great kitchen gadget
love this!
Easy to use, I love the audible alarm for time and pre-set temp
Fool me twice, shame on me
I've owned two of these Polder thermometers. Both times they've started out working fine, but within a year, they begin to provide erratic readings. It figures that even Cook's Illustrated could only give a "recommended with reservations" rating to this model and its identical Taylor brand counterpart.
(I also didn't like that the timer could only be adjusted in one-minute increments, so I still have to rely on my microwave's timer.)
I'd be happy to pay more for a more durable, more reliable probe thermometer -- still looking!

Bought this item after watching Alton Brown on Food Network cooking with one on their Thanksgiving Special and reading the reviews of others on Amazon. No kitchen should be with out one and this particular one with its temperature alarm is superb.
No switch to turn of thermometer for storage.
I bought my thermometer for help when cooking meat in the oven. It does everything as advertised, however I can't seem to find a switch to turn the thing off when I want to store it. To shut it off I have to take the battery out of it and store the instrument that way. That is a real pain when you have to then keep track of the thermometer the probe and wire and a little loose rolling battery. Then when you want to use it again you have to take the time to pull the battery cover that is somewhat difficult to remove, replace the battery and then replace the battery cover. The thermometer is handy to have when cooking but a pain in the A__ to store!! It is just one of those poorly designed and cheaply made Chinese manufactured things that would have been much better built in the good old USA!!
Pathetic
Bought this on sale, and glad I didn't pay full price. I used a few times and the metal cable burned nearly through (so now it's hanging by a few threads). After a few uses it stopped beeping, so now I need to run over every few minutes to check if food has reached proper temp. Also, it's not that easy to set the temp buttons. I'll stick with my digital instant-read one.
