It was great but only lasted for 6 months before it started warping and a year before the metal became detached from the plastic. If you are looking for something cheap for a season and not wanting longevity it works.

Have had it 3 weeks and used a half dozen times. When I turn it on the display will not stay on. Have to hold power button to keep display on. Going in trash and getting a different brand elsewhere. Don't recommend.

Terrible in every way - 4 months ago
Had a problem as soon as I opened it. Discovered some corrosion on the battery terminal. Cleaning it seemed to solve the problem. Two weeks in, the display dimmed to unreadable. Tried two new batteries, but the problem persisted. Returning to Target tomorrow. Incidentally... I would not call it "instant read." It takes ten to fifteen seconds to read close to the actual temperature.
Good basic thermometer

Works great. However this is the second one I bought. You cannot leave it in the heat for more than a minute or so or else the thermometer breaks and will not function again. It’s not heavy duty

This is a must-have for my kitchen. I use it daily. It’s pretty quick and very reliable. Be careful washing it- my first one got too wet and got water in the display, which made it very difficult to read. It still worked though!

Does not seem accurate & it takes FOREVER to read. The temperature slowly ticks up 0.1 degrees at a time & I have to hold it over boiling oil for what feels like 5 minutes. Chicken has been coming out dry

It worked great for a few months and now it has fallen apart even though I take care of it and don’t use it that often. The metal part that you put into food falls off and doesn’t give an accurate reading. Save your money and buy a different brand.
Amazing

Had to buy a new thermometer after our old one broke. I loveeee this thing! I use it every time i cook because i’m afraid to under/over cook and it’s amazing. Lasting a while and if it breaks I would buy it again.

Hi - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
NOT an instant read. Absolute garbage - takes up to a minute to provide temp reading and questionable accuracy. For a true instant read you want Thermopro TP03
