Good performer - great value Apr 19, 2008 This reasonably priced fork-thermometer is easy and intuitive to use, versatile, quick-responding, and accurate (I tested it against a standard). It has its heat-sensitive element in the tip of only one tine (not documented, but that's where it is) and, knowing that, it can be used to probe and measure the temperature of a wide variety of foods - or other stuff.
Tossed out my expensive model for this Mar 28, 2008 Unlike the Sharper Image one I'd been fighting with for 3 years...this model takes temps quick. Good readable light. Simple design and cooking internal temps on the back. Not complex with readings for every food you could cook and you don't have to burn your arm hair waiting for the temp to come up. Very good product.
Hand wash but why would you expect anything else.
Hand wash only,. and careful when you do. Feb 29, 2008 Only for the meticulous. I bought this as a gift. Unfortunately when it was hand washed (not dishwasher safe) the handle must have gotten wet, because it stopped working.

Too big and slow to be useful Jan 20, 2008 I used this for years, and thought it was pretty good. Then I got a CDN Proaccurate Stainless Digital Thermometer, and realized how wrong I had been.
Never having had an instant-read thermometer before, I thought it was normal to sit there for almost a minute waiting for the temperature to stabilize. Of course, that minute is a big deal if you've taken your steak off the heat and then have to put it back on.
Also, the tines are big, and you have to get a fair amount of them embedded into the meat to get an accurate temperature. You wind up putting big holes in the meat, which then leak a ton of juices. And for thinner steaks, it's hard to navigate in at an angle that lets you get enough of the tines in the middle.
For those reviewers who suggest it's great to have only one utensil: you really don't want to flip steak with a fork anyway. Every time you puncture the steak, you're losing juices. You're much better off with a grill spatula, and a fast thermometer with a small probe.
Doesn't fit what I need. Sep 04, 2007 I wanted it for use in the kitchen - it is way too big and bulky for that purpose. I am not happy with it as it doesn't fit anyplace in my kitchen or in any of my kitchen drawers unless I lay it sideways - then it takes up too much room.
