Customer Response

didin't last long
i cook constantly, i used this probably weekly on average for about six months, tonight it gave out a high-pitched squeak and went blank, so in the trash it goes. while it lived, it worked reasonably well, although the LCD display always gave me problems. i liked that you can set a max temperature and an alarm went off when the temperature was reached, saved me from setting the stove timer and then constantly checking the temperature of the meat. and, having read many of the reviews of this product on amazon, i was extremely careful to wash the probe only and usually just the tip, ensuring no water ever got into the cord or the device. i will not buy polder brand again.

Good timer/thermometer, not for all applications
Overall I like this thermometer/timer; the display is large and tilts, it has magnets to stick to the stove, oven, or microwave, and the buzzer is loud enough to let me know things are done when I'm outside or in the basement. Even though I've only had it for less than a year, I've had to replace the probe because the cable melted when it touched the metal handle on my toaster oven. The instructions say that you should not leave the probe in the over with a temp over 400, but be especially careful where the probe leaves the oven. If they offered it, I would definitely pay for some type of probe with a flexible metal sheathing so it could stand the metal door handle and heat over 400 degrees.

junk
Bought this a few months ago, used for the first time on a pork loin in my "Big Easy" cooker. After 10 minutes temperature reading shot up to "hi" and stayed that way, even after putting the probe in water. Battery was new and checked out fine. I suspect faulty cable, cable jacket seems like a poor choice for hot application. Just another foreign made piece of crap.

Cable Problems
I have used Polder Thermometers for years. Bought 2 new ones in 2009 and they came with the new plastic covered cables. This cable is just plain junk. Now I am stuck with 2 thermometers with defective cables. Do not buy one unless it has the older woven steel cover.

didn't last
I owned this for less than one year and now it stopped working, everytime when i connect the probe, it will read "Hi" temp. not interested in buying another probe since i don't know if the probe is not working or the thermometer is broken. Mom bought a cheapie one at lowes and cheaper than amazon and it's still working fine!
