Review on 🌑️ Wireless Digital Meat Thermometer with 4 Probes, Extended 300ft Range, Large LCD Backlit Screen, Remote Cooking Food Thermometer Ideal for BBQ, Grill, Steak, Turkey, Oven by Derrick Shaw

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cordless is a bit misleading

I decided to review this product for Revain because some of my recipes require precise temperatures to be successful. In this example, I cooked two meatloafs. The recipe I made called for an internal temperature of 145F. I put a sensor in each and I was able to see that one meatloaf was consistently 5 degrees higher than the other, possibly due to the fact that my oven doesn't have a fan and might only be hotter on one side. After removing the meatloaf from the oven, watch the temperature rise as the heat evens out between the outside and the inside (warmer on the inside and colder on the outside). Everything worked and I was able to double the power with 4 included probes. With that said, let's list the pros and cons. Here's what I like about it: - 4 sensors - Target can be set by timer, temperature reached, by type of food being prepared (some may disagree with temperature settings for some food) - Sensors are powered by batteries (included) - You can step away with monitor in pocket for up to 300ft outdoors (e.g. BBQ) - price is fair - sensors are easy to clean What I don't like: it can magnetically attach to your oven or just snap on top of it. There is thus a wireless connection between the device to which the sensors are connected and the final control monitor, which you can carry in your pocket. In truth, I was surprised to see such a low price for a true wireless kit. It turns out that the price is justified as the probes need a cable to work.- As I warned above, when setting the probe according to the type of meat, the temperature reached may be too high. Thanks to improvements in food control, pork and poultry can now be cooked at lower temperatures than used here, resulting in tender cooked dishes. Just look at the quality of the products you buy to determine the temperature settings that are safe for you. Conclusion: I'm satisfied with this set, but still deduct a star because of the semi-wireless equipment. The probes are not fully wireless, I think I've said it too many times :) 4 stars.
