SMARTRO ST59 Digital Meat Thermometer for Oven BBQ Grill Kitchen Food Cooking with 1 Probe and Timer, LCD

I bought this product several weeks ago and it works exactly as advertised. Make sure you read the directions so you know how to use it to its full potential. I like the fact that it can be used as a thermometer and a timer. This product gives you the option to choose either your meat and doneness level as well as setting your own custom temperature level for what you are trying to cook. I only found out how to do that by reading the directions thoroughly. Since there are no words on the screen you need to look at the directions to understand what the letters and symbols on the touchscreen do in each different mode. The unit comes with two probes which is great because you now have a back up and most of the units I have purchased previously the probes are usually the issue. The probes come with a long cord which allows you to keep the monitor a little bit further away from the direct heat source. The display on this unit is clear and easy to read with large numbers and changing colors. Don’t be fooled by the inexpensive price this product seems to be a quality unit for a home cook.

I decided to make a Standing Rib Roast for our Christmas Dinner this year - I watched numerous videos and googled numerous recipes looking for the perfect recipe!!! The one thing in common in all the videos and recipes was the use of a probe thermometer to monitor the internal temperature of the roast. I did not have a probe thermometer so Amazon to my rescue!!!! Found this one with excellent reviews, ordered it and it came three days before Christmas!!! Easy to use and did an excellent job - the Standing Rib Roast was amazing!!!!

Consensus: Work horse entree level thermometer that does as advertised. Pros: Cheap Durable Battery hasn't died yet after 5 years of regular usage Touchscreen is responsive Temperatures seem to be accurate (I haven't done any controlled tests with an analog though) Cons: Setting Custom temps and timers require learning through the manual (not that big of a deal) Temperature probe wire will get tangled and mangled over time due to heat/pinching from oven door Moving from off to thermometer to timer might be finicky if you have big fingers/no nails

Very happy with this corded temp probe! With only the tip (about 1.5”) submerged in ice water in an 80 degree F room the thermometer accurately read the water at exactly 32 degrees F after about 10 seconds. It floated between 33 and 34 degrees after about two seconds, a variation that is definitely within acceptable range. I also really like the user friendly UI, it’s very simple and easy to learn. The only negative aspect I can think of is the fact that the touchscreen will undoubtedly be the first thing to fail on the actual unit, and there’s no way to bypass using the screen. Touchscreens are neat, but buttons are more reliable. And this isn’t a big deal as long as the display works and you’ve the correct temp units selected. Only the alarm function will be affected. Tl;dr: came out of the box accurate within a +/- 2 degree range, on the dot of allowed to sit for a minute, no buyers remorse, great purchase!

Used it once loved it. And then I just kinda forgot about it. Pulled it out to use it today and it's broken. Changed the batteries and everything. Sooo disappointed. 10/25/2021 Decided to come back and update my review after receiving outstanding service from the seller. While it's true that it did break after only using it once and it was frustrating and disappointing. After leaving my review I figured it would be a situation we're I would just have to cut my losses and find another one to purchase. Boy, I couldn't have been more wrong. Not only did the seller reach out to me to make it right, they reached to me multiple times. The messages were sent to a email I infrequently check so over the course of several weeks they made multiple attempts to contact me. When I finally did respond back they immediately sent me a replacement free of charge. I make a lot of purchases with Amazon and this purchase was definitely not the first that left me disappointed but the customer service and care I received as a response to that experience was a first. The device itself is fabulous and manufacturing defects do happen so all in all this will be a purchase you will not regret.

I recently purchased this meat thermometer set after our other, one that was purchased specifically for use in a smoker, bit the dust. I guess we used it too much?? lol! Anyway... I really like that this one has two different probes - which is nice, we have a back-up probe for when the other one is dirty or when/if it goes ka-put. We primarily use this in our smoker, but will occasionaly use it in our large toaster oven/convection oven. The thermometer is very easy to use, even for those that aren't very technically inclined (like me!). The thermometer has a touch screen - making it simple, just press directly on the screen (no complicated buttons). And, the numbers on the screen are fairly large. Great for someone with failing eyesight like me (blind as a bat!). There's also a timer - which works great when smoking ribs or baking a whole cornish hen. Now, the first time that I used it, I did double-check the accuracy of the thermometer. I used it in the smoker - and when I pulled the turkey out, I also inserted a regular, non-electronic thermometer. The temperatures matched! Overall, I'm quite pleased with this purchase. It was fairly inexpensive, spot on with temperature, and works well in our smoker!

I bought this meat thermometer in Feb. 2020 and it’s been a less than 6 months and one of the sensor stopped working. Fortunately it did come with two(2) sensors. I do like to BBQ and grill. I would say in average, I used the thermometer maybe once week or so. I could not have used this thermometer more than 50 times. We’ll see how long does the 2nd sensor lasts. If it gives away like the 1st one within 6 months, I probably won’t buy this particular product again and look elsewhere to buy a different meat thermometer. While it was working, this is a decent thermometer; touch screen to change the temperature settings was a bit slow to respond, but it was accurate and easy to use. I realize that I paid barely over $10 for this product, but I wish that the sensor last over 6 months or so. Definitely durability is an issue for this thermometer. So you get what you paid for.

Had a very rough Christmas day when cooking a $100 Prime Rib. Both of my meat thermometers failed. The old fashioned analog was stuck at 350 degrees. The digital proved to be off by as much as 15 degrees when tested in boiling water. I had to go old school and simply feel the meat to determine doneness. It all worked out in the end and had a pretty nice med/med rare roast. The next morning I went straight to Amazon to get a new remote digital thermometer. It arrived today so I wanted to do a quick check to see how accurate it was. I started a pot of boiling water and placed the probe in the water. I used the custom temp feature and set the temp to 214 degrees which will set off an alarm when it's reached. I watched the temp rise until it got to 208. It seemed to hover there for about 30-40 seconds until it reached 210, then about a minute later it finally hit 212. It stayed there for two minutes then dropped to 210 again, then quickly went back to 212. It never exceeded 212 during the 10 minute process. I never expected a $15 thermometer to be this accurate. Great product. Can't wait to test it on a nice roast.

Tried it first time today on some beef fillet. Easy to use, helped me cook a lovely dinner. Would definitely recommend

Excelente opción para las parrilladas. Resiste el calor sin problemas y trae imanes para pegarlos a la tapa o al lateral del tu asador.

Easy to use we love it.

Von mir gibts nur drei Sterne da die Überschrift mit zwei Sonden sehr irreführend ist. Wollte für das Geld eigentlich ein Thermometer mit zwei Mess Anschlüssen. Nur deshalb habe ich das Thermometer gekauft.

Nur eine Sonde mitgeliefert, keine Ersatzsonde geliefert
