Outset F804 Stainless-Steel-Cased Steak Thermometers, Set of 4

This product is a joke. Any decent instant-read thermometer needs to be able to be adjusted. Instant-read dial thermometers, because of the nature of their construction, become inaccurate as a result of use. This item is not adjustable, and it sure needs to be. I bought a set of 4 with high hopes. After all, a short instant-read is exactly what you need when cooking steaks. Whenever I buy a new thermo, I test it against my trusty (and exactly accurate) bulb candy thermometer. From a set of 4 I got the following: (1) 40 degrees low, (2) 20 degress low, (1) 1 degree low. I I contacted the manufacturer for comments, they ignored my email. I returned the set to the store where I bought it. Nice idea, sloppy implememtation.

These little thermometers are handy at cookout time. They're well made, register the temperature fairly quickly and are pretty darned accurate. When I use these my steak is done just the way I like it every time (very pink, not bloody). If they could be left in the meat during the cooking time they would get five stars.

Bottom line, they do exactly what they are supposed to do!

The first time I used these thermometers, they worked sort of OK. The temp said the filet mignon was medium. I let the steaks rest a little and yet when I served them to my guests, the steaks were rare. The next time I used the thermometers it was on a delmonico steak. The temperature never registered correctly. The steak was well done by the time the arrow started to move on the thermometer at all. I never used the others for pork or chicken; I threw both sets of thermometers out. Yes, I had to buy 2 sets in order to be able to have enough for 4 steaks. Quite an expensive mistake (no pun inteneded). I would NOT recommend this product. Save your money and buy one universal meat thermometer that will register instantly.

purchased in a high end kitchen store, first mistake. Tried for first time on steaks, both thermometers went right to 160 lingered there a few seconds, spun counterclockwise and would not register a temp after that. the 160 was not accurate, the steaks were bloody raw inside.

Now i have to try to return where purchssed on a weekend trip--miles away. could kick myself.....
