I purchased these for my husband after his last pair broke. It works very well and is very well designed. One thing I want to point out on these is that the prongs are one solid piece. With hubbie's old pair, the tips of the prongs were a second piece and they eventually broke off.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT backlit, July 6, 2010

Although the description on Amazon says that the display is backlit, it is not: I ordered this item only to discover that it is not indeed backlit (confirmed by the packaging, manual and on the manufacturer's website), but also that at 11" it's considerably shorter than most thermometer forks, which will likely lead to some very hot fingers over the grill.

I'd suggest looking at the same company's model DTF212 CDN TempFork Thermometer (also available on Amazon), which is only a little more at $19, but is almost twice as long and does have a backlit display, along with a bunch of other features that may come in handy.

1.0 out of 5 stars Shoddy construction, December 29, 2009

This review is from: CDN DBBQ212 Digital Thermometer BBQ Fork (Kitchen)

Up until just recently I had been using a Sharper Image All-in-One Grill Fork which I liked very much. Unfortunately it was damaged beyond repair when it was accidentally immersed in water so I purchased a CDN DBBQ212 Digital Thermometer BBQ Fork as a replacement. Right out of the package the construction appeared to be a bit dodgy, but I was willing to give it a shot based on the reasonable price. As soon as the "on" button was depressed, my suspicions were confirmed. It didn't work, or at least, not the way it was supposed to. Several lines that make up the 3 digit characters were not working, making it almost impossible to tell the difference between the numbers 8, 3 and 0, 5, and 6, or 7 and 9. The only reason these forks exists is to give accurate cooking temperatures, and if you can't tell the difference between 185° and 135°, what's the point? Also, even though the only button is labeled "on/off" it only appears to turn the digital display on; the off function doesn't work. After several days of looking at the crippled digital display I pulled the batteries to put it out of its misery.
