"I was looking for a replacement for my old meat thermometer, and this one fit the bill perfectly. It's inexpensive and effective, plus it has a handy temperature guide right on the front. Food safety is critical, and I highly recommend this!"

"I've been using the Alpha Grillers Instant Read Thermometer for years. My last one lasted seven years before it failed, and I loved it so much that I bought a replacement. The customer service was great—they replaced my old one without any hassle! This new version is even better, with a coin battery and advanced features. I'm so impressed, I plan to gift one!"

"I bought this as a gift for my son, and he says it works great! He's used it several times and finds it accurate and easy to read. He especially loves that he can wash it in the sink and that it folds nicely to fit in the drawer!"

“I am beyond impressed with the ANDAXIN Meat Thermometer! From the moment I took it out of the box, it was clear this thermometer was built for precision and convenience. I love its ultra-fast readings, waterproof design, and backlit LCD screen. It’s a game-changer for anyone who loves to cook, and I highly recommend it!”

“This thermometer has transformed cooking into an easy and enjoyable experience. The instant-read capability is crucial for maintaining the desired doneness of meats. I appreciate the wide temperature range and durable design. It’s an excellent investment for anyone serious about cooking.”

“I find this thermometer very useful and convenient. The helpful chart showing the cooking temperatures for various meats is a nice touch. The large readable numbers make it easy to operate, and it’s simple to fold and store. Overall, I believe it’s worth the price.”

"I recently added this thermometer to my charcoal grill, and it has truly been a game-changer. The stainless steel build feels sturdy and reliable, and the large, clear dial makes it easy for me to monitor temperatures at a glance. Installation was hassle-free, and it fits snugly without any issues."

"All I had to do was drill a hole in the lid of my Weber grill and install the thermometer. It really helps me maintain the right temperature for smoking a brisket for 8 hours using the charcoal snake method. With this and a meat thermometer, I'm always getting great results."

"I tested this thermometer for accuracy in boiling water against my digital thermometer, and I was impressed that it only varied by 5 Degrees F. It even comes with a note stating that it has been calibrated, and I appreciated the screw at the end of the stem for calibration. I have installed it in my Weber kettle, and it works great!"

"I've found this tool to be incredibly helpful for outdoor cooking. I use it on my griddle, and while it's not instant, it eliminates the need for a temp gun. It just works without batteries or plugging in. I got both the AHG1 and AHG2, and I’m really impressed. I plan to order more because they’ve been so useful!"

"Using this to check my griddle's temperature was eye-opening. It showed me that the griddle wasn't reaching the set temperature. I even verified its accuracy against my oven, and the thermometer proved to be spot on!"

"This thermometer is an excellent surface thermometer with easy-to-read large numbers. The face is spacious, and the color of the digits is very visible."

"I recently set up the Alloxity grill thermometer in my grill because the old thermometer stopped showing accurate temperature readings. It responds quickly, providing readings in just 2-3 seconds. Installation was straightforward with no tools required as I replaced an existing gauge. Just a note: if your grill doesn’t have a hole, you’ll need to drill one. The probe length is 1.69 inches, which works well for my needs. I appreciate the air hole for moisture escape, preventing fogging on the thermometer. Overall, I highly recommend the Alloxity grill thermometer for anyone looking to improve their grilling experience."

"I got this thermometer to replace the one on my Weber Genesis 310. While it’s not a direct replacement, it fits and functions well enough to cook with and is much cheaper than the OEM part. The instructions included a calibration procedure in boiling water, but since it only goes down to 50°F, I left it alone as it’s good enough for my needs. At this price point, I give it 5 stars but would rate it 4 for accuracy."

"This was a perfect replacement for the temp gauge that came with the Weber Genesis 300 series grill. It fits right into the original bezel and the probe end just makes it through the opening. I really like how it looks on the grill."

“I had an issue with my 8-year-old Genesis' thermometer, but this replacement works perfectly! Accurate temp readings and worth the extra money compared to cheaper options. Great build quality and installation was straightforward.”

“I replaced the thermometer on my 2008 Genesis grill. The previous one failed after water got in, but this OEM part fits perfectly and was easy to install. It functions just like the original.”

“I switched out the original thermometer on my 10+ year old Weber Genesis grill. The new one fits perfectly and was easy to install. I opted for the Weber OEM over a cheaper alternative because I value quality. I’d definitely buy it again.”

"I use this for checking the temperature of my stainless steel sauté pans. It saves me water and helps me avoid forgetting the pan on the stove. It's not the intended use, but it works great for me!"

"I’ve found this thermometer to be accurate enough for grill temps. However, it’s quite slow to register the temperature, and I often finish cooking before the dial reflects the grill’s heat."

"This device has significantly improved my cooking. I no longer add ingredients before my pan is hot enough—it's made a real difference in my technique!"

"I don't pay much attention to the colored temperature zones, but the accuracy is impressive. I tested it alongside my probe thermometer, and it was dead on. I replaced my old one after it got condensation inside, and I'm very happy with this purchase; it fits perfectly and was a great price."

"After drilling a hole, I found it easy to install. It really takes the guesswork out of smoking temperatures."

"This grill gauge seems to be made from heavy-duty stainless steel, and the readings are clear and bold. It withstands rain and shine without any rust. Installation was straightforward, and the size fits perfectly on my small grill. I highly recommend this product for its durability and safety!"

"I needed a remote-reading meat thermometer to monitor meats cooking on the grill, in the smoker, and in the oven. The ratings were excellent for this one and the price was right, so I decided to buy it. After several uses, I've had excellent results. The remote range worked perfectly throughout my 2400 sq ft house, and the accuracy was within 2 degrees F. I appreciate the robust probes and the fact that it comes with 3 probes for different doneness preferences."

"As a new smoker, I'm really glad I ordered this thermometer. It works very well for me, although the instructions were quite confusing. However, the fantastic remote range allows me to monitor the smoker's temperature and check on my meat from inside the house, which is a huge plus."

"I've had this thermometer for a little over a year now. I frequently use it for quick cooks and longer smoking sessions. It's accurate and easy to use, with the original batteries still lasting well. The receiver's range is impressive—often set up 40-50 feet away, and I still maintain a connection. My only minor complaint is that the probes can stick in the meat, but overall, I'm very satisfied."

"I was initially skeptical due to the low price, but when they arrived, I found them well-packaged. I used them in my home-built smoker and even after a hot burn that blackened them, they still seem accurate."

"My husband rebuilt an old pit, and the new gauges worked perfectly for him. They really did the job."

"I didn't need all three, but the price was too good to pass up. I checked them against an oven thermometer and they were all accurate. I ended up using one for my pellet grill and kept the others as spares."
