ProfessionaI Meat Thermometer Digital, 3X Faster 0.5 Sec Instant Read, NSF&NIST Certified Accurate to ±0.5°F, 100% Waterproof, Auto-Rotating Bright Display, Auto Wake/Sleep, for Grill/BBQ

Works fast and so easy to read. The waterproof feature makes it so easy to clean. Being able to quickly put it away using the magnet to hang on the refrigerator is excellent. Well made and a good buy!

I am not a chef, but want to know when my food is cooked to the right temperature. I had a couple of the digital "stick" meat thermometers, that both died, possibly from someone submerging them when washing them. They were slow to get to the actual temperate of the meat, and not all that accurate. This one is great, it reads instantly, it was so fast I didn't believe it until I tested it against things of known temperature. It is accurate within spec. The thing is calibrated, and NIST traceable for the that calibration. I was very surprised, I worked in a regulated industry in the past and know what that NIST traceability means. It is not something that you will find for a cheap foreign made thermometer. The thermometer turns on when you open the probe and turns off the instant you close it. This saves battery life, and with the probe stowed, there is no chance of "stabbing" someone with it or the kids getting hurt. And oh, it's magnetic so you can stick it on the oven, or the fridge out of little one's reach.This is a well-designed and build device. It is obvious that the company takes pride in this product. It may cost of slight bit more than others, but it is worth every penny. This will probably last me a lifetime, no planned obsolescence here! Bravo to a company that actually produces a quality product in today's market!

As a professional chef, I need a trusty instant read thermometer everyday. When my old one died I needed a quick replacement. This one was inexpensive so I quick bought it.I’ve used it for 3 weeks now at an insanely busy commercial kitchen and, yeppers, it is fast.My other Chefs Du Parties have nicknamed it the Jitterbug due to its kinda large design and it’s simple functionality-it tells you the temperature and that is all. No timers, no fanciness.And, to be honest as an older chef I appreciate the heck out of the large display that auto rotates and lights up.I would buy this product again.Chef Chris

Nice weight and durable. Appears to be a quality thermometer with accurate readings. Very easy to use! Insert the battery and it was ready to use. Love the large digital reading making it easy to see. Instant temperature. Easy to clean. Very reasonable price. Would highly recommend.

update: next day - After using the thermometer, it's not as fast as I thought because it doesn't give the actual temperature that fast. I takes about 3 seconds to get up to the actual temperature. bummer. -1 starI've got large hands, so a larger thermometer is a nice fit. This one works great and the shake-awake or shake-on or whatever it's called is VERY handy. It's even got a magnet on it so I can keep it on the fridge or the front of the stove to have it at the ready. Just pick it up from where it is and it automatically turns on. I REALLY like that feature. And it's FAST. It does give you a reading in about half a second.I think I know what my sisters are getting for Christmas this year!

This product is amazing and works well and is accurate.

Easy to handle, well built, instant results and very accurate. Just what a thermometer should be!

My last meat thermometer just seemed to be off (different brand) kept cooking dinner and food was not always fully cooked which equaled arguments during dinners. Well this thermometer so far has done a great job, quick and have not had under cooked food 😀 and best of all no arguments during dinner! I love how it's magnetic 🧲 too and sticks to the fridge! Highly recommend this one

This is admittedly larger than other digital thermometers we've had, but I like how solid a grip you can have on it when using it on foods in the oven or on a hot grill. It is instantly responsive, and I like the auto-off feature for when you're doing multiple readings over time, so you don't have to keep cleaning the probe and closing it. It comes back on instantly when you lift it, which is great. You can switch from Cº to Fº at the touch of a button if a recipe calls for one or the other. It’s solidly built from high quality materials. Being able to rinse the whole thing is a plus, given how my cooking technique can sometimes get a little casual. The magnet to attach it to a nearby surface is another plus. All in all, a great cooking tool to have.

I ordered this based on a recommendation from someone I know. I can see why - this thermometer does a good job.Normally I prefer a leave-in thermometer with an external temperature display. So I was reluctant to switch to an instant read, thinking it would leave holes in my meat and wouldn't be as accurate. The first time I used it, the reading was off by 10F easily, and I was very disappointed.Thankfully, I read the instructions and noticed that the unit can be recalibrated. Following the three easy steps I "reset" the thermometer. I tried it a 2nd time and found the temperature was just as accurate as my "old" unit. I've used it a dozen times since with accurate results.What's really great about this is how simple it is to use. To use the probe, simply unfold it from the large, easy to handle unit that includes a large display. To power it on...well, you just did by unfolding the problem. Check the display for the ambient air temperature, then insert the long probe into the meat. It's probably not the best for oven use as it's only 12" long, but that's normal if not better than most instant probes. But I find it more than adequate on the BBQ grill.Uses a AAA battery which means I can use rechargeables instead of disposable coin cells - great.Toss in a backlight for evening grilling, and a nice bottle opener, oh and it's magnetized so it can attach to the side panels on your grill (or the side of your fridge inside). All very thoughtful.In summary this temperature probe covers all the bases and has replaced my perfectly good probe. Even uses one less battery than the old one! Only concern is it really takes 1 to 1.5 seconds for a proper read, not 0.5s. If that's the only flaw, this is an amazing unit. Thank you friend for your recommendation.

The media could not be loaded.  This review evaluates the “Digital Meat Thermometer” made by THERMOMAVENThe product was shipped with no excessive or wasteful packaging. What’s in the box: one (1) digital meat thermometer unit, one (1) AAA alkaline battery, one (1) Philips mini-screwdriver, one (1) calibration certificate, and an owner’s manual.First impressions: The overall quality of the meter unit is very good, with a durable, fire-resistant ABS plastic casing and a large, easy-to-read backlit digital screen. The thermometer folds open/close like a pocket knife; folding its probe into its handle to avoid puncturing injury when not in use. Upon folding it open, the unit automatically turns on and similarly shuts off when folded close. The backlit screen also automatically orientates itself in a right-side-up reading position no matter which side it is turned to! On the back of the unit, there is a screwed-down, hermetically sealed battery box that secures the one (1) AAA battery required to power it (included). The bottom of the unit has a Celsius/Fahrenheit push button switch in the back to accommodate non-metric users. The handle of the unit also has an integrated bottle cap opener which is handy for all those thirsty Grill Masters.The product claims to be IP67 rated which by international standards means that for whatever its purpose or intended market, it can resist exposure to dust and withstand up to 30 minutes of submersion in water up to 40 inches (or one meter) in depth. I did not water test this product, however, it appears that this case will take whatever you throw at it.How does this unit perform? In one word – EXCELLENT! I boiled a pot of salt water and stuck the probe in; it measured 210F which was identically accurate to my other meat thermometer.Since I am evaluating this product as part of the Amazon Vine program, I am limited to a 30-day window to submit a review. To determine long-term meter durability and accuracy, I intend to monitor this product over the next 12 months. Should anything change over this period, I will update this review accordingly.Cost-effectiveness and value: Overall I am very satisfied with the product, it is compact, portable, and easy to use. At a current price of $39.99, it is slightly more expensive than competing meat thermometers, however, it is built far more durable. Therefore I feel that this product is of good value.In summary: the “Digital Meat Thermometer” made by THERMOMAVEN is well made, compact, accurate, and easy to use. It delivers all this at a fair price. I would recommend this product without reservation.Pros 👍:✔ Well made from quality fire-resistant ABS plastic.✔ Basic, easy-to-read backlit digital display.✔ Displays temperature in either °F or °C.✔ Display auto-rotates “right-side-up” for easy reading no matter what orientation.✔ Automatic ON/OFF when the probe is folded OPEN/CLOSE.✔ Auto sleep function after 30s and auto wake upon moving - saves battery.✔ Accurate: NIST-certified with an accuracy within ±0.5°F (±0.3°C).✔ Temperature range -58°F to 572°F (-50°C to 300°C).✔ IP67 water resistant.✔ Convenient built-in mounting hanger, and bottle cap opener.✔ Good price point and value.Cons👎:✘ None!

This review is for the ThermoMaven F1 Turbo 0.5s Instant Read Food Thermometer. The unit came with a single AAA battery, a small phillips screwdriver to install the battery, a certificate of calibration, and a user manual. It has a built-in bottle opener, a F/C button to switch temperature scales and a lock button which locks the temperature readout. Temperature is displayed on its large, backlit digital display. The backlight shuts off after 10 seconds and the display shuts off after 30 seconds. Simply picking up the probe turns both back on. This is a nice feature to help save battery life. The digital display will orient itself to which side of the probe is right side up. Another nice feature. Turning the unit on or off is done by simply extending or retracting the probe. I find the probe is quite stiff to move, so I would suggest opening it by grabbing the probe close to its pivot point rather than the sharp end of the probe. The back of the unit has a built in magnet that allows one to attach the thermometer to a fridge door or a barbeque steel panel. You can also store it on a hook using the hole built into the center of the bottle opener. The F1 Turbo can be calibrated with ice water if ever needed, with instructions of this feature in the user manual. ThermoMaven offers a Lifetime Warranty for this product if you register online within 30 days of purchase. It means No Expiration, No Hassles, Full Coverage, Free Replacements! Another very nice feature.But how does it perform? Great was my experience. It is very fast compared to the other 2 portable thermometers I have. Let me comment on the 0.5 second time. if you have it in cold water and stick it into 200 degree brisket, it will take more than 0.5 seconds. It just makes sense that it takes time to heat the stainless steel probe to change that amount. But if you had 6 chicken breasts on the barbeque, and you were poking each to see if they are ready, it is definitely very close to 0.5 seconds. Actually it seems almost instant. This is because the probe is already close to the temperature being measured. Just my observation. I don't think you will be disappointed in its measuring speed. This unit feels very robust, and smooth in your hands. It is bright red in colour and not easily misplaced. It's has an IP67 rating for being waterproof, so can take getting rinsed under the tap or being left out in the rain.I highly recommend this quick reading thermometer. I have used it a number of times so far from barbequing sausages and steaks, to oven baking chicken pieces. It works great.

Such an easy way to ensure all the meats on the BBQ are thoroughly cooked through. Every home should have one!
