I use a liquid everyday that needs to be within a specific temperature range. I used to be able to tell with my fingers or wrists if the temp was accurate, but thanks to a condition called Small Fiber Neuropathy, I have been losing the ability to distinguish temperatures in my extremities. After enough frustration over the temp being too hot or too cold too many times, I finally had the idea to try a food thermometer. This device has been SO incredibly helpful, and I’m just disappointed I didn’t think of it sooner.
It seems to be consistently accurate, it’s quick, and it’s very easy to clean. I haven’t used it on food yet, but it has worked wonderfully for liquid so far.
Would highly recommend!

Well built. I like it that they sent an extra battery. Shows care. Also the unit turns out automatically as you open the needle. Clear dial. Overall a great useful purchase. Removes the guess work in undue or over cooking chicken.

Kizen makes two different thermometers, a red one and this black one. I’ve owned a couple of the black ones which work perfectly and decided to mix things up and buy a red one instead. However, the red one is way too slow. It takes several seconds to get a reading. The black one is instantaneous. So, I sent the red one back and got another black one – instantaneous. I’m not sure why they’re different, the description says they’re both instant, but that wasn’t my experience. Also, the probe on the red one is very stiff, it feels like you’re going to break something when you pull it out. Do yourself a favor, get this black one.

This system works well and is easy to operate — once you get the two units to connect. That set-up process is not difficult if you follow the well-written instructions.
The two units are 1) a sensor unit, placed near the grill, has probes to measure food temperatures and 2) a receiver unit, placed near the cook, usually in the kitchen.
There are two probes, one designed for meat and the other for “food,” which seems to mean any food other than meat. The food temps the probes measure appear in real time on the receiver screen.
The system’s best feature is saving both time and steps, and saving time and steps at moments when the cook has to be in two places at once: at the grill and in the kitchen.

This is a really good product! Easy to use and clean, seems to be really accurate, and four years later it’s still working!

Excellent thermometer for the price. Reads quickly and is accurate. Downside, it does not come with a warranty. Mine lasted almost 2 years and then gave an error message of “LLLL” which means the unit probe is bad. Have decided to purchase a similar thermometer with a limited life time warranty for a couple of dollars more in price.

This is a simple, accurate thermometer that instantly gives you the temperature of any food you are cooking. Works great for grilling, or anything! It is a great value and works even better than some of the expensive thermometers that have an app. Wish I had bought this one first before wasting money on the fancy one.

Who can get excited about a meat thermometer, apparently me! Love that it has some basic info about meat temps on the actual item but they also include a card with a full list of meats and temps. Easily turns on just by pulling out the probe. And guess what, you don’t have to toss it into a kitchen drawer where it gets lost, it is magnetized so stick it right to the stove!

Takes the guest work totally out if your meat is cooked to the temperature needed to safely eat. Works efficiently, and I don’t know how I lived without one for so long in my kitchen. Easy to read and works quickly.

This is my 1st digital thermometer purchase and straight out of the box I am pleased. It comes with an “Operators Manual” (short, sweet, & relevant!) including instructions to check the calibration, a handy “Meat Temperature Chart”, one battery installed PLUS a spare, an internal magnet so I can store it someplace convenient (or use the enclosed velcro) but… once I remove the protective film that needs to be peeled off, I am left with a sticky residue that can’t be removed with soapy water (zoom in on the images to see the residue). Protective films that leave residue on items I purchase aren’t necessary and are often rather disappointing because stuff will stick to the glue making the item unable to fully & easily clean. I took 2 stars away for this alone.
