Reviews
I love ThermoWorks, but. . . .
"I have loved my ThermaPen ONE for years. The Smoke X4 is good, but it would be a lot better if the buttons had better descriptions on some of them (like on turning on the remote device or syncing the devices. I think for this price, it should have included some kind of case to help keep all the cables more organized. It's still a very solid piece of engineering."
Smoke X4 w/ Billows
"Works great on my Old Country Gravity fed. I was looking for a controller where I did not have to rely on WiFi or Bluetooth to maintain my temps. I have used it twice so far and was still able to monitor my temps while walking around and talking at each event. Held temp very well and helped get my temps right back up to where they need to be after opening."
I have had this setup
"I have had this setup for years now. Just bought the same setup as a gift. It works so smoothly and takes the stress out of long cooks."
They are great! I bought
"They are great! I bought 2 sets!! One for each smoker. Once I add a third smoker I will buy another set."
Cat’s Meow
"This thing is absolutely worth every penny! Receiver maintains signal through multiple buildings for me. Highly recommend"
They worked well first time
"First time I used them they worked well. It was my fault for having the probes too close to the bone and I pulled too early."
"Love this thermometer can set alarms for high and low temps and just let the meat smoke."
It's great, but!!!
"Honestly, love this kitchen gadget! The connectivity is great, but thermometers are horrible! I've constantly had to swap to a different one so I can get an accurate reading! After spending the money, I feel like I had a better product with a cheaper set. I've always hand washed this product, but I think I'll be moving to a different manufacturer for better quality!"
Perfect
"Love it works to perfection!!"
Very Reliable and long range temps
"Very happy with this unit being able to monitor a long way and have accurate temps."
