2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't work for me, August 24, 2009

This review is from: CDN Audio Visual Refrigerator Freezer Alarm (Kitchen)

The thermometer and probe seem to be well made but it didn't work very well with my upright freezer. As others mentioned, the alarm is not loud enough unless you're fairly close to the unit but the biggest problem is the probe wire. It is round, about 2 mm in diameter and my freezer door will not seal tightly around it. Within 2 days, my manual defrost freezer had a block of ice forming where the wire came through the seal due to humid air leakage. I've seen other units that use thinner flat wire which I suspect would work better.

3.0 out of 5 stars Audible alarm needs to be louder..., April 10, 2008

The unit seems well made, for the price and the display is easy to read from a small distance. The only thing that needs improvement is the volume of the alarm. It is about as loud as a digital wrist watch alarm. You have to be in the same room as the unit to hear the alarm.

My freezer is in my basement and I would never hear the alarm from up stairs.

BTW, I have perfect hearing.

Great unit, but the alarm is wimpy. you would never hear it on the second floor of a home if needed. I modified the two CDN units I bought to make them louder. I can now hear them anywere in our home. I may publish this Modification in MAKE magazine if there is any interest.
