Review: Great for outdoor grilling! - This little probe has improved my grilling results by taking the guesswork out of measuring done-ness. It registers temperature quickly, usually under 3 seconds, and the display is bright enough to see even in the crazy bright North Carolina summer sunshine, yet not blinding in the dark of night. Results are slightly slower in colder weather, and can take up to 8 seconds or so if it's in the 50-60 degree F range, but that is to be expected due to the cooler initial probe temperature. I have not tried this in the dead of winter and the time will probably be up to 30 seconds if the probe begins the measurement from freezing. The folding construction is nice and keeps the very sharp probe tip from accidentally skewering fingers, and the effort required to open and close it feel appropriate to hold the probe at any angle, from fully closed to fully open. Folded or open, it weighs appropriately for its size and feels good in-hand. Default temp scale is chosen with a physical switch, so it stays at the units you select, Fahrenheit or Celsius (it is inside the water-resistant battery door, so it's a set-and-forget option) and a handy magnet allows mounting on the side of the grill's tray (not the hot part--it would melt) or your fridge. The display intelligently flips to enable reading no matter which angle you are holding it at, but if you take readings with the unit being almost flat on its back, it is possible to see the display flip to display numbers upside down. Fortunately, a slight change of angle is all that's needed to set the display right. There is a hold button on the front of the display which will pause the temperature reading from changing for those who may have trouble registering the value when the display temperature changes quickly or is useful to keep the temperature on screen if you had to put the probe in the roast at an angle where seeing the display was difficult. Hold time is around 1.5 seconds. A handy key for temperatures of various meats is on the back by type, but only for common meats, so if you're making Brontosaurus burgers, you'll have to do your own research. No complaints here about this handy, compact, functional product! I've owned this product for around 4 months with no battery changes (it's 1xAAA) required yet, and I am happy to recommend it!
Review: Easy to use and see - I purchased this thermometer to temp the water when I bathe my dog. I have read the ideal temp for dogs is around 78 degrees which is much colder than what I consider a comfortable temp. For years and prior to researching best temp for dog bath, I assumed because their body temp norm is 101 vs humans being 98.6, a good temp for bath water would be what was comfortable to slightly warm for me. It seems my assumption was incorrect. I generally lather and rinse three times and am turning the water off and on multiple times so I wanted an easy, quick and accurate way to ensure a comfortable water temp. I also wanted to be able to see the temp without glasses, and, of course, being waterproof was essential as well as registering the temp quickly. I had some concern of how much of the probe would need to be in contact with the water to register an accurate temp since I was limited to just the flow from the faucet. It registers the temp with ease when o place the tip of the probe into the faucet’s stream. It produces temperature immediately and the large LCD screen is very easily read. I am very pleased with this thermometer and definitely recommend it to be used in a conventional sense or, as I do, in. A non-conventional manner.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use this to take the temperature of hot oil?**
A: Yes. I've used it to check the temperature of oil that I was using for deep frying on my grill. No problems.

**Q: What is the difference between the tp 18 and tp 19**
A: I have them both and to me the 19 is built better, and gives you the temperature A LOT faster! When using the 18 I find the temperature going up and down awhile before settling down and giving the actual temperature, while the 19 will go up and down just a couple of seconds before giving the actual temperature. I have 8 or 9 instant read thermometers and so far the Thermo Pro 19 is one of the best I have! The Thermowoks is probably the best on the market, but the Mark 4 is going to run you around $65 to $70 dollars, and their new one will run you $100.00 dollars minimum!

**Q: Can you test soup with this?**
A: You could use this to check the temp of your soup or it's contents.  I wouldn't leave it in the soup with the other end on a counter or cooktop area.

**Q: Is this nsf certified?**
A: Not sure

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tough and waterproof
*by A***N on July 7, 2026*

Last one broke and bought another. I use these in a professional setting and my last one lasted a bit longer than a year but took many many bearings. For the price it's my preferred product. I liked the temppro with a programable temperature alarm but those are not water proof. Last one of these I bought got melted, still worked and still was water proof, funny enough what gave out was the screw for the battery somehow stripped itself and the motion sensor was slightly faulty after a while but this was easily fixed with a quick WHACK (like I said it took many beatings) For the price range it's my preferred product as a professional
