3.0 out of 5 stars Good when it works, August 28, 2010

I bought this for my wife about a year ago. It worked great until it appeared that the battery died. I replaced the battery, and now the symptoms are similar to before the battery died. I think it didn't really die, the button stopped working! Banging the unit (not recommended of course) seems to get it to work; taking the battery out like another reviewer said seems to work until it goes to sleep again.

Other than that...the product is easy to use, clean, clear display, simple, clear buttons. The battery is inexplicably difficult to replace.

I have 2 of these and neither of them will turn on or off using the button. I actually have to remove the battery. It will read the temperature, but it will continue to beep and does not shut off.

I believe I've had this thing less than a year. I'm having trouble with the On/Off button. I would like to easily turn it on when I want to use it and turn it off to save the battery when I'm done, but this has quickly become near impossible.
