ONLY allows preset temps!Date: 2008-06-24 Rating: 2 out of 10I was very disappointed by this product. The reviews I had read mentioned that it has presets -- but so do my car radio and my oven, and I can change the presets around how I like them, or set other options on my own. The reviews did NOT mention the most crucial thing to know:
This thermometer ONLY allows you to use the presets. There are no other options. If you don't like the presets, you're out of luck.
It also plays food nanny -- there's no setting but "well done" for hamburger, for example, and although the setting for rare beef is _correct_, you actually need to take a steak off the grill about 5-10F cooler than that because of carryover heat.
This was a gift for my husband, and both of us are disappointed. It won't get any use at all, and because of the type of packaging, we can't even pack it back up to return it. Big thumbs down, and an annoying waste of money.

BewertungenWire FailureDatum 2008-06-23 Rang: 2 von 10Do not purchase this product! I bought two of these units. The first one the wire was damaged by the poor insulation of the wire, which Amazon gracefully replaced for free. The second unit failed again, at that point I was done with this unit ... didn't feel like badgering Amazon, so I'll keep looking for a better wireless unit.
I thought it was user error, but reading the other user reviews I think it's design error.Nothing professional here.Datum 2008-05-27 Rang: 2 von 10Unfortunately I have to join the crowd who managed to use it only once. Worked nice once and then died, no replacement sensor available. Looks like Weber have stretched their brand a bit too much so it covers also plenty of random junk. Beware also of Disposable Matchless Flame Lighter, it's premium priced cheap plastic imitation of real thing. Real pity, then marketing takes over the company and you can not trust trademark anymore.Same (bad) experience as othersDatum 2008-05-27 Rang: 2 von 10I've never posted before, but thought I should add my .02. My unit worked once --- and never again. Tried the new battery thing as well, to no avail. Grrrr. Very annoying to read that SO many others had similar problems --- and yet the product is still being sold.
Almost a disposable productDatum 2008-05-17 Rang: 2 von 10I had many problems with mine. Some work well but others do not. They are very cheap and the probes fail....some almost immediately.
I initially purchased one of these thermometers for about $25 and it worked just great, so I bought another one and it worked great too. Then I saw them on sale for $4 each and purchased 10 of them, Well the two had initially purchased finally crapped out after many many uses and after a year, so I took a new one out of the package and it didn't work at all and only about 1/2 of them worked out of those ten. Eventually they all crapped out too and I guess I got what I paid for. These thermometers are also marketed under the name Oregon Scientific and Nexxtech in addition to Weber.
It also has preset readings which are set to a maximum of 180 degrees. The things will read higher temps but only after alarming various points prior to hitting the temp settings. I found that real annoying.
Based on my experience with them and other folks on the BBQ forums, I would not purchase one.
