Flintronic Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer, High Accuracy, °F/°C, Auto On/Off, Black, Kitchen Thermometer

I recently purchased the Flintronic Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer and have been thoroughly impressed with it so far. The thermometer provides quick and accurate temperature readings, which makes cooking things to perfection so much easier - especially with items now being cooked faster in the air fryer, it’s great to have that piece of mind. The digital display is clear and easy to read, and the device feels sturdy. I particularly appreciate how straightforward it is to use, clean and store. Overall, I would highly recommend this product to anyone who enjoys cooking and wants reliable results every time. I’ve also purchased one for my parents too!

I've only just received it but it seems robust enough to last. - I find the swing-out probe easier to handle than the fixed [straight] thermometer I used to use. - I really do not understand the review that claimed this was "very poor quality". Its design & manufacture seem fine to me. It needs an AAA battery [which is not included]. - I haven't yet managed to find a low battery to test the "LOB" indicator that the instructions mention. It seems to agree with my old [mercury] kitchen thermometer so I assume that means it's correct. - It's default reading is in Celcius so there's no messing about to do. [The instructions tell you how to swap it to Fahrenheit if you need to.] - It is supposedly accurate to whole degrees. That's more than good enough for me. - It also displays points of a degree which is handy for helping you to see when the reading has settled down. [But don't expect that final digit itself to be stable, the thermometer is not that accurate.] - I haven't bothered to run the calibration procedure. [I can only guess but perhaps the complaint in another review about it not calibrating correctly was caused by an incorrect expectation that it would calibrate to within 0.1C rather than the 1C that it is actually capable of.] - The instructions contain a list of 'correct' temperatures for various foods but I haven't bothered checking if the list is correct. It takes 10 seconds to give a settled reading. - It's more or less there [within a degree] after 5 secs. So that's going to be good enough for me in practice. - It takes a minute to settle back down to show the room temperature after use [even if it is shaken or wiped clean]. So that will stop me fussing every few seconds re-checking things unnecessarily. The auto-on/off works. - It turns itself on when you unfold the probe than it turns itself off when you fold the probe back against the body. - It can be a bit awkward using the off button. The auto-on does not work the next time until you manually turn it on once using the button then allow it to turn itself off again by folding the probe back against the body again. --- Hanging it up --- - The magnet is OK and holds the thing firmly enough to cope with a few accidental knocks. - The hole to "Hang in a nail or hook" is also OK. - The supposed hole "used for hanging rope" is poorly positioned and, in my opinion, unusable. Anything thicker than 2mm will foul the probe and anything lose will foul the probe as it is swung out.

The item did the job perfectly, quick and easy to use and read the temperature of food. Unfortunately the item died after 7 months, tried a replacement battery to no avail. As it's a low cost item I would repurchase.

brilliant, a must have for air fryer.

I bought two of these, one for normal kitchen use and one to use to monitor the temperature of salt water being used for water changes in my reef tank. I previously had an identical model which lasted for around 4 years until I dropped it into a bucket of sea water being tested (which did it no good at all but certainly wasn’t the fault of the gadget). It is easy to use with it automatically starting to operate as soon as you unfold the probe and shutting down as the probe is closed. The display is clear and easy to read and can be set to centigrade or Fahrenheit. I liked that it stabilised the temperature readin quite quickly, around three or four seconds. In terms of accuracy I think it is pretty good, the instructions say it is within 1 degree plus or minus which is probably good enough for most uses. As I had 2 arrive at the same time I tested them against each other, the difference between them was around 0.2 degrees (of course that doesn’t mean both gadgets are accurate but it gave me a level of confidence they read very close to each other. I am happy with these so far, I just need to not drop one into a bucket of sea water!

We purchased this twice now over a period of two years. The first snapped at the hinge making it virtually unusable. Because we thought this was our carelessness, we bought the same again. Sadly this one lasted about 18 months before the display stopped working. Up until then, it seemed to show accurate temperatures and I liked the small magnet, allowing me to attach it to me cooker hood when not being used. The printed temperature guide on it is also useful. Shame it didn't last longer. I'm going to spend a little extra this time in the hope that it will last a bit longer.

Works as it should

I have not used it as yet.

O equipamento é bastante robusto e preciso, normalmente uso para temperaturas acima dos 0 graus, mas também lê temperaturas negativas. O tempo de leitura é bastante rápido. Estou satisfeito

Bra att ha med när man står ute och grillar för den är snabb att ta tempen på köttet

Doet het perfect en dat voor die prijs

Utilisé pour la fabrication de cosmétiques. Réglage initial très facile et la température affichée semble cohérente (montée, redroissement, réchauffement) .

Lässt sich auch gut reinigen. Wird für Babymilch genommen. Ist zu empfehlen.
