Pros & Cons
Pros
This meat thermometer is compact, lightweight, and accurate. It's water resistant (run water over it safely, but don't immerse it) its backlit display has large digits which makes it easier to read and use for outdoor grilling at night.
Cons
These were supposed to be a modern upgrade. Instead they're just a huge disappointment. Accuracy is questionable. What's the point, really, sending out units without even the simplest testing?
Mah aaa battery is dead in about a week in the drawer. Even when turned off, it drains the battery. Only displays lll as an error code even after multiple attempts to reset.
Pay an xtra buck or 2 for a decent thermometer. Do not waste your money. I kinda want $20 on steak compensated.

I am a longtime user of the categorydefining thermapen and thermapen one instantread thermometers but they are expensive and newer brands like thermapro have been flooding the market with new and highlyrated instantread models at a fraction of the price
