Customer Reviews of CDN Proaccurate Stainless Digital Thermometer
Customer Rating: Summary: Fast, accurate and affordable Comment: I was in the market for a digital thermometer to replace my old cheap analog, and did some comparison browsing. It seems like there won't be a huge difference between models, so it mainly boils down to price and recommendations. This "CDN Proaccurate Stainless Digital Thermometer" and the Thermapen were the names that came up the most often. Lots of people championed the cause of both models, but the CDN Proaccurate came with recommendations from both Cook's Illustrated and The America's Test Kitchen. It was also about a third of the price. So that is what I went with. I have been pleased with my choice, and the CDN Proaccurate has performed exactly as promised. It is accurate, fast, easy to use and reliable. I have used it for temperatures ranging from frozen cocktails to getting yeast started for bread making to hot oil for deep-frying. Every time it has done the job without fail. So you can spend a lot more and get a digital thermometer that doesn't perform any better, but does anyone really want to do that? Go with the CDN Proaccurate! You won't be disappointed. Customer Rating: Summary: Really instant reading temperature Comment: Great item for price, simple and good working, really quickly pick up a temperature, easy to operate. Not giving 5 stars just because of very inconvenient storage case, it absolutely could not be hanged, because of heavy head. Customer Rating: Summary: worked fine two times only Comment: I was really happy with this thermometer. I used it once to make yogurt and once to cook a roast. In neither case did it get dropped, immersed in water or left in the oven. In no way did I mishandle it. And yet, third time was not the charm. It just didn't work anymore. The display still worked but no numbers would appear, not after removing and replacing the battery, nor after trying to recalibrate. Customer Rating: Summary: quick read Comment: Good quality with a quick readout. I have been pleased with this product so far, and the quality seems good enough that is should last for at least a couple of years. Customer Rating: Summary: Works Well Comment: This thermometer reads fast and is accurate. I wish that I had bought it sooner because it takes the guesswork out of meat cooking. More Reviews With Quick Tip fast response readout and self-setting capability to a half degree, this is one exceptionally accurate and efficient digital thermometer. The big digit display has a magnifying lens on a round dial which makes it easy to check temperatures at a glance. It also features a 5-inch stem, premium stainless with shatterproof housing, data hold feature, and auto-off after ten minutes. Measures from -40 to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. The protective sheath also has a unique temperature guide. Recalibrating capability. Choosing Appliance -> Do I need a dishwasher? If you enjoy washing by hand, no! However modern machines use less water, detergent and power than ever before and wash hotter using really powerful cleaners giving a hygienic wash result. You can save around 500 hours a year so it is worth thinking about. If you have a small kitchen or live alone, choose a slimline model. Choosing Appliance -> Built-in Ovens Ease of cleaning is well worth considering at the outset. Stay clean liners resist dirt build-up but pyrolitic cleaning is the ultimate. It burns off all baked-on debris at 500°C so that all you have to do is sweep out the resulting ash. Look out for ovens with a steam cleaning facility, too, and remember that some ovens have removable inner doors that are easy to clean. CDN Proaccurate Stainless Digital Thermometer Useful info -> Dishwashers A concealed heating element reduces the risk of lightweight plastic items such as children's drinking cups melting onto it after becoming dislodged mid-cycle. Limescale build-up is also prevented. Some manufacturers now produce models with the concealed heating element coiled around the water inlet pipe for further energy efficiency. |
