Great promise, terrible results, September 4, 2009
This review is from: Outset F820 Digital 2-Probe Meat Thermometer with Receiver (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this product on sale from a company that was going out of business.
From the beginning there was trouble. The remote receiver didn't ever work.
It took about a week before one of the temperature probes failed giving an "HHH" reading.
Then about a month later the other temperature probe failed in the same way.
Being able to dial in a type of meet and then pick the amount of doneness sounds great but you could just write down the settings. Most temperatures are the same for anything other than well done.
I like the idea of barbecuing with a thermometer but this one is a piece of junk.

great thermometer, September 18, 2011
This review is from: Outset F820 Digital 2-Probe Meat Thermometer with Receiver (Lawn & Patio)
I have used this model for about 3 years or more, it has always worked great. It has been in the rain, dropped, and still works... I use it mainly for smoking meats and wouldn't be without it... I set the probes in the meat, take the receiver inside and it beeps when the meat gets with in 10 degrees of setting.. I may have to order another one soon, as I dropped it again and broke the receiver, It still appears to work though... very good product from my stand point...
