Lavatools Javelin® PRO Duo Ultra-Fast 1-Second Professional Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer for Grill and Cooking, Auto-Rotating Backlit Display, IP65 Water Resistant, NSF Certified – Olive

It works very well - but it is a bit slow. Not super slow - but for this price I rather like to have an instant read thermometer showing me the temperature... instantly.Also: changing it from Fahrenheit to Centigrade is awkward to say the least (in the battery area).Overall nice.

As a late 20-something on a tight budget, I’ve tried a bunch of less expensive thermometers over the years & at various relatives homes, but finally got frustrated with their shakey accuracy and/or how quickly they break. After this one, I’ll never look back! This is 100% worth the price point. And it rivals the instant thermometers I used in professional sensory testing kitchens in college.Mine has been working perfectly for almost a year now, and it’s become my go-to housewarming gift for all my friends.I was a little worried that it was only described as “water-resistant,” since I’m definitely not the neatest cook. But I’ve rinsed the full base of mine under running water at least a few times now (only times it was really sticky!), and can confirm the display didn’t get all water-logged or foggy like i was worried about! Normally, i do just wipe down the probe portion with soapy water.The only criticism I have is that the magnet isn’t super strong, so it doesn’t stick to my fridge without sliding down when the door is opened. (It would probably stick to a metal grill though). I didn’t take off any starts because I don’t really care about to the magnet, (it was easily fixed by hanging it on a Command hook instead), but just a heads up for those who are really interested in that feature.Seriously though, if your hesitating between this and a cheaper model, just get this one. You won’t be disappointed and it will last much longer!

Works great. I bought this for cooking outdoors. Fits in your pocket and so easy to use.

I work in a professional kitchen and this is by far the best, quickest and easiest prob I’ve ever come across hands down defiantly worth the price!

good item, just a bit slow if u work fast.

An amazing and indispensable BBQ gadget for any backyard chef who knows that perfect doneness punctuates your skill. Recently deboned a leg of lamb and one side was nearly a 1/2" thicker than other. Not a problem because my guest's preferences ranged from a 125 degree ruby red center to a 150 medium well slice. Everybody got their want with a couple of accurate temp based turns and heat zone repositionings.It's also used in tandem with my wireless temp probe in the smoker. Perfect prime rib, turkey and pork roast everytime. The prob stays in from the beginning and allows hours to pass, while away from the grill, without interrupting smoking cycles. As temperature nears the perfect zone this sweet finisher lets you fine tune the final result with amazingly accurate and instant degree-by-degree monitoring in any part of your tasty beast.No more need to ruin your perfect steak or bird with a microwave finisher - perfect temp and doneness every time. Small investment to guarantee all your backyard gourmet adventures have a happy ending.
