Editorial Review: Product Description: This is the original Super-Fast Thermapen in the color red. Originally designed for professional users, the Super-Fast Thermapen is chosen by restaurant chains, health inspectors, quality managers and chefs all over the world. The clever pocket design replaces more costly and bulky handheld thermometers while using the same professional thermocouple technology. The Super-Fast Thermapen displays actual internal food or liquid temperatures in only 3 or 4 seconds. Other thermometers make you wait another 20 seconds or more to catch up to the Thermapen. That's a huge difference in a fast paced commercial kitchen or when you're over a hot grill. If you're cooking an expensive cut of meat you want a perfect outcome. You don't want a slow temperature reading that might be misinterpreted and your meat overcooked. A must-have for the serious cook, restaurants or professional chef. So easy to use! The instrument is switched on by unfolding the probe whereby the display illuminates. Folding the probe back will turn off the unit. The Thermapen will shut itself off automatically after a few minutes if left on. When using, the very tip should be immersed or penetrated to at least 1/8 inch. The plastic housing it not waterproof, so care should be taken when cleaning. It comes with a battery so you can use immediately. Ask about the protective vinyl wallet case or the leather case, sold separately. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Well worth itHard to add anything to the other reviews. Fast, convenient, accurate and easy to clean. Expensive but worth it! Rating: - Worth every penny: a fast thermometer you can TRUSTWhen you buy this, you are paying for two things: Speed and Trustworthiness. I've spent nearly as much as I did on my thermapen on other thermometers priced between $5 and $50. None of them have read as fast or as reliably as the thermapen. If you have a cheap thermometer that isn't NSF certified, you will find yourself often second-guessing it. "Hmm... that reading seems a bit off... I'll probably keep this in a little longer" - but with the Thermapen you can trust it ... Read More Rating: - Exceeds ExpectationsWe grill almost every weekend in the Summer and in the past have served a lot of "grilled food gone bad," that is over and under done burgers, steaks, and pork before we were convinced to get a thermometer. We eventually learned that knowing internal temperature is imperative to quality grilling and getting that information as quickly as possible when the grill lid is off is essential. We purchased the Thermapen after having owned several less expensive digital "instant read" thermometers. ... Read More Rating: - Expensive - but well worth the priceThis thermometer is well more than twice the price of others so I resisted buying one for years. But after finally succumbing, I can say it is well worth the price. The near-instant reading is very satisfying and gives you the opportunity to probe several sites in, say, a whole chicken. My only suggestion is that they offer a left-handed model - invariably I deploy it initially with my left hand only to discover (yet again) that the display is on the bottom. Rating: - Must haveIf you're serious about cooking you must have one of these in your kitchen. I'm very serious about BBQ and grilling and after reading many recommendations for these on the BBQ Forum I bought one of these a year ago. No more guesswork, no more waiting 30 seconds or more for the thermometer to stabilize, just near instant completely accurate temps. I can't recommend it highly enough. Don't get it wet or handle it roughly and it will last for years. |
