We bought this thermometer/timer to replace an older Polder we'd had for many years. The original was still working but had developed two problems (the plastic screen over the display would fall off until we glued it back in place and the display no longer stood upright) so we decided it was time for a replacement. This is the identical, older version of the thermometer/timer with the braided cable which we wanted because I'd read that some folks have had problems with the newer style cable. Both the thermometer and timer work well. The buzzer is loud (and beeps as you set each minute and hour which can be annoying for some) but it's a classic, workhorse and I'm glad we found the old style. I would have liked an on-off switch but that's a relatively minor problem.

Temperature went from 50 to HI in less than a minute. Defective. Also doesn’t have preset meats to choose from. Poor quality and features.

This is my second one of this item, due to my own fault. I accidentally cut the electrical cord last time I baked a turkey. The product is excellent and makes Thanksgiving turkeys foolproof!

This unit is the best I have ever had. It is very accurate and every function you want for oven use. Hats off to POLDER for a state of the art device. Gary Saltsgaver

Basically the thermometer is good. I am using couple of them in the last 10 years or so. The product has two significant flaws: 1. the plastic that holds the thermometer in raised position always wears very fast, leaving it flimsy. 2. the temperature probe tends to fail after a year or two, especially when the electronic cord goes into the metallic part exposed to steam (which is not a rare case when one cooks...)
