a great thermometer is like driving without a speedometer. You know you are moving and have an idea of how fast you are going but you aren't really sure.I was shocked to see that this $20 thermometer is just as good as the $100 thermometer I bought a while ago except the device itself is superior in construction. It has magnets so it holds to metal. It is smaller and feels better in the hand. Even with its small form, it has a large enough display that is readable for me without reading glasses (I'm in my 60's so almost everything needs reading glasses these days). It is built very well and works great. I was quite surprised at the quality given the low cost.
