Escali DH1 Gourmet Digital Meat Thermometer with Extra Long Probe, NSF Certified, Blue

I use this every day. I work in a busy kitchen where it is necessary to temp constantly. Though it is just a bit long and sticks up worn in my chef coat sleeve, the utility of the length is great. It will reach to the back of the oven, bottom of the pot or probe the large protein cuts with ease. It has a simple on and off button and no other useless functions that just get in the way. The display is also straightforward and easy to read while you're in the weeds. The sleeve has a great temp reference guide and I can see how it would be a great addition to the home kitchen or by the grill when you're looking for the perfect mid-rare.

I love the size of this thermometer, the body is made of stainless steel, and you can set the preference of either Celsius or Farenight when you install the buttery which is included.

Works great but the lcd screen has started to blank out occasionally :/

I'm a professional chef. I cook for a high end restaurant and I've used many different styles/price ranges of thermometers. This one is hands down one the best and is so much cheaper. I honestly just bought it because my $80 insta read broke and I just needed a temporary replacement for work. But I will not be replacing this one. It works equally as well as the previous one I had. The only 2 negative things I can say about it are1. The probe is a little thicker than I'd like2. DO NOT use the temperature guide printed on it. You will absolutely ruin a steak if you're cooking it that hot

Reads temps instantly and accurately.

Item failed to work after washing with very little soap and water. Didn't wash the mechanism at all, just the metal stem. Changed battery and still nothing. Ordered the exact same item and received a different thermometer that was black and a different model. I returned it then tried again hoping they made an error on shipping. Nope. Received the same wrong one again. My wife likes the blue one but I received a black one of a different model twice. I have one strike left. If I get the wrong model again I will give up and never order it again. Dang! Wish me luck!

Would have been great if we didn’t need a tiny screwdriver just to put the battery in… I can’t even use it until then and the stick temp is oddly the thickest I’ve seen so far.. I’m not trying to blow out what I’m temping at work but I’m unhappy with needing the screwdriver so I have yet to give a proper review.

This is a piece of equipment I was able to order for work through an approved restaurant supplier. It was sooooo nice when I got it at work, that when shopping for a new thermometer for home use, I tried to find the same model on Amazon. It’s amazing. Feels so nice in your hands and is super accurate, works perfectly, sleek design, accurate temps. Battery life is great. It auto shuts off it’ll let you forget to turn off manually which I love when at work bc employees forget to turn it off all the time and it doesn’t drain battery.
