Replaces my beloved Classic that I gave to my son - this one is noticeably faster. I also like the backlight - but I wish that I could adjust the timeout of that (just about everything else is customisable) - as it’ll be useful to have it on longer when I froth milk for coffee. If there was an option I’d give it a 4.5
Replaced my last one after 7 years
Purchased the lanyard for the thermapen IR. It’s great to carry around your neck or magnet onto the BBQ. The only gripe is it doesn’t fit quite as well as it should due to the shape of the IR version being slightly bigger towards the bottom of the hand grip. But overall very pleased.
Purchased a flat grill for BBQ and needed a way to measure surface temperature and food temperature so the IR pen seems like the ideal combination. It’s works really well and can change between food temperature with the probe and surface temp with the IR function in one device. Easy to read as the display flips to whichever orientation you need. Really pleased with my purchase.
I realise now how over cooked some of my meals have been in the past, things are at the right temperature much quicker than I imagined, I’m looking forward to achieving an accurate medium rare finish on a beef rib joint this weekend.
