This digital thermometer offers a sleek design and is easy to use, making it a handy tool for cooking enthusiasts. However, many guests have experienced issues with its durability, particularly with the plastic parts and probe, which tend to break after limited use. While it provides accurate readings when functional, the frequent reports of breakage and battery issues suggest it may not be the most reliable choice for long-term use.

Do not buy this. The thermometer broke apart after only a few normal uses. Also seemed to provide inaccurate temp readings.
Broke quickly

I gave one to my son because we liked ours. Which we have had for years. His broke after a few uses. Must have cheapened the product.

The wiring became exposed after months of usage. Fwiw we were using it multiple times a day to measure the temp of our baby’s milk bottles.

Product broke after second time using it. The probe came off the wire and the product is no longer functional. Target should quit carrying this product.

I’ve brought this item several times but the quality has seriously reduced. Fell apart after only a month or 2 of very gentle use. Disappointed. Buying a different item this time.

When I washed it with a sponge the entire probe separated from the wiring. I am a senior and not that strong. Poorly made. I only used it 4 times!

Breaks easily, even when being careful opening it. It has snapped in the same spot both times. Went to clean the probe off lightly and it pulled off.

I bought this today and will be returning it tomorrow. The button to turn it off does not work resulting in the whole thing staying on the battery. Many attempts later I finally got it to turn off and put it back in the package to return. Waste of money, time and gas to drive back to the store to get refunded!

Don’t waste your money. First one (metal arm) broke after a few uses. Bought a second one and same thing. Cheaply and poorly made.
