Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of ProAccurate Thermometer
Customer Review: Excellent Thermometer
Summary: 5 Stars
Other recommendations prompted the purchase and the thermometer lived up to expectation. The display is easy to read and simple to calibrate. Quickly learned that my refrigerator was not cooling correctly and thus needed a new compressor! (The cheap stick-on refrigerator thermostat that I was using as a monitor turned out to be reading 3 degrees too low.) Having an easy way to check food temps and storage temps has already proved to be a great health benefit. I join the others who highly recommend this fine product.Customer Review: Great inexpensive meat thermometer
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this thermometer for the quick BBQ checks that I do with steaks, chops, etc. I bought it because of two reasons: Its rugged case and because it can be calibrated. The ability to stick the tip into a glass of icewater and push a button to set it at 32 degrees give me a lot of confidence that what I see is what I get. So often, when I buy inexpensive tools, I'm never sure that they are as accurate as I thought. This one goes a long way towards giving me that assurance. It's a good tool that meets my needs.Customer Review: You get what you pay for, and thats great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this for low and slow bbqing and I like it straightforward design. It doesn't light up or, beep, or email you, but it has more functions than I would use. The factory calibration was within .3 degrees farenheit, so I left it alone. It gave fast readings, and was easy to use. It also has a protective plastic holder which has the doneness for various meats printed on it, in case you forget. I am very happy with this purchase, and feel it was a good value. Not a bargain, but certainly not a disappointment.Customer Review: NOT dishwasher safe
Summary: 1 Stars
Contrary to Amazon's description, this is not dishwasher safe. Nowhere on the package does it say it is dishwasher safe, but I ran it through the dishwasher anyway, thinking Amazon would know. I loaded it correctly in the flatware tray with nothing else able to bump it during the dishwasher cycle. The glass cracked. It may be a good thermometer - and it is not the manufacturer's fault Amazon advertised it misleadingly - but I chose it based on the dishwasher safe claim, so I will be sending it back.Customer Review: it broke when we took it out of the box
Summary: 1 Stars
We were excited about this product , and had read many positive reviews about its performance. But we never got a chance to see if it worked because when we took it out of the box to check it out, we put it into its pocket clip cover,and when we tried to take it back out, the head came off, exposing the wires, and all. It just broke into 2 pieces! I am returning it, and unable to decide if I want to replace it with the same thing, or try something totally different. What a hassle!
