Product Description: This is the original Super-Fast Thermapen in the color red. Originally designed for professional users, the Super-Fast Thermapen is chosen by restaurant chains, health inspectors, quality managers and chefs all over the world. The clever pocket design replaces more costly and bulky handheld thermometers while using the same professional thermocouple technology. The Super-Fast Thermapen displays actual internal food or liquid temperatures in only 3 or 4 seconds. Other thermometers make you wait another 20 seconds or more to catch up to the Thermapen. That's a huge difference in a fast paced commercial kitchen or when you're over a hot grill. If you're cooking an expensive cut of meat you want a perfect outcome. You don't want a slow temperature reading that might be misinterpreted and your meat overcooked. A must-have for the serious cook, restaurants or professional chef. So easy to use! The instrument is switched on by unfolding the probe whereby the display illuminates. Folding the probe back will turn off the unit. The Thermapen will shut itself off automatically after a few minutes if left on. When using, the very tip should be immersed or penetrated to at least 1/8 inch. The plastic housing it not waterproof, so care should be taken when cleaning. It comes with a battery so you can use immediately. Ask about the protective vinyl wallet case or the leather case, sold separately. Customer Reviews: Rating:

Expensive - but well worth the price
This thermometer is well more than twice the price of others so I resisted buying one for years. But after finally succumbing, I can say it is well worth the price. The near-instant reading is very satisfying and gives you the opportunity to probe several sites in, say, a whole chicken. My only suggestion is that they offer a left-handed model - invariably I deploy it initially with my left hand only to discover (yet again) that the display is on the bottom. Rating:

Must have
If you're serious about cooking you must have one of these in your kitchen. I'm very serious about BBQ and grilling and after reading many recommendations for these on the BBQ Forum I bought one of these a year ago. No more guesswork, no more waiting 30 seconds or more for the thermometer to stabilize, just near instant completely accurate temps. I can't recommend it highly enough. Don't get it wet or handle it roughly and it will last for years. Rating:

Worth Every Penny
Every kitchen should have a digital thermometer and every cook should use one. It a must for determining if poultry and meat is done, it is handy for telling if those leftovers in the microwave are hot, and if the frying oil is up to temperature...plus so much more!
Cooks Illustrated got it right! This is the one to get if you (or Santa) can afford it. I've tried several other digital models over the years. My biggest gripes about most of those were slow response time and narrow temp range. The CDN DTQ 450 is a close 2nd, but this one is the best.
I've had this model (in grey) for about a year and a half and it functions flawlessly. It reads fast, has a big read-out and is comfortable to hold. The only gripe I have is that is has no "temp hold" feature. It registers so fast that by the time you pull it out of the roast and out of the oven to read it, it has changed.
The old adages are correct: "You get what you pay for." and "The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten."

Almost perfect
I've used this is great thermometer for over a year and it's been nearly flawless. The only drawback is that the LCD display does not like to get wet. If it gets damp and you don't dry it off immediately, you will get unreliable readings or none at all. As other reviewers mentioned, don't wash the Thermapen body or use it in the rain.
Other than that, it is fast and accurate as others have stated.
BTW, Thermaworks has great customer service (guess how I know that). Rating:
