Others say...
"Overly complicated, broken in one month" I have had two previous Polder products that I would recommend. However, the Polder Oven/Meat Thermo-timer I would not recommend. The controls only allow to raise your desired tempurature. Miss you mark, and its a long way to 500 degress and back to the tempurature you want. My older Polder has buttons to raise or lower the desired temp. After about one month, the tempurature gage just went nuts. It read barely (not roiling) boiling water as 260 degrees. No, I was not touching the container etc. So for $30 I got a fancy timer. Purchase either an earlier, simplier model from Polder or a different brand but NOT this one. "Works great until it breaks" Fresh off the shelf, when it still works, this does exactly what you would want it to. Stick it in a turkey or rib roast and cook till the moment of perfection. Unfortunately you'll be lucky to get a few meals out of it before the probe breaks. After that it shows 90 degrees Fahrenheit at room temperature and flashes 500 at the first sign of actual heat. Replacement probes cost almost as much as the entire unit. I'll admit I'm dumb enough to have gone through three of these things. Save yourself the trouble. "Meat Thermometer, Polder Dual Sensor" This is my second Polder, the first being a single sensor that I melted while grill roasting (though I continued using it for two years until the readings became erratic). I use it for monitoring meat temp and covered grill temp (indirect heat only!), oven temp in my gas convection, and oil temp while deep frying. It has performed admirably. There is a one or two degree discrepancy between the two sensors at room temp but it seems accurate nonetheless. I am aware of complaints concerning the probe, but I have not experienced that problem with either of my Polders. "Does not last" I bought this in late October in anticipation for Thanksgiving. During that time, it was used successfully only once. Three days before turkey day, I attempted to use it for a second time. It was broken. The oven temp channel seems to work, but the meat temp was reading 300-315F. It seems like the thermocouple was shorted out. The bad news: A replacement probe = $20 I would recommend the Taylor model with the silicon probe cable. The silicon will last longer than the braided cable. "Use it all the time" It just works. Took me a little time learning the buttons, but after that I love it

What our customer's say! "Bought Two, both work great.", My husband and I bought two of these years ago. We kept one and gave the other to my parents. Both have worked wonderfully over the years. Anytime I make steak in the oven or cook the turkey, the probe works great. I had another Polder thermometer prior to this that could only tolerate temps up to the high 300s. It died after one use, but the oven got really hot and I think it just busted the probe. It's a shame to see so many people complaining of them breaking. Maybe I just got lucky. "Tastes great, Less Filling....oh, wait...wrong product...lol", Works great, don't know how I ever got along without it. Bought it for use with a propane smoker. "Don't buy this one & thanks to all who wrote", Thanks to all who wrote about it being unreliable & breaking fairly quickly. We almost ordered this remembering that we had one a long time ago - FORGETTING that we did not have it long. Appreciate it & don't buy this one! "stopped working after only a few uses!", Though it worked well on a few occasions, it stopped giving correct readings after just a matter of months. I wasn't sure I needed to spend $50 or so on a probe thermometer, but apparently I was wrong, because this $30 "deal" definitely turned out to be a dud. There's a newer Polder model that has received excellent reviews and seems to be a much better buy. "Love it, except the probe keeps going bad!", It works great and we love it, however the probe keeps going bad. We tried a less expensive version, same brand, and are having better results. 
Read this reviews before You buy... "Don't buy it.", I hate to break it to ya, but everyone is right. My Polder Dual Sensor also went crazy after only two months. It was beautiful while it lasted. Can't wait to find something that LASTS. "It's quit working - Unreliable", This thing worked for a while but now it is acting very strangely. I tried to get information from Polder online and found no supporting documentation. My guess is that the probe is the problem, but a replacement probe is $20 and a new complete unit is $25. I guess I will fall back on the old reliable analog manual stick-in-the-meat thermometer and trash the Polder. "Didn't last a month, not user-friendly", This was purchased around Christmas to replace a Williams-Sonoma probe style thermometer that was several years old and finally stopped working. After using this Polder thermo-timer for less than a month, I will be going back to Williams-Sonoma to purchase a replacement for it and will not buy Polder again. First of all, the oven and food temp settings only go up. There are no +/- buttons, if you overshoot the temp you have to hold the button until you cycle all the way through 500+ degrees and back to where you need to be. God forbid you overshoot again, time wasted in the kitchen can cause food to burn or otherwise affect your cooking plans. Second, the probe suddenly started registering 200+ temps while sitting on my kitchen counter after taking it out of my drawer to use. The probe and cable have been cared for as described in the manual, and in no way mistreated. Sorry, but if the ambient room temp registers incorrectly, how am I supposed to trust that it is accurately reporting my cooked food's temp? This is no minor issue, it is a complete failure of the device in less than a month of normal household use. I've read the other reviews and similar problems have occurred for other users so I don't think this is a limited problem or an issue of my not using it correctly. This product is not reliable, and when it comes to determining if your meat is safely cooked to temperature, reliability is crucial. "Please don't waste your money.", I purchased this for use with my smoker, right out of the box, it worked great. The controls are intuitive and well designed. Worked like a charm until the second time around when it started registering inaccurate temperatures. I was extremely careful with the probe, not getting it wet or crushing it. I've tested many thermometers and this is by far the worse. It now registers about 50-80 degrees too hot. "Not So Hot Thermometer", This thermometer has definate problems. It will start flashing different temperature readings throughout your cooking process. You don't know what reading to believe. At that point, I just have to rely on instinct. That's what I was doing prior to purchasing this thermometer. It has worked for me in the past, but the more I use it, the more problems are occurring. I just purchased the Mavericks ET-73. I'm going to give that one a whirl. Stay tuned. |
