2.0 out of 5 stars Function is great, rubber probe connection broke twice for me., May 5, 2009
This review is from: Maverick Voice Alert Anticipation Digital Thermometer (Kitchen)
I really like the functionality of the thermometer. Easy to program. Much better than some of the other thermometers that I have had, BUT the "cord / wire " breaks too easily. I have now bought two of these thermometers, I am extremely careful with the probe and especially careful not to put any pressure or bending at the wired end of the probe but both have fractured at this site.

I have other thermometers that I do not like as well functionally and they have a wired mess over the cord or a protective cover at the site where the probe ends and the wire begins. These have lasted forever. AND you cannot use a probe from a different thermometer. They are not interchangeable.

I would give this a 10 star if they coukld fix their probe/wire connection problem.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works reasonably well, October 22, 2010

This review is from: Maverick Voice Alert Anticipation Digital Thermometer (Kitchen)
I've used this for about a year, both in the oven and BBQ. The alert voice is fun and reasonably loud. I can't hear it outside if I'm inside, but indoors it can be easily heard. There's a nice option to change from "alert voice" to "alert beep" if you get tired of "10 MINUTES UNTIL READY".

There are a couple of problems with it:
First, if you use it in a BBQ, the probe is easily damaged if it is exposed to direct flames. Be careful to place the cord from the probe over a part of the grill that will not flare up. Replacement probes are available from Maverick (you can get 2 for $20 with shipping).

Next, the probe design allows ambient heat to affect the temperature reading. If too much of the probe is exposed outside of the food, the surrounding air will raise the reported temperature by 10-20 degrees. Insert the probe as deep as possible.

Back when I bought this, the probe had a faulty design. The point where the probe attaches to the cord... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Comes out perfect every time, February 12, 2011
This review is from: Maverick Voice Alert Anticipation Digital Thermometer (Kitchen)
All I'll say is this product for this price is awesome. Every time whether I've cooked poultry, beef, pork - it comes out perfect. The voice alerts indicating when to baste, turn, done, etc. are awesome. Every time the meat came out juicy. Poultry and beef doesn't allow anything but well done but beef and veal allows rare, medium and well done settings. I've used in outdoor grill and indoor oven, all works. There are 2 probes given 1 which is insulated and 1 which is silicon. Battery life's pretty good too. I've used this about 40 times the probes did not break.
