Amazon.com Review
Taylor’s innovative remote thermometer lets the home chef monitor cooking without being tied to the kitchen. A durable transmitter and accompanying pager work in tandem to ensure meat is never overdone. To operate, insert the transmitter’s 6-inch steel probe into the main course and place it in the oven. The probe’s heat resistant chord travels from inside the oven, past a closed oven door, and connects to the transmitter sitting on a nearby countertop. Control settings can be set by type of meat or user-selected temperature. When ready, the transmitter sends a signal--reaching up to 120 feet--to trigger an audible alarm. If temperature monitoring is not needed, the versatile base unit can also function as a simple timer. Both transmitter and pager feature sturdy plastic construction and offer a clear digital number display. The transmitter requires one 9-volt battery while the pager runs with two AAAs--batteries not included with purchase. This product can be used when oven cooking or grilling and comes with a 1-year warranty. -- Amy Arnold

Good but not perfect, not perfect by far.
I purchased this probe thermometer because I started getting into real barbecuing, I mean meat smoking. It works pretty good. The temperatures are not as accurate as most instant read thermometer's, but then again, you can't leave an instant read thermometer in your oven. The alarm is annoying... it goes off all the time when you use the probe thermometer remote unit. I don't know if it's just not walking on to the main unit while walking around the house, or what. I was standing 3 feet away from my oven and the main thermometer unit and the remote unit kept alarming telling me that I was out of range. See what I mean, annoying. However, compared to the rest that I looked at... it is decent in the price isn't too bad comparison to the other units that are like this one. One thing you will want to do, purchased an extra probe cable. They get kind of dirty and they're a little bit difficult to clean. They're good for several uses, but after awhile the actual chord gets a bit gunky. All in all... I would recommend this unit... but I think probe thermometer's are far from perfect. Nice gadget to have around the house, though.

Overall Great, occassional reset needed
Overall this has served us well. The receiver has never had trouble connecting to the main box. The construction, while cheap-looking white plastic, looks like it will hold together fine for quite a while.

The only big problem we have had is that sometimes it locks up and won't tell u the right temperature. I find this in a couple of instances, but not totally sure of the cause. If the Meat is already been cooking for a while in the oven, the device seems to get confused. The confusion can happen a couple different ways, but the end result is that you have to unplug everything, re-seat the cord, and wiggle it a little, make sure it's in good, and then it seems to work again. Sometimes re-seating the batteries helps too. I thought it was hopelessly broken a couple times, only to put it down and pick it up weeks later, and it's fine.
go figure! still works great when it's working.

Really no stars
Product read 140 degrees on meat that was directly out of fridgerator. With in 1 minute product read 150 degrees. didn't work at all can't tell you if it ever read right due to BQ fire.
