good little thermometer,
I have had the Maverick for almost a year and I am well pleased with it. I read some of the reviews before purchasing and saw the problems with the cables so I ordered the one designed for BBQ and smokers, with the steel braided cable. I use this primarily in the oven in the house. In fact it stays in the oven all the time. The opening and closing of the door has not affected the cable. I also rarely turn it off. I keep it on the non-averaging mode so it shows current actual tempurature. I replaced the AAA battery (regular batery non-alcaline)for the first time last week after it had been on for the best part of 10 months, 24/7. I don’t have a good way to validate its accuracy other than looking at the way baked goods come out after I use the Maverick to adjust the oven temp. On that basis I find it to be accurate. I am happy enough with this to order a Maverick for my son.

|A workhorse,
I bought this to monitor the temperature in my smoker. Smoking a pork shoulder for ten hours or so requires strict temperature control and this little device has proved invaluable. There are more elaborate models out there that have more functions but this one is just a simple thermometer with an alarm setting that will beep when your desired temp is reached if you want as well as a timer function. It’s accurate and it works but the real reason I rate it so highly is I forgot about it and left it outside all last winter! This thing endured some nasty weather and you know what? It still works! I didn’t even need to replace the battery! I’m very impressed with this thing’s durability and I highly recommend it.

|Works as Stated,
No complaints. My wife has thought for years that the kitchen oven was running hot. By using our new Maverick, I was able to verify that the oven was indeed hot by 12 to 20 degrees – depending on the temperature. Per oven instuctions, I lowered the temperature scale by 15 degrees. Now she’s happy.
I was going to remove a star because the product documentation, although well written, did not give an accuracy tolerance.
But on the Maverick website ([...]) it is stated (in response to a question): “All of our digital thermometers have a tolerance of +/- (3-4) degrees F…”.
