ThermoPro TP16 Digital Kitchen Meat Thermometer with Stainless Steel Long Food Temperature Probe for Liquids, Oven, Smoker, BBQ, Candy, Oil, Deep Frying Cooking Thermometer with Timer Alarm

Easy and speedy to set up and use, the thermometer has various functions as described. Having tried the various modes, I have found that it reliable and efficient. I really like the fact that you can set a target temperature at which the thermometer sounds an audible signal—loud enough for a busy kitchen. This has been particularly useful when preparing marmalades and helps confirm the wrinkle test.The magnetic function is sometimes useful as it can be used to keep the thermometer off of the work surface, and if on the cooker splashback, the display is really easy to read 'hands free'.I had one of these for several years, so good durability. It was the probe which broke first.

Works very well. I'm using it mainly for double cooking chips. It responds quickly in 10 seconds or less. The large LCD display makes it easy to read. The magnet for sticking it to the fridge or cooker is a nice touch and the long lead for the probe means it can stay there while in use. There's also a flip out stand so that you can put it on the counter top if you prefer. The unit seems to be well built though I guess only time will tell for that.I have only one real issue although it's a minor one: when your food reaches the pre-set temperature the only way to stop the beeping is to either whack the temperature up to way above your pre-set or turn it off. I do the former because I want to keep an eye on the temperature after it's got where I want it to. It's not a deal-breaker by any means but just mildly annoying.

It works very well and arrived promptly. I tested the probe in boiling water and it read 100 degrees celsius so it is very accurate. The thermometer is easy to use and understand, however please read the instructions thoroughly to make sure you don't do anything that could damage it; for example, the stainless steel probe should not be completely submerged in water as the junction between the probe and the wire is not waterproof.The thermometer is excellent as you can leave the probe in the meat in the oven as it cooks, eliminating the need to open the oven door which would result in fluctuations in temperature. This also reduced your risk of burns, and, since a loud alarm will go off when the required temperature is reached, you can pretty much forget about it until then. You can now eat your meat knowing that it is at a safe temperature, and you will not have to overcook the meat 'just in case' which often results in a dry and unappetising meal.Some minor problems I noticed: the magnet is useful, but is a bit weak, and so the thermometer tends to wobble around when stuck to the outside of the oven. The flip out counter stand on the back isn't that much help either.Despite these issues, the thermometer is still a necessery piece of kit in my kitchen and has a wide variety of uses.

So I was presented with a boneless leg of venison off my mate King Charles estate, never cooked venison before but knew it has to be cooked slow and careful. Decided to purchase this product. Really easy to use and does the job to perfection. The venison was roasted perfectly, everyone commented how succulent and tender the meat was, even the mother in law. So yes, excellent product and really does work. 10/10.

Works as it should. Display is clear and easy to read. When I got mine, I got the dreaded 'HHH' error message when I turned it on. Very prompt Customer Service. It turns out the probe jack is quite a tight fit in the device, and I had to simply push all the way in until I got a reassuring 'click'. Works fine now.Minor inconveniences:Turning on the ThermoPro, the display defaults to a preset of 100˚C. Most of the time I use it to measure the temperature of my oven, not the target meat temperature. I have to manually adjust each time.The magnet is strong enough to site the ThermoPro on a vertical metal surface, so I was expecting to place it out of the way on a steel splashback. The probe cable isn't long enough for this, so it now lives on my oven's front panel. I have to be mindful when opening the oven door.Easy enough to adapt to.

Great price. Only used once but worked well

I had an old battery operated stick pin type thermometer but it had given up after many years of use. Looked around on Amazon to see what there was and came across this one. It had some great reviews with little negatives so though why not - and took the plunge.Yes it is relatively easy to use right out the box - just plug in the thermo-probe, switch on and remove the point guard (that is a bonus for me) and use.To me it seems very accurate and has done me a good few temp checks on roast meats like beef, pork and lamb, etc. Chicken is the one to watch out for so always ensure several checks in fleshy parts of the meat.Now the great thing about this unit is the magnet on the back - allowing you to stick to the front of the oven (if a metal case) so you don't have that awkward moment that when you pull on the probe to extend it the unit comes flying off the worktop.Also another great thing is the pre-programmed temps setting for chicken, beef (3 setting for rare, med and well) fish, pork, etc. Yes you can set your own temperature should you wish to do so, but these are fine.The construction of the unit seem pretty robust and the added strength in the cable for the probe (metal) is something that feels like it will last - you can even keep the probe in the meat and shut the oven door and see the temperatures change until you get your desired internal temperature.The added bonus if you do want it is the timer facility - so even if not using the probe you can set a time and know when to remove that oven-based food item you are cooking. That said I generally use my phone. But, hey... it's an added thing.Overall a good unit for the price - very reasonable.
