You buy it, reading the product packaging and name that states it is "instant read." Then you come home, open it up, read the instructions and discover that it is NOT "instant read" after all. Only after getting to page 7 of the instruction booklet do you discover that it is in fact "15 second read." Weber could have said "quick read." Try and find a definition of "instant" that would include a timespan of 15 seconds. You won't.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I wanted to check the temp accuracy of this thermometer. I placed the probe 2 inches into a pot of boiling water that boils at 212°. The thermometer read 209°. I need to add 3°."Just saying".

I bought it two weeks ago, used it twice and the display does not work. Cannot get the battery screw to open without stripping and figured its not worth the time and effort to wait for a battery to arrive. Disappointed that Weber would put their name on this.

I have had them for years they work and I can replace if needed. I have the popular one that is expensive but I like these ones I use them for my smoker and my grill. Also I have a separate one for my fish room to check water temperature and they also are just as good is what is in that hobby
bought last summer, used a few times, would not turn on, changed batter, and still won't turn on!
