Review on ๐ŸŒก๏ธ MASTERCOOL Blue Infrared and Contact Thermometer 52226 by Gina Abbott

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Worked fine for two weeks then sensor was completely uncalibrated

I work on a broiler station in a busy restaurant. I wanted a combo IR/probe thermal sensor because I found the apps useful. Checking the temperature of my soups, which heat up quickly on a steam table, and checking the temperature of a steak with the same tool seemed useful and pretty damn cool. Unfortunately, although the price for this device is nice, after two weeks in the kitchen the probe became completely uncalibrated. It was rejected in almost 20 degrees F, resulting in a few double chops being rarely returned. Since there was no way to calibrate it, the result was thirty-dollar junk. If you are in the business I warn you: DO NOT BUY!

Pros
  • Like all others so far
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
