This review is a combined review for the PT12 model and the Pro, I purchases the PT12 back in 2015 because I wanted a accurate instant read thermometer but based on my use case I couldn't bring myself to spend the $100 on a Thermoworks (although I thought long about it...). This seemed like a good substitute for the price point so I went with it. I'm glad I did, as it quickly out performed the CDN device that I was using, as well as other thermometer gadgets around the house. After making sure that it was accurate (boiling water test) I found it to be much faster than those other devices, and more accurate, taking anywhere from 3-5 seconds to come within a degree or two of the food temp, and then another 5 seconds or so to to level out at the final temp. Not really instant, but good enough for my uses. And once the probe/sensor is "warmed up" (meaning its not starting from 60 degrees) subsequent checks go much faster (like when you're moving from burger to burger or steak to steak on the grill). The small size made it perfect for having in a pocket and the built in magnet makes it easy to store on the fridge or side of the grill. Overall I was so happy with this that I purchased a second one (one to keep by the grills, one for the kitchen), and was equally satisfied with that purchase. So much so, that when the original went missing for several months (it eventually turned up) I went to purchase a third one. By this point Lavatools had introduced their Pro model, so I went with that one. Again, happy I did, as this model was a worthwhile upgrade to the PT12's. Much faster return on food temps, providing a temp within 2 seconds and leveling out at 5. Much closer to what I would expect an instant read to perform. The large display, backlight and longer probe are great additions. It's certainly much beefier feeling than its little brother, but not so that its cumbersome or clumsy to use.All in all I'm very pleased by these purchases and would highly recommend them for the products that they are, in this price point. And, of course, the Amazon experience in researching, purchasing and delivery of these was also great

Probably the best in his class, very accurate, fast (2-5 seconds reading). I have it for several weeks and use it many times with different foods (meat, poultry, pork, fish) no complaints.

This is my second one of these. They are accurate, fast and easy to read. Just make sure you don’t submerge the whole thing in water when washing.

I bought the Sesame-colored thermometer in September 2018 (for $25) and only started using it since Spring 2023, but it still holds up today (over five years later)! Now I use it almost daily for indoor grilling and it does the job; as soon as the probe is out the display starts moving and then reflects the surrounding temperature in 2-3 seconds and has never blinked or gone out. It has also been reliable and trusty; I have cooked my food down to even the minimum safe recommended temperature and luckily (assuming all else is equal) have never felt ill from my food or as if it was undercooked, making this thermometer reasonably accurate in my opinion. It also sticks well to the refrigerator/freezer and my steel silverware and is otherwise sturdy; sometimes I swing and thrust it about like a rapier and the probe and housing remain perfectly functional and intact. Granted it may not last as long as the advertised 4000+-hour battery life due to disuse, I only use it for about five minutes a day, and the messiest it has gotten was having tiny grease spots on the display, it currently shows no signs of slowing down and I trust it will continue to work well for quite some time to come. Overall I give the “Lavatools PT12 Javelin Ultra Fast Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer for Grill and Cooking, 2.75" Probe, Compact Foldable Design, Large Display, Splash Resistant – Sesame” a respectable 4/5 stars!

Ya tengo con el más de 2 años y sigue funcionando igual, y solo le he cambiado una vez la pila.

Not "instant", but then none really are. It takes 2-3 seconds to give a stable reading, but it is consistent and faster response than any that I have used previously. Easy to use and read the display. Probe folds out to turn on and in to turn it off. I like the internal magnet to hold it in place on steel surfaces. It works great on the side of the stove or barbeque. I have already recommended this to several other people.

Instant temperature readings which seem to be accurate and reliable. It has definitely helped with cooking meat so it's not overdone and dry. I like that it comes in a range of colours and has a magnet so it can attach to the fridge/front of oven. The hinge mechanism is still working, which is what broke on a slightly cheaper different brand I had before. I paid £15.29 for this in August 2024. I would buy this again if it did break.
